Hoplon Company, the First organized company fully formed in cReddit, and the forefront of maneuvering strategy, is recruiting again now that 8-Man groups have returned to the game. Current open positions range across all weight classes, So bring your best mechs and be ready to fall in line during our new playtimes between 4pm and 9:30pm EST and our practice times on Wednesday at 8:30pm and Sunday 6:30pm.

Tactical Overview
SPARTAN, WHAT IS YOUR PROFESSION? WELCOME to Hoplon Company. Our mission, as the premier Company assembled in cReddit, is to stand as our namesake, the Hoplon shield and perform as the most reliable element of cReddit. Victory first, Glory second, Profit always. This Company is designed from top to bottom to function against any opponent on any map in on any planet, and to carry the goals of cReddit and our contracts forward with stalwart consistency. As a Hoplon you are expected to be versatile, effective, and worthy to be the face of our great corporation.

Lance Disposition

Phalanx Lance, The Brigaidiersmen
This is the original folks. Phalanx Lance is Lance 01, and commanded by none other than Rathe himself. As such, Phalanx represents the command we must maintain over the battlefield, and will bring up the rear in most engagements. Members of this unit are expected to carry out long range attacks on called targets, focus on target acquisition and sustained DPS, and to maintain a distance of no less than 500 meters behind Warlords position. Far from a pure LRM lance, however, Phalanx is outfitted with a designated max-speed tagging scout and personal fast attack guard unit. With the exception of the Scout, all members will be required to be damage effective at no less than 800M with at least one weapon grouping. Speed will be variable within the Lance, with only the scout expected to operate at exceptional speeds. The rest of the lance will only need to maintain speeds above 50kph in order to maintain cohesion with Warlord. Further, the fast attack attache' may be attached to Hoplite occasionally for special operations.

Warlord Lance, The Anchor
Warlord is a Lance comprised entirely of Assault pilots, or occasionally Armored Heavy units, which serves as the centerpoint of our tactical map. When in battle, all maneuvers are rubber banded to Warlords position, and will typically only be lateral, favoring Warlords advance as a Spearhead. Warlords Secondary purpose on the battlefield is to remain stationary as a prohibitive force to ensure that enemies will not be able to advance beyond them. The lance is split into two pairs of weapon types, allowing two dedicated close-range Assaults to hold the front line while two more hold a parallel position behind, favoring medium/long range weapons like LRMs, Large Lasers, ect. This configuration is intended to maintain line cohesion by allowing the second line elements to safely engage any fast moving attackers that overrun the front line brawlers. Warlords main focus is to maintain the solidity of our position, whether advancing or standing still.

Hoplite Lance, the Cavalry
The fastest and most versatile overall unit in the Company, Hoplites focus is as it always has been, to play the wild card and win at all costs. Hoplite units are all required to be damage effective at all ranges, and to make use of all weapon types. In the interest of carrying out orders and maneuvers instantaneously, they are also required to be faster than 80kph, regardless of chassis. Hoplite will be primarily used for flanks, flank defense, front line tagging, scout elimination, base captures, and emergency RTB. As a last resort, when Warlord falls, Hoplite will also take up the centerpoint and press the advance.

I posted these blurbs directly from our original Mission Statement from two months ago because it still holds strong today. Hoplons Focus is on lasting victories and consistent performance as cReddits #1 breadwinner when CW hits. If any of these lances are attractive to you, maybe it's time to look at cReddit Merc Corp (www.credditmwo.com), Hoplon Company.
