## Interactions
- Drone recon identified a new WoB FOB; GSF planned an artillery shelling followed by strike elements.
- The site suffered major damage, but the GSF encountered two Level II BattleMech units plus three lances of mercenary/pirate BattleMechs and an additional reinforced lance that recon had shown earlier.
- The Bounty Hunter (Max Pain) drew significant fire during the engagement, diverting shots away from GSF units.
- Tai-i Kalakaua sent a mixed lance to provide security for the artillery units.
- Road’s Warriors suffered the loss of a Bandit Hover Transport and one Battle Armor trooper; Tai-i Roads was wounded and hospitalized. One of his BattleMechs requires heavy repair.
- The Eagle’s Tears did not participate due to technical issues. Winter’s Dream remained in reserve. Arkab units remained in training and did not take part.
## Rewards / Salvage
