So for my first mech: The Locust!
Match 1. LCT 1V(P)
River City - Day (Conquest)
Started well. There were 4 lights sticking together capping and moving. We took little damage until a Kintaro loomed with 5 streak SRMs. We ran. I hit a wall. I died.
Damage Done:20
Match 2. LCT 3M
Tourmaline (Assault)
Also started well (I like the speed). Found the enemy, ALL OF THEM. Ran to their base. Got in a brawl then a Battlemaster turned up. Tried to fight while we capped. Overheated, badly. Blew myself up through heat.
Damage: 46
Match 3. LCT 3S
River City - Night (Assault)
Went together and headed for their base. Drew them in and backed off until our Company caught up. In the melee we did quite well but dual PPCs put me to rest. I miss BAP!
Damage: 93
Mech 2: Shadowhawk
Match 1. SHD 2H(P)
Crimson Strait (Assault)
Our 4 man rushed to the theta area and began the attack against a couple of Jenners before we engaged the rest of their Company. I thought about getting drawn into the brawl, then took the high ground and rained ac5 and lrm 5 onto the enemy. We won the skirmish them pushed to their base to finish them off. Victory! AND I lived!
Damage: 178
Match 2. SHD 2D2
Alpine Peaks (Conquest)
I think I'm in love! The Shadowhawk LOVES this territory and I made good use of the varied loadout. Lots of direct and indirect damage here and the jump jets really make maneuvers easy. FIRST KILL!
Damage: 352, 1 Kill!
Match 3. SHD 5M
River City - Night (Assault)
I'm getting the hang of these but the 5M really doesn't come with enough ammo. Still 2 Kills!
Damage: 252, 2 Kills
Mech 3: Thunderbolt
Match 1. TDR 5S(P)
Terra Therma (Assault)
This mech does NOT like the heat...
Damage:156
Match 2. TDR 9SE
Alpine Peaks
Still slow but the jump jets made a difference. Lost overall but B B Wolfe was on the other team so don't mind so much
Damage:185, 1 Kill
Match 3. TDR 5SS
Caustic Valley
We got caught with some good strategy in the caldera. Swift death followed. Not a heat loving mech!
Damage: 161
Final Mech: Battlemaster
Match 1. BLR 1G(P)
Crimson Straits
Nice assault mech but heat is still a major problem for this one.
Damage: 204, 1 Kill
Match 2. BLR 1D
Alpine Peaks (Assault)
More like it. This chasis can take a pounding and deal some out on this map without overheating. There is still room for improvement as the overall damage output is a little on the low side.
Damage:339, 1 Kill
Match 3. BLR 1S - Final Match
Terra Therma (Conquest)
Liking the loadout more on this mech. Did quite well until I (you guessed it) I overheated and let a Cataphract open me up like a tin of tuna. I'm really going to enjoy 'tuning' these up.
Damage: 227, 2 Kills
Final verdict
I'm liking the new (old) mechs, a lot. A lot of potential there and with a few million cbills, I think they'll be around the battlefields for a hundred years more.
