I recorded the prices for all clan mechs and their resell(after all pods stripped) prices

mech resell buy range( cheapest- most expensive)

Kitfox 1.77mill 5.84-6.00 mill
adder 2,12 6.72- 7.02
Nova 3.03 8.8 - 9.97
Stormcrow 3.62 11.11- 11.18
Summoner 4.69 13.9- 14.07
Timber 4.79 14.76- 15.17
Direwolf 5.44 17.15 - 17.54
Warhawk 4.99 15.3- 16.15

I have 100 mill cbills so for me I am only interested in the storm, dire and timber!

Removed color codes to make it easier to read

Just to note, only moderators and staff can use colors, and it's probably more likely that only the staff can use colors.

Color codes, well, they won't work for ya and make it hard to read. Still, I'm actually glad to see Dire Wolves actually be expensive. I was afraid that the same antics which happened with the IS mechs would happen here (where the XL ones are dirt cheap instead of super expensive). Though compared to Battletech those prices are super cheap.

With that amount you could only afford two of your targets. I suggest you delay the dire cow/whale unless you have friends to play with. It isn't fun when you're left behind while your team tries to hit the opponents' rear.

Personally i'm considering if i should get the twolf instead of the summoner. I have the feeling i would struggle in the summoner...

Yeah, I would recommend removing the color codes. Stick to different fonts if you want.

I would recommend the T-Wolf simply because the Summoner requires more skill, and pain to get it to work right. It functions like a medium mech, in a heavy slot. Though it can be fun. I have personally been enjoying the SMN-D variant to no end with 2 UAC5s, and 4ERMLs.

15 million Cbills is just the chassis+upgrades+engine cost for many IS builds. That is not expensive at all.

The Summoner, while making IS heavies looks pretty sad, is straight up weaker than the Timber Wolf. Not enough speed nor tonnage (no Endo Steel). You can take the same or more on a Scarecrow or TW respectively.

Ok, so it's not just me. I thought I was going crazy. "Didn't Kon used to sport the Liao tag?..."

Merc Unit.
Still show up as Liao in the games, just Zhizhu Liao.
Zhizhu isn't sure if Faction Units will have the periphery play options as Merc Units so we want to keep our options open.

Lol, a summoner requires no more "skill' than a timberwolf...

it merely has less hard points, more tonnage used on jumps jets that are essentially less effective now and less tonnage/armor.

It doesn't do anything particular better than a Timberwolf to the extent that there is no reason using one.

With that being said, pre-JJ nerf, the Summoner as a delight to jump snipe, but even then, it really lacked strength of the Timberwolf.

So I can make money by buying the cheap Timberwolf?

Cheapest as in without any parts installed, I believe. Just the big XL, and hard-wired stuff.

[SnagaDance]

He's referring to the list where the cheapest Timberwolf to BUY is cheaper than a stripped Timberwolf to SELL. Which would be an endless C-bills machine. Now I think there's just a '1' missing in that list.

[Johnny Reb]

Yeah my list isn't formatted well but it gives you an Idea. So the Adder is the next.
