The 1st Robinson Rangers is a solid unit with some very capable pilots. I've dropped both with them and against them... I would advise the former!

Looking to add some excitement to your drops? The Robinson Rangers Brigade has the solution you're looking for!

Over the past month the RRB has been running an event known as Operation Broken Arrow. This event uses coordinated lance play to simulate objective-based combat within MWO, and give players a chance to contribute to an overarching story line. Here's an excerpt from one of the weekly news reports generated by the actions of our participants:

Quote

The fighting on Royal intensified this week as the Robinson Rangers Brigade's operational tempo against the DCMS mounted. RRB operations this week were spearheaded by elements from 2nd Regiment's Lima Company, who took it upon themselves to organize one of the most complicated missions that Operation Broken Arrow has seen to date.

The week began on April 3rd when a lance of battlemechs from 3rd Regiment's Black Company, composed of Sgt. Duncan "Volts" Campbell piloting a Catapult K2, Sgt. Willie "Zeige" Arsenault piloting a Trebuchet 7K and Cpl. Barega "Akagi" Singh in a Jenner D, and commanded by Ltc. Arthur "Artgathan" Dent piloting a Centurion A took to the field to secure Baker Site for the RRB. Their mission was a success, and the medium Lance was able to drive the DCMS from the area, securing Baker site to act as a Forward Operating Base for subsequent operations. During the attack Ltc. Artgathan's Cenutrion sustained critical damage, though five DCMS battlemechs were felled, and many more damaged, by Black Company.

Subsequently on April 4th, Ltc. Artgathan took the field once again, this time piloting a Jenner F in command of a lance composed of Major Ryan "Reneth" Rovnak piloting a custom Firestarter E, Sgt. Daniel "Requiem" M. piloting a Shadowhawk 2D2 and Col. Legothos in a Wolverine 6R. The lance was deployed to harass DCMS forces in the vicinity of FOB Baker, the site secured the previous evening, so that the RRB could occupy the location and establish the FOB. During the fighting the battlemechs belonging to Sgt. Requiem and Col. Legothos were critically damaged, though this cost the DCMS forces an entire lance of battlemechs. Salvage crews are currently on site attempting to recover both mechs.

Then, on April 7th, Lima Company took to the field in the most complicated mission that Operation Broken Arrow has seen thus far. The mission was a raid, targeting a heavily defended DCMS Supply Depot 100 kilometers northeast of FOB Baker. To accomplish this mission, Lima Company divided into two lances. The first lance, composed of Major Brynar - commanding the lance from a Stalker 3F - Cpl. Ghost Rider and Rct. InocentKiller, both piloting Atlas D-DCs and Cpl. Marian "Mercenarie" Kol in a custom Victor DS, was sent to provide a distraction to allow a second lance to penetrate the DCMS Supply Depot. Major Brynar's lance inflicted heavy damage on the DCMS forces, drawing them away from the depot. The second lance, commanded by PFC. Leaky Walnut, piloting a Jenner F, and composed of Cpl. Curtis "HadleyHope" Hadley piloting a Locust 3S, and Rct. Marc "Kesmai" Curaitis and Sgt. KitCat - both piloting Spider 5Ds, was able to slip into the depot accompanied by the 452nd Infantry Regiment's Alpha Company and extract with large amount of DCMS supplies.

When reached for comment about the mission, Cpl. HadleyHope had this to say: "These fast mechs are great for reconnaissance so will you Assault guys stop using them for Gauss Rifle rounds! We had great planning for this mission, the heavy lance [Major Brynar's Lance] was extremely bold in engaging the DCMS forces and keeping them distracted while the raiders [PFC. Leaky Walnut's Lance] operated mainly unnoticed under cover of ECM. The heavy lance had inflicted so much damage on the DCMS that the raiders on their way back to extraction point we were able to finish off 5 enemy mechs."

Review of the Battle ROMs from the involved mechs has confirmed at least one kill for Cpl. HadleyHope's Locust.

The success of Lima Company's raid has increased RRB HQ's confidence in the feasibility of multi-lance operations, and they have suggested that Operation Broken Arrow is likely to see more in the future.

Despite this string of successes, the DCMS forces on Royal do not appear to be giving up the battle just yet. The RRB has received word of an impending attack on an airfield belonging to the 10th FedCom RCT in the vicinity of Baron's Harbor. If the RRB is not able to intercept this force they may lose access to the areospace support being supplied to them by the 10th FedCom RCT.

Reporting live from Royal, this is Joseph Fisher, signing off.


The event also involves players outside of the game, requiring the decryption of encoded messages and some clever investigation to determine the identity of an enemy unit. There are ample opportunities for role-playing (for those interested) as well!

The even is still ongoing and open to all Rangers, and only one of the many different types of events that the RRB runs. If you're curious to know more, join today!
