Move in and fire on the lead mech with the laser

Shooting: (5 + 1 (optimum Range)) VS  (5 - 2(unawares)) Hit
Defenses (hidden)
You quickly advance out of hiding and fire at the leading Mech. You hit it square on, but other than alerting it to your presence you didn't do much. a few seconds later, Panther's missiles hit the same mech, though you can't tell if they damaged it.

Occam then closes to melee range with it, and winds up between you and the enemy whilst Shield attacks the convoy. An enemy mech fires at Vanguard, and the curses from the radio tell you that something vital was hit

You are now at medium range to the convoy

Shooting: (3 +1 (Range)) VS (1-2 (unawares)-1(target tracker) Hit!

Your missiles fly true and impact the enemy mech scant seconds after Paladin's laser washes over it. You did something for sure, but you can't tell what.

Convoy is at long range

Sprint at the front of the convoy at full speed. Start hitting people in the face with the plasma cutter and see where that takes me.

Run to the road, blocking the path of the caravan.  Shoot while running when in range.

You run out and block the road. Lasers and missiles impact the leading mechdiverting it from the road. Occam closes to melee range and engages the same mech, driving it off the road. The convoy continues Hell for leather and promptly close the range nicely. You fire off your laser at the cargo trucks

Shooting (6 +1 (range)) VS (5)  hit

The laser hits the leading truck and detonates it, quite violently too, as the shrapnel takes out the driver of the second truck, sending it off course. the other vehicles, Cargo trucks and unarmed APCs scatter off the road, clearly trying to get behind you
