1: Atlases are a drop in the bucket.
2: Light is a Zeus, right? Or a Hauptmann? Those are only 95 tons.

I was going to make a sarcastic comment, but then I saw that this wasn't a serious thread to begin with...

Step on it with an Atlas and see if money comes out :D

Heck, some Lyrans use Gold leaf on their Atlas' paint jobs...

As a light mech pilot that prefers House Steiner over all other great houses... I hate this meme.

House Stiener Tactics...We need a escort mission of a high value target at high speeds. Assignment: Atlas. We need recon intel 20 km over that ridge, through the valley, and under dense forest coverage....Assignment: Atlas. We need ariel recon...Assignment: Atlas, with an Aerospace fighter mounted to its back.

And if you can gold plate it, well make you a general!

So, strapping a thermonuclear warhead to the head of your Atlas and then head-butting the enemy into oblivion is not considered a suitable scouting tactic? :P

Absolutely, the last few seconds of telemetery data before impact should prove useful. This is a good idea. I will see what tonnage I can free up to make this happen. ;)

We Lyrans swear allegiance with the Steiners, money is not a problem.

Need more Alases? NO PROBLEM!

As much as we like to joke around we know that when the game releases we will be forming units of mixed tonnages. Just makes sense to bring as many tools to the fight as the other guy. We know that an Atlas makes for a big target and a poor scout hunter. We know that a Raven needs to be taken out of the enemies toolbox asap. We know that four Atlas' standing back-to-back in the open is inviting disaster. We know all this and yet we joke about it because...

Correct, sir. If it's not atleast 40 tons, It's not worth bringing to the fight. Anything less is just over-sized battle armor.


It's like bringing a can opener to a grenade fight....
