My current campaign has reached a point where some baddies need to knock out a rig. I am looking for sensible suggestions on a good force mix to use.
The baddies have intelligence on the target. They know it is a Sleeper Longnose towing a Van semi-trailer.
They know the cab has about 50 points of armour on a side (no metal). It is armed with a twin VMG in a turret. It has plasticores.
They know the van has 100 points of armour per location (no metal). It has a single VMG rear cupola (high) with smartlinks to twin VMG sponsons rear left, rear right and rear. It also has a single VMG front cupola (low) smart linked to twin VMG sponsons front left and front right. They know it has oil droppers and paint sprayers rear corner and rear.
They know that with this configuration as many as 8-10 VMGs can bear into either side, 8 to the front (just off the centre line) but only 5 into the rear (just off the centre line). The last attack was a stern chase that eliminated a tail-end charlie escort and almost succeded in stopping the rig.
They think it is under-crewed, it may be carrying some damage from a former encounter and doesn't it no longer has a dedicated escort.
The motivation is a contract hit with some idealogical hatred on the side. The contract says to delay the rig so that it misses a deadline. The idealogical side says not to worry about letting them die. The attackers are not fanatics and so no suicide attacks (20% fatalities would be acceptable but everyone should have an equal chance of surviving).
The attack will occur on a two-lane highway with a 1 lane median strip (of shared roadway) through an abandoned built up area. The road is not debris strewn, but it detriorates badly immediately off the roadway (i.e. 5" total of clean roadway then off-road and debris).
The budget for vehicles is $120,000. As many crew as are needed (all 30 point characters). CW2.5 rules apply.
The attack should be fun, but full-on. There should be an expectation that unless the players do well, the attackers will succeed (in the delay aspect if nothing else).
I am looking for ideas for a plan of attack and equipment and vehicles to achieve prosecute that attack.
