Yamantau
9/9 Haechi vs. 4/12 Doc
I was guarding center terr-mark when I seen a fast moving target at my 10'O'Clock. A teammate engaged the Opponent and lit up its Ancile - I instinctively knew it had to be an Haechi.
Target was 360m out and traversing the catwalk rapidly. I switched from Molots to Orkans, for CQB.
I popped out, ran up the ramp to probe the defenses of my Opponent - fired a quick burst and the Ancile dropped by about 30%. I watched for the regeneration, to see its speed. Not too fast.
I popped out to unload a full salvo and the damn thing zipped right past me. I was expecting that so, I didn't fire yet. It started firing Tarans×3 and I backed into the barriers for cover. I moved weapons to just outside the barriers and counted - 5,4,3,2,1 - Fire!
It dashed right into the rockets and the Ancile depleted and started doing damage to its armour.
The pilot backed away and my Orkans were dry. I switched to Molots and continued the fight. At first the damage was minimal but when spooled up, it tore the Haechi apart.
RECOMMENDATIONS: The Ancile is not very strong and its armour slightly greater than Doc's. Rockets can take down the Ancile rapidly but the target can evade, "dash," to retreat quickly. So, mid to long range weaponry preferred.
The Scourge and Zeus can and will bypass the Ancile altogether but the Haechi can close rapidly and deliver a very high payload. Unless you're confident that you can destroy the target, I suggest to out range this mecha.
*There was a Kumihio (Spelling?) in the conflict as well. However, it was quickly put down by Trebuchet×2 Raijin at about 700m.
