SALVAGE RUN

A run is 3 missions with one lance. Damage carries between missions — patch up in the Salvage Bay. Clear all three to win. If the lance is wiped (or a beacon falls), the run ends.

Each mech may move once and fire once, in either order. Hostiles commit their plans before you act — everything they will do is already on the board. Undo Turn (Z) rewinds your whole turn, free.

Dashed line + chevron — where a hostile will move.
Red tile + crosshair + number — what it will shoot, for how much.
Corner-ticked tiles — splash. The blast covers these too.
Yellow arrow — a hit will shove you to that tile.
Red diamond + count — reinforcements land there in N turns. Stand on it to jam the drop (1 dmg per turn).
Amber markers — mission objective.

Firing builds heat. At the cap you get a THERMAL WARNING — fire past it and the overflow comes out of your hull. Mechs vent 3 heat per turn. Water dunks heat to zero; fire slams it to max.

Wreckage blocks movement and line of fire.
Cover soaks 1 damage from any hit.
Fire (and green hellfire): 1 dmg entering, staying, or starting there — and heat to max.
Pit: entering ends your move; skip a full turn; can't fire from inside; only adjacent attackers can hit you.
Water: stops your move and next turn you can fire but not move. Resets heat to zero.

Sweep — destroy every hostile.
Cache grab — step on the cache to haul it. The carrier is slowed, can't fire, and every hostile hunts it. Reach the green EXFIL zone. If the carrier dies, the cache drops — re-grab it.
Dust-off — protect the Lift Beacon until the timer runs out. It can't dodge, and hostiles you don't stop will shell it. It is immune to fire, not to guns.
