You might be a lyran if your commander's mech tonnage exceeds his IQ.


even an elementals tonnage still exceeds a lyran commanders IQ


you might be a lyran if you think paying your commander 1,000,000,000 C-Bills would get you out of scouting duties or leading the next big suicidal charge

If you're complaining about the poor air conditioning in your mech cockpit, you might be a Lyran.

If you didn't know medium and heavy mechs existed you might be a Lyran.

If you think Atlas's and Zeus's are the only mechs out there, you might be a lyran

If you have to learn how to wage war from the space french, you might be a lyran.

If you sneak up on your enemy by dropping your Atlas out of a dropship on top of them, you might be a lyran

You might be a Lyran if you only played Mech Warrior for the giant mechs and explosions back in the 90's, and have no clue about Battletech lore.

You might be a Lyran if you keep 18 different variants of Atlas because "you can't be seen in the same one twice"
.... If your Overlord class drop-ship is classified as a "mobile piggy bank"

You might be a Lyran if you use Davion troops as Clannon-fodder.

The OPs initial jokes made no sense in the BT world....

They should be something more like this:

You might be a Lyran if you consider an Awesome a scout mech.


No we only use Atlases for scout mechs

I am an Lyran because i can't think of a way to attach our Infatnry to the Zeus, only the Atlas can carry one Wasp Elemental into battle.


(In TT a mech may carry one ton per 5 Tons :D )

You might be Lyran if your heiress daughter stole the keys to your Atlas for a joyride, racked up 3 DUI's, (which you promptly bribed her way out of) and you later find a sex tape recorded in the databanks with the thermal vision enabled.

You might be a Lyran if you think that scouting is a waste of time. In the meantime, you prefer to add more armor on a Zeus chassis to oversize the "feeble" Atlas.

You might be a Lyran if you lose half a regiment because your too busy debating the merits of the all Atlas scout lance to bother with silly things like strategy.

You might be a Lyran if you fight with your spouse over blocking the driveway with your parked atlas(es).
