BEevoLI Brechtel aka "Little John Doe" Was excited to be a pilot of a brand new 100 ton ThunderHawk. He and the 100 ton Pillager next to him were waiting on the ridge for a Clan train Convoy that was supposed to be coming. The boredom was about to drive him to sleep when their scanners began showing Two clan mechs and a train at the edge of their vision.
Trees obscured their view of whatever was coming out, but they could tell one clanner was piloting a 85 ton mech and the other appearred to only have 40 tons. The adrenaline began to rush through "Little John" as he told the Pillager to take down the 40 ton annoyance while he focused on the bigger mech. "Little John" knew that the Clan rules of warfare would allow them to focus on one on one combat.
As the 40 ton Dragonfly came out of the trees, the Pillager began ineffectively firing his Gauss rifles. "Little John" began preparing the field by mowing down some trees with his Medium Pulse lasers. He noticed that the Pillager took a headshot and all head armor was gone on that mech, but he stuck with the plan and waited for the larger mech to come into the open.
The 85 ton Clan Warhawk was barely visible through the trees and Little John began firing all he had at it, Missing horribly. He saw out of the corner of his eye that the Pillager was taking damage fast... Then he saw it rock from too much damage and fall, trying to catch itself with its Left arm. THe catch almost worked as the Pillager's head also came crashing into the ground. Without any head left, the Pillager remained motionless for the rest of the battle.
Panic broke in as the Warhawk began melting away Little John's thunderhawk's armor. This was not the way it was supposed to go, they started the fight with almost double the tonnage and already lost half thier force... With a sigh of relief, He heard Nelson over the radio asking where he should enter the fight with his new ThunderHawk.
Little John continued to fire upon the Warhawk trying to inflict some noticeable damage and was moderately successfull. The Dragonfly raced past him to close distance with Nelson's Thunderhawk. It quickly became apparent that these clan mechs were going to shred up the inner sphere Thunderhawks and spit them out.
Little John changed targets and focused on the back of the Dragonfly and was able to weaken it enough for Nelson to finish it off. They both mentally turned to face the barely scratched warhawk in their torn up mechs as the game finished.
A marginal victory was granted to the Inner sphere mechs because the train failed to make it accross the map.
