## Summary The Arkab unit was attacked and needed extraction. Friendly forces, led by the Ironborn in the rescue, secured the surviving Arkab units and evacuated them to a dropship despite heavy losses. ## Quests / Report Arkab forces were pushed from their staging base after sustained harassment. They lost one 'Mech and three vehicles (including the unit commander). A rescue force commanded by the Ironborn retrieved survivors and transported them to the Dropship. Enemy forces did not press too hard after a Kokuryu-kai lance offered assistance to the Ironborn. Complications during the operation included a large sensor dead zone and the presence of a pirate force operating a Raven. ## Interactions OpFor (primary) - TMA-1A Toyama - TDR-9M Thunderbolt - RFL-6X Rifleman - RFL-7M Rifleman - GRF-6S Griffin OpFor (secondary) - WHM-6L Warhammer - CLNT-2-4T Clint - FS9-H Firestarter - RVN-1X Raven - TDR-5S Thunderbolt - BJ-1 Blackjack - UM-R60 Urbanmech - JVN-10N Javelin Black Dragons - NDA-1K No-Dachi - DRG-1G Grand Dragon - WFT-1 Tora - CRB-27 Crab VS - Thunderbolt Defenders — The Eagle's Tears - AV1-OC Avatar — 3/5 - Standard Inner Sphere Battle Armor (A) — 3 - OW-1C Owens (Bravo) — 4/5 - Standard Inner Sphere Battle Armor (C) — 4 Defenders — Ironborn - WVR-7M Wolverine — 3/4 — Captain Lorren “Black Lorren” Botley (XO) - BZK-F3 Hollander — 3/5 Defenders — Road's Warriors / Dragon's Clutch - Cougar B — 3/5 — Shiro “Baka” Musashi - Kage Battle Armor — 4 (4 troopers) - WLF-2 Wolfhound — 4/5 — Talon Sergeant “Talon” Blain - WHM-6D Warhammer — 3/4 — Nakamura - PXH-1D Phoenix Hawk — 3/4 — Hikari Defenders — Arkab Harib - EXT-4C Exterminator — 3/5 — "Bastille" (lance XO) - Standard Inner Sphere Battle Armor (MG) — 4 - MON-66b Mongoose — 4/5 — "R.T."
