ZGMF – Please Read!– C.O.C.K. in Action on Monday

Good deal.

Matthew, that means you've got two extra spots on the second Gaw (which I shall refer to as "Big O" from now until the name is ratified ^_^) for MS, and two extra spots for Dopps.

... that isn't what I basically wrote...?

ANDO SHOJI - TAF

* Buy action.
* Transfer RP to Xaviar Brennan.
* Embark on Dragon.
* Allow boarders on Dragon and Stilva.
* Ship action - Dragon and Stilva paradrop and assault Malta in coordination with other Zeon forces.


Buy
1x Gaw "Stilva" (1250 RP)
1x lvl3 pilot for Stilva (200 RP)
7x lvl2 Dopp in Stilva (490 RP)
6x Magella in Stilva (120 RP)
2x Marines in Stilva (20 RP)
1x Zaku Cannon in Dragon (75 RP)
1x Zaku Cannon in Stilva (75 RP)
2x Flight Support (2x 5x Dopp) to assist in Paradrop (100 RP)


Remaining RP - 2946 - (1250+200+490+120+20+100+75+75) = 2946 - 2330 = 616 RP



Transfer RP
I would like to transfer all of my remaining RP (616 RP) to Xaviar Brennan.

Remaining RP - 616 - 616 = 0 RP



Embark on Dragon
I would to board Dragon in preparation for the Paradrop.



Allow Boarders
I am allowing all Zeon PCs (and their MS teams) that are to participate in the Paradrop to board Dragon and Stilva, specifically as such:

Dragon - Yuji Takeshi (Apsalus)
Stilva - Marko Dresner (Dowadge, 2x lvl3 Zaku II J), Ernest Till (Zaku II K, 1x lvl3 Zaku II J, 1x lvl3 Luggan)


Ship Actions (Paradrop + Assault Malta)
Dragon and Stilva are to paradrop from North Africa to Malta and assault the base, along with the purchased flight support. The objective is to capture the base. The deployment list below assumes that if the players involved aren't currently on a vessel that they are listed on, that they will be moving to that vessel to participate in the attack. If they do not do this, unless specially noted we still intend to attack with the forces we do have. The following PCs and NPCs listed under "Allied Forces" are what we expect to be attacking the base with:

* Allied Forces
o Dragon
+ PCs - Markos Steiner (Gouf), Noelle Everett (Dom), Ando Shoji (Zaku II S), Yuji Takeshi (Apsalus)
+ NPCs - 2x lvl2 Marines, 3x Magella, 3x lvl3 Magella, 2x lvl3 Zaku II K, 1x Zaku II K, 1x lvl3 Luggun, 2x Dopp, 5x lvl2 Dopp.
o Stilva
+ PCs - Marko Dresner (Dowadge), Ernest Till (Zaku II K)
+ NPCs - 2x Marines, 6x Magella, 7x lvl2 Dopp, 1x lvl3 Luggan (Ernest Till), 2x lvl3 Zaku II J (Marko Dresner), 1x lvl3 Zaku II J (Ernest Till), 1x Zaku II K
o European Forces
+ PCs - Ritter Novosad (Panzergrenadiers), Rhett Paruta (Zaku II K), Ferusha Glavadeen (Zaku II F)
+ NPCs - 2x lvl2 Zaku II F (Ferusha Glavadeen), 1x Dodai YS (Rhett Paruta), 1x lvl3 Gouf+Dodai YS (Rhett Paruta), 1x Zaku II G (Rhett Paruta), 1x Marines (Ritter Novosad), 2x Panzergrenadiers (Ritter Novosad), U-99 (Ritter Novosad)
o Other
+ 2x Flight Support (purchased in North Africa for paradrop support) - 10x Dopp.
* Strategy
o I will be leading the attack and providing the overall strategy that will be used.
o The attack shall begin as early as possible so that friendly forces may board the vessels they are asked to be on and launch towards Malta, minimizing the risk of the operation being delayed or stalled due to enemy ambush. If a PC is ambushed before they are able to board Dragon or Stilva, the remaining forces are to continue on to conduct the assault.
o U-99, Stilva, and Dragon (and on-board forces) approach Malta from the south.
o Stilva and Dragon, Apsalus, and Dopp escort engage any defending aircraft aggressively and punch through the screen to the island.
+ In the event that the Himalaya and Hillock vessels at Malta attempt to block Stilva and Dragon from dropping troops, the U-99 and its forces are to sink both vessels.
o Stilva and Dragon drop all ground troops in the mountainous / hilly region of Malta to the east of Bormia and Zabbar on the map of Malta on the site.
+ Stilva and Dragon proceed to conduct ground suppression and bombing operations, defended by Apsalus and remaining Dopps.
+ U-99 continues to a position outside of Grand Harbour. From there, its forces will attempt to capture or disable both the Himalaya and the Hillock, and then proceed to attempt to infiltrate the enemy HQ.
o Rhett Paruta and Ferusha Glavadeen are to approach island from the north, and move to Gzira.
o Paradropped artillery suits (Ernest Till, 2x lvl3 Zaku II K, 2x Zaku II K) begin bombardment of installation from mountainous / hilly region.
o Paradropped mobile suits and tanks (3x lvl3 Magella, 9x Magella, Markos Steiner, Noelle Everett, Ando Shoji, Marko Dresner, Ernest Till) defend artillery suits and begin advance towards base from Bormia.
+ Rhett Paruta and Ferusha Glavadeen approach base from Birkirkara.
o Paradropped infantry (2x lvl2 Marines, 2x Marines) proceed towards base by following coast, attempt to group up with Ritter Novosad and his forces and assist in their goals.
o Once destruction of all fixed defenses is confirmed, bombardment is to cease and all units advance towards installation to mop up remaining defenders.



I would like to use the following optional armaments:
280mm Zaku Bazooka (4 rounds per magazine +1 in chamber)
3-Tube Leg Missile Pod (1 round),
Heat Hawk

So it'll be usual "I'm following what that guy says" email followed with our optional armaments? Cool beans. I'll also be sending my RP out tonight. No excuses this time.

I added a little extra to mine besides options and "Follow Ando Shoji's plan."

The Guntank is my primary target once I dismount my Dodai.

Bumping my edit just to make sure Matthew notices.

EDIT: Quick edit after rereading. It does feel like the Himalaya and Hillock are bit lightly tended. Anyway we can devote a little more power to supressing those two? I'm not so much worried about the ships themselves, as the Himalaya's Don Escargots. They'll do a number on the U-99 if we're not careful.
