I'll agree with that. The matches do seem to be a bit one-sided on that one...

One sided in favor of the red team...

Remember, kids: The screaming surat mounted cockpit item doesn't have to go in your troll build, but it makes it that much more insulting when you get a kill with your nine flamer Hunchback.

Limerick time!?

Keep it clean...

There once was a man from Nantucket...

[MagResPolarBear]

I knew a young girl from Berlin
Who was truly amazingly thin
The mistake that she made
Was to drink lemonade
As she slipped through the straw and fell in

[blackcatf]

There was an old man with a beard
Who said, 'It is just as I feared,
Two owls and a hen
A lark and a wren
Have all built their nests in my beard!

There once was a man from Nantucket,
Couldn't pilot a 'Mech worth a ducat!
He peaked just a bit,
Was shot in the 'pit;
His remains were sent home in a bucket...

Your turn:
This brash light-'Mech pilot from Texas...

[blackcatf]

wait...

I'm supposed to keep this clean, right?

This brash light-'Mech pilot from Texas
Who bobbed and weaved through the fracas
His 'mech was all blue
Not sure what he'll do
But he'll likely turn the thing into a circus

...that's not the first word I thought of to end the 5th line...

[MagResPolarBear]

Interesting. I was thinking about this one yesterday, and I actually didn't come up with either of those rhymes for Texas. Guess I need more practice.

This brash light-'Mech pilot from Texas
Had a Locust that ran fourteen hexes.
But his run was curtailed
When his pilot roll failed
And he banged his left leg on a Lexus.

Next: A plucky young pilot from Terra...

A plucky young pilot from Terra
Who dreamed to own a Chimera
His work kept him a slave
Only for Lyrans to misbehave
Then was given one by Theodore Kurita.

[Niko9]

What? No others? Was my lore specificity too much to handle? Yeahhhhh. That's right.

I'll give you a goof style Limerick to make it easy.

Dollar. Dollar. Dollar. Dollar. Dollar.
Dollar. Dollar. Dollar. Dollar. Dollar.
Dollar. Dollar. Dollar.
Dollar. Dollar. Dollar.
Dollar. Dollar. Dollar. Dollar. Dollar.

You are aware that the metre in a limerick should be anapest, right?

Also, it's much easier to keep the game going if you challenge people by giving them a first line to work off. How about this:
The warrior tribes of Stran' Mechty...

[Tiberius Reynolds]

Champion, Hero, Prime or more;
Rifled, Smooth or Optic will never bore;
Sending damage down the lane,
Legging Ravens with disdain,
As Cheetahs and Oxides cause posterior pain.

Little Jenner how you soar,
Your pew pew pew I abhor,
at my armor you peck peck peck,
I can't find you, what the heck?
Now I have you in my sights,
Better read you your last rites...

[blackcatf]

This no-name MechWarrior from Nowhere
Grew faint when there was heat in the air.
When the Clanners arrived
She somehow survived,
But now she's some Trueborn's au pair.

[MagResPolarBear]

I really do love my King Crab
Tell me the mission, I'll give it a stab!
With AC/5's soley,
The Dakka's unholy,
But the colourscheme is a bit drab...

[MagResPolarBear]

Another strange merc-corp from Outreach
Has arrived with a lesson to teach
Be nice to the PUGs
They can't help being mugs
Just keep them away from the bleach...

[Metalcell]

Join the 201st Strykers cuz we got jelly!

[MagResPolarBear]

OK, we need as many posts as we can get so I never have to look at gif again when I log in to check this thread...

There once was an Atlas from Tharkad
Whose pilot was only half bad
He'd call his men to the front
And they'd take on the brunt
And he'd show off his medals to Dad

[LoPanShui]

Also in response to the Texan Light limmericks:

A 201st Stryker who's British
Has been known to be rather skittish
He'll crest a ridge
Scuff his armor a smidge
Then cower, shouting, "This match is shitish!"
