It was kind of ironic that Lily had traded in her Hatchetman, which had been outfitted to specialize in the primarily urban scenarios of the arenas, for an Axman 2N, expecting to be thrown primarily into more open battlefields only to be thrown into a city assault on her second outing. Of course, the sample size was tiny enough to make it insignificant, but it was still a slightly funny thing to consider. All in all, however, even in spite of the less than ideal load-out of her 'mech, she still felt quite comfortable as Erich led the lance through the outer barricade.<br/><br/>Long range missiles or not, this was still right up her alley, and she still had her trusty hatchet which was always a great equalizer and then some in any type of urban confrontation. Lily was actually extremely excited by the prospect of finally putting it to good use against the defending Cataphracts, but for now they had to rattle the beehive for a bit to lure them out. Wrecking building wasn't exactly the type of thing that got her going, it had to be done, so she temporarily turned her melee weapon into a wrecking ball of sorts and got to work, only firing her lasers sparingly to keep her machine's heat levels from ever going above twenty percent.<br/><br/>Just to give the defending forced that extra little bit of motivation, and to cause a bit more confusion by spreading the damage, Lily also dumb-fired a full barrage of LRMs in a spread out pattern into some buildings about five hundred meters down the road, dealing a good deal of damage and more importantly creating some very flashy explosions that were bound to catch anyone's attention.
