Name : Mesor
Position : Assassin
Full Name : Lucian Wang
Bio : Lucian was abandoned at the age of 5 and left to fend for himself on the streets. He's quick hands and even quicker feet made him a great thief and he thrived after a fashion in this roll. Getting older he realized he could not remain a thief forever , so he got himself a bow and trained every day to use it and once he decided he was good enough he began looking for work as a bow for hire. After a few small time jobs he was given a chance , he was hired to kill a minor official in a city and jumped at the chance. He has never looked back since and now will kill anybody as long as the price is right. ( Half Selenid on hes fathers side never met hes father. )
Traits or resources : Stealth +1 , Marksmanship +1 , Masterwork bow.

Starting location : Stormstead.
Goal : Build the first assassins cadre , Kill the enemies of the man who paid me.

(( Meh if he turns up again we may not get a choice if it does im pretty sure being magic dosnt stop him from dieing if pieces get blown off. I can hope anyway i recon the remains of a magic monster like you could be worth something. ))

Maybe but there'll be more cops and if we try he can just turn us in. Who would the other cops back?
The guy he caught trying to recruit for a gang.
Or the cop?

Ok we have to clear out 3 buildings.
Barracks , Armory and command center.

Our forces are 5 irregular squads.
An irregular squad is 1 mech and 6 supporting infantry.
Theres our squad plus 4 more 1 will have a centurion class mech which is basically an artillery mech and 3 medium and short range mechs.
We have 5 elementals in power armor there more or less elite close range fighters.
Plus 3 Ssaros storm teams which is 3 pairs of Ssaros with shotguns and and nano sabers.

Once we start im also going to request 3 additional snipers and 12 additional Ssaros be assigned to me but thats down to luck.
I have to request them and attempt to convince the commander to give me the force's if i make a good case for the extra men i get a bonus to the roll for it.

The 3 places we have to clear are all connected by trenches.
They have 2 mech lances which is 8 mechs total and around 170 infantry plus one royal guard.

Ill have an air strike before we launch our assault.

My basic plan is that the irregular unit with the centurion mech aswell as 1 elemental and 1/3 of our Ssaros and if i get the extra men i want 2 snipers to hit the command center but not breach it. They just have to keep the defenders there busy.

Then i want 2 elemental our team plus another irregular squad and another 1/3 of the Ssaros on the armory.

The remaining 1/3 of our forces will hit the barracks.

The command center is most heavily defended so we wont breach it until we have the armory and barracks secure.

Then all 5 of our mechs will close in and bombard the command center.

The infantry force that survive the assault on barracks and armory will use the trenches to breach the command center from the flanks while the remaining infantry assault it head on.

When the enemy mechs get involved assuming the air strike dosnt crush them first or another unit wipes them out our mechs will handle them with infantry fire support if required.

So what we gonna do about the cop trying to blackmail us?
I vote he turns up i sneak up on him and cut he's head off or some other similar end to he's miserable life.

Head for a hill that has a good line of sight over our target's and go prone on top scanning the area carefully for a hill with good cover on the top and clear lines of sight

Open a channel to the theater commander
"Requesting additional force's enemy resistance is stronger then was projected , My platoon is preparing to attack but i request 12 additional Ssaros and 3 snipers be detailed to the platoon for the duration of the assignment to allow us to envelop , our targets and quickly remove our enemies with as few losses as possible , If you require it i can forward you our battle plan which demonstrates clearly that additional force's for our flank force's will dramatically reduce our losses and increase the speed with which we can take our objectives. Seco out , awaiting response."

Order Jane
"Have the squad move to cover on the left side opposite the armory , Focus all long range fire on that building but do not move within enemy effective range until we have air support or reinforcements.
