We played a game to brush up on the rules. 6000BV trying to stay in ca. 3025-3049.
He did not have time to prepare so went with four shooters-8A (all proxies) I went Battlemaster-1Gb, Black Knight-6b-KNT, Catapult-1C and my one stray into clan era with a Wraith-1.
Thanks to some seriously unlucky dice all four of his mech fell down thanks to one getting two crits in CT, two taking >20 damage and one missed kick. All failed pilot checks...
Never seen that before.
Edit: we did play fast and loose since we were relearning rules and the LGS was closing soon.
Solid tactial decision :)
We claimed the mech, but we only got 50% because others had worked it down to make him flee. But you would not believe what kind of infantry gear you can buy with that! The other half got our mech fighters a handful of replacement sheet metal and change.
