Chapter 59 The Surrender Pt1

Lieutenant Becki and his wing follow Tarith's Rage back into the swamp, looking for mecha that might have been drawn by the battle.

If the Rebels are smart, finding them will be difficult, Tarith's Rage is a huge heat signature and can be seen from quite a distance. The only correct call for a depleted Light Mecha force when they see her is to turn tail and run, hoping that she hasn't seen them yet.

Not that a handful of light mecha couldn't take out a Crusader under normal circumstances, but her close combat style is far from standard, and the water is up to the waist of the Line Mecha in some spots with a muddy bottom. They simply won't have the mobility to outmaneuver Tarith's Rage so they can target her weak points and survive.

[Light Mecha turn north. Satellite feed shows targets in that direction.] Max instructs them as he watches a pair of Rebel Line Mecha moving through a clearing.
