Yo fellow robot jockeys.


I just wanted to go over the benefits of Artemis and Tag. I've used tag before, not a lot but every now and then, but last night I finally equipped my first LRM's with Artemis on a mech, a Trebuchet with two LRM-15's w/ Artemis and also TAG, since I had read in the command post recently that they stack. I had an interesting duel on Alpine that brought to light their bonuses.

I was up against a Catapult with two LRM-20's and I thought damn, this is going to be bad considering they technically pack a lot more armor than my Treb. With Artemis and TAG both going off on him, and both of us moving the entire time at full speed at a distance of about 600-700 meters, I ended up coring the Cat without losing a section on my Treb, and only 1 arm and one side torso into internals.

It would seem I hit a WHOLE lot more to make up the extra 10 missiles of distance and 15 tons of weight.


I also noticed with both going that I was hitting A LOT of missles on lights going full speed as well.

So kids, use your Arts and TAGS.


Thank you!
