Major Pierce Gregg had a problem. Nine of them, to be precise. Nine enemy `Mechs still standing after the loss of nearly thirty of his Battalion. He’d been told to expect stiff opposition: as far as the Major was aware, the Clans had never been beaten. Even forewarned, the fury of their counterattack had shaken the young officer to his core. He’d hung back of course, a prudent choice to better organize and command his troops. It hadn’t helped.
He hadn’t been sure what to expect. Gregg had participated in several planetary assaults, and had trained for scenarios just like this—but his tactics weren’t working. The enemy was out for blood and didn’t seem to care that they were outnumbered and, he assumed, outgunned. They fought like men possessed, and Gregg was forced to admit at some level he was more terrified than he’d ever been in his life. He stared at the battle map that consumed his secondary monitor, occasionally glancing upward to fire his PPC downfield. He’d have to join the fight in earnest, he decided. He was doing his men no service anymore. There was nothing he could order that they weren’t already doing. His eyes rose as he stared at the still-distant machines and the men inside, a cold certainty growing in his chest. He wasn’t fighting men.
He was fighting monsters.
