The one with the shortest straw gets to ride the huge junker and get shot at...

No thanks.

Aw, f*ck no. Nothing over 100 tons, ever.

Even reimagined with assault mechs and everyone else having lights, this is a terrible idea.

You've basically taken the idea of capture the flag, and given one player the flag permanently and given him no way to escape being a walking target.

Replace the target with a drop ship. Defend your drop ship, destroy the enemy drop ship.

I like the dropship idea way better! This is like all the hypothetical "Machine gun during napoleonic times!!" threads you read on the Total war forums......Going 100 years into the canon future....

Actually No, IIRC the Omega was built during the Jihad, you don't see it on sarna yet because there waiting to be able to legally use the book that it is in. So in reality you only need to wait for around 18 years lol, maybe 20.

This makes the most sense. Anyone who has played on mission servers in MW4 such as Sunder Junkies will easily appreciate this.


Alternatively, how about a game mode that somehow revolves around defending/attacking a mobile fortress? I'm thinking either the rattler, or those mobile orbital guns from mechcommander.
