==Covert Ops: Orbital==

===BRIEFING===

'''Eliza Cho:'''  We are pleased, ''[[Sang-wei]]''.  Most pleased.  You destroyed the [[House_Davion|Davion]] forces almost as well as you destroyed my son’s.

'''Jason Cho:'''  You compliment him for killing my men?!!

'''Eliza:'''  Mind your temper, my son.  To the mercenary, war is a business, and on [[Carver V]], business is good, isn’t it?  The civil war we engineered will cleanse our planet and fill your pockets.

'''Jason:'''  I have sent your Tactical Officer my plans for your next operations.  Meanwhile, I will be leading the primary attacks myself.

'''Diaz:'''  I got their instructions, sir.  I’ve also got this wideband transmission.  It’s been broadcast over and over for the last hour.  

'''Baxter:'''  The bickering between noble Houses is costing us our friends and families.  Our planet has changed hands too often.  We are no longer [[House_Liao|Liao]] or [[Federated_Commonwealth|FedCom]] or [[House_Steiner|Steiner]] or Davion.  We will not be bullied, imprisoned, or traded off like winnings in a game.  Citizens of Carver V, join us!  Fight for your independence!

'''Diaz:'''  I know what you’re thinking, sir, but there’s no money in it.  Let’s get back to work.

'''Diaz:'''  Infiltrate behind enemy lines and disable [[Space_Defense_System#Planetary_Elements|Orbital Guns]] protecting Steiner air space.

Commander:

We have a rare opportunity before us that requires your expertise.  One of our deep operatives in the Marko Sector has reported that a routine guard rotation has gone awry, and the sector’s main defenses are delayed for a span of ten hours.  There are four Orbital Guns in the area.  If they can be disabled, Steiner’s air space will be vulnerable to our satellites and [[DropShip]]s.

This sector is deep into Steiner territory, and the Orbital Guns will not allow a DropShip to land; however, we can airlift a small tonnage of ‘Mechs to this location, enough to deal with the handful of defenders currently guarding the Orbital Guns.  Once the Orbital Guns have been destroyed, we will have a DropShip ready to extract your task force.

Honor and ''[[Xin Sheng]]''.

'''Tactical Officer Notes:''' Sir, remember this mission is behind enemy lines.  That means we’ll get no air support whatsoever, so our deployment team is on its own.  I suggest taking a jump-capable ‘Mech; we’ll have to rely on capture tactics and mobility rather than brute force.

===DURING MISSION===

'''Liao Operative:'''  I'm uploading the location of all Orbital Guns in this area, along with several secondary objectives that may help you with your mission.  Now listen, one of the guns is a [[Rattler|Mobile Orbital Gun]].  It could be anywhere.  That's all I got.
