Heavy Gear Rulebook, 2nd Edition (Dream Pod 9)

"Fall back! Fall back!" Hastily, you have taken command. Your squadron pulls back behind a rocky outcropping and regroups. Tracers surround your temporary shelter like angry fire hornets -- you all know you can't stay there forever.

You crouch low and burst out of the rock's shadow, weaving and ducking on powered wheels like an oversized, armored skater. A hail of shells explode around your Gear, but you're too good a pilot to be hit. Unleashing the full power of your V-engine, you head back into the firefight, emptying your shoulder-mounted 71 mm rocket pod on an enemy heavy tank.

And they told you this was just a routine patrol...
