This set of modules written by Kai Tave are intended as an introduction to the LANCER system while still providing an engaging plot and complex mech combat scenarios. So whether you are brand new to the world of LANCER or are a veteran mech pilot, there is something for everyone. In Operation: Solstice Rain you will take on the role of mech pilots tasked with leading a rescue mission on the besieged city of Nov Elysia on Cressidium, a planet that was settled by Union’s anthrochauvinistic Second Committee just before it was overthrown by the coalition that would eventually become the current-day Third Committee. The powers of Cressidium have been locked in a centuries long cold-war that has recently been enflamed by the arrival of Union. We will then move onto part 2, Operation: Winter Scar during which you will undertake a dangerous mission behind enemy lines. We will see how the situation on Cressidium has developed, partly due to the consequences of your actions in Part 1. When the chips are down and Union backup not expected in system anytime soon, its up to your crack team of mech pilots to avoid disaster! "You are a lancer, an exceptional mech pilot among already exceptional peers, and you live in a time where the future hangs as a spinning coin at the apex of its toss – the fall is coming, and how the coin lands is yet to be determined."
