Initiative Movement

Players roll at the beginning of every turn for Tactical Initiative of the battlefield. The player who wins Initiative gains two advantages:

Each map is a 3 Zone by 3 Zone grid of 9 Zones total. The zones are numbers 1 through 9, left to right, top to bottom. The terrain of each Zone is determined by the Scenario. Meks and other ground vehicles may move one zone per turn, unless the zone is occupied by the enemy. Units must either defeat the enemy in combat or successfully break contact through maneuver, in order to continue to move out of a zone.

Terrain Movement To-Hit

Plain/Desert 0 0

Wood -1 -1

Urban -2 -2

Highlands -2 -1

Moors -1 -1 (+1 Chassis Heat)

All combat with a Zone is simultaneous, with both players making their respective roll at the same time during each phase.

Both sides roll movement dice, adjust based on Terrain modifiers.

The player with the highest roll may adjust the range by one.

Units at Long range may break contact if they win the roll.

Players with Movement rolls greater than twice that of the enemy’s may adjust range by two OR double the To-Hit Terrain modifier.

The Sensor systems carried by Meks determine the range at which they may fire on the enemy(Targeting), and the type of units they are fighting (ID). An enemy may not be attacked until they are in targeting range, which is dependant upon the class of sensors used and the masking characteristic of the enemy.

Masking: Basic) Tgt-Med(4+), ID-Short(4+)

Imp) Tgt-Long(4+), ID-Med(3+)

Adv) Tgt-Long(2+), ID-Long(2+)

Units may only fire on ONE enemy unit per turn. Each weapon may be fired once per turn.

Player rolls equal-to or greater-than the To-Hit number.

Target makes an Armor Save if they roll equal-to or greater-than AR number.

Failed Armor Save means the Target takes 1 Hit of damage.

Target suffers a Critical Hit if 1d6 roll greater-than it’s current Hits.

1 Pilot Wounded roll (5+) to do anything

2 Leg Damaged -1 to Movement roll

3 Weapon 1 Random Weapon destroyed

4 Reactor Core Mek will explode on roll of (1-3)

5 Computers Mek is -1 to hit on all attacks next turn

6 System Lost 1 non-Armor system destroyed

Every mek has a heat rating associated with its design. This is the highest number of heat units the mek can use in one turn without overheating. If a mek fires more weapons than its heat rating allows in one turn, there is an increasing risk of overheating. Each time you fire a weapon above your mek's heat rating, roll a die (the overheat roll); if it comes up less than or equal to the total excess heat units, then the weapon overheated. This must be repeated every time a mek fires a weapon above its heat rating, and the excessive heat units are cumulative. If a weapon overheats, it is automatically destroyed, and it will damage the mek as. Apply 2 Hits of damage for missile weapons, 1 Hit for all other weapons. Overheating automatically fades at the end of each turn; a mek starts each turn with zero heat against it.

Does not move from Zone once emplaced. Infantry may roll 1d6 for maneuver once an enemy is in Zone.

Is not automatically detected or targeted until units successfully make a detection roll, OR Infantry makes an attack. (–1 to detection at Medium range, -2 to detection at Long range)

Infantry attacks do not roll To-Hit, but do roll 1d6 less-than enemy AR; will cause 1 Hit damage to the enemy. Range is Short.

Infantry suffer Kills when attacked, with the amount of damage depending on the weapon: CIWS= (varies)d6, Cannon (3-4=1 kill, 5-6=2 kills), Missiles (4-6=1 kill). Terrain modifiers DO effect rolls vs Infantry.

Following losses, Infantry must make a morale check. Failure to roll greater-than their current Kills, means the Infantry morale breaks and the unit runs from the battlefield. Remove them from the game.

Mercenary Pilots are as an integral part of modern warfare of Meks themselves. Mercs have four differing experience levels. Experience is gained by killing Meks in battle and surviving Campaigns. Experience modifies a Pilot’s Movement, To-Hit, and Skill rolls. After every campaign, pilots may gain the opportunity for new skills. Pilots roll 1d6 equal to or greater than their current number of a skills, in order to gain an additional skill. A Pilot’s first skill may be gained on a roll of (5+).

All new Pilots start as Green, Regular Pilots maybe purchased for 5 Points.

Green -1 Move & To-Hit , no skills may be purchased

A WASP moves into a zone (plains) with a DRAKEN, both sides begin at long range. Units roll for movement, WASP rolls 2d6+2 for (9) DRAKEN rolls 1d6+2 for (7). WASP shortens the range to Medium. WASP’s weapons are not in range, but the DRAKEN’s are; two to-hit rolls are made for the Rail-Cannons, with a –1 due to the WASP’s jammer, (2 and 6), one hit is made. The WASP makes an armor roll, gets (4) and fails. WASP takes 1 hit, makes a critical roll (3), and suffers Leg Damage.

Both Meks make movement rolls again, WASP (8 at -1) and DRAKEN (5), WASP drops range to short. Both Meks open up, WASP attacks with cannon (4) and hits, DRAKEN attacks with two rail-cannon (3, 4 with –1 from jammer) and a hammer-missile (6) for two hits total. The DRAKEN makes an armor save (4) and deflects the enemy hit. The WASP makes two armor saves (5 vs. rail-cannon and 4 at –1 vs. hammer-missile) and suffers one hit. That equals the WASP’s original HIT total, and so the Mek is destroyed.
