December 1, 3063 – Over on our colony of Asmodeus, a military group has begun a raid near our central complex and against a local mining interest. As a reminder, Asmodeus was a world, rich in minerals, we discovered and had a colony begin there. We build a central administrative complex, and then allowed other mining companies to come in and take various parts of the world under their control and build their own DropPorts and mining facilities and they hire their own small garrison from mercs. And we have Utopia Company on planet as our persona garrison.

This is the first raid on Asmodeus. They have unloaded from a transport DropShip – a older Jumbo class DropShip, and are moving out. A company of mechs and another of tanks are slashing through the area. The company of tanks included six Maxim hover personal carriers, that are each carrying a squad of infantry, along with 6 other fast hover scouts to protect and search, and quartet of hover trucks that are used to carry are in the middle protected.

Meanwhile a company of mechs is coming strait at the area garrisoned by Utopia company. We rouse the rest of the force and move them to intercept. This is clearly just a way to keep us otherwise entertained.

After about 30 minutes, battle has begun, but their hover force is already at their target. Here is our unit:


Masakari B
BLR-1GB BattleMaster
CRB-27b Crab
AX-1N Axman

MR-5M Cerberus
Rifleman IIc
CLPT-C1 Catapult
Griffin Iic

ALX-1KC Alexander
CMT-1 Comet
STG-3G Stinger
BUM-1 Bumblebee


This unit include two mechs from Kressly that we designed (Alexander, Bumblebee) as a FrankenMech we like (Comet) as well as three clan mechs (Masakari B, Rifleman IIc, Griffin IIc) and some solid updated mechs (BattleMasters, Crab, Axman, Cerberus). With a good Catapult as level 1 tech (and the Stinger is as well).

We have 5 elite, 4 veteran, and 3 regular in this company.


Our foes:

Grasshopper
Grand Dragon
Wolverine
Javelin
Dart
Hatchetman
Venom
Hercules
Wolf Trap
Maelstrom
Duan Gung
Phoenix Hawk


It’s a very fast unit, with everyone either having jump jets, or at least a 5/8 speed. They are all veteran. No assaults though. Like this Duan Gung!
