I'm assuming we'll get 50% of the face value, right?

[Otto Cannon]

But can I sell all my armour and buy lagshield instead?

[Kung Poo]

I have 36473 Armor it says, how much would that be o.O

at 50%, roughly 18 million

[HammerSwarm]

glad to see this confirmed. It has been mentioned before but as always details are "subject to change" I am glad this detail has not.

Justice has been served.

although this is something i am happy about, i am not happy that it will take 5 more clicks, a virgin sacrifice and my first born child to navigate the new ui

How on Earth did you get that much armor? Did you sell your entire stock of mechs? Do you chronically down-armor them?

LOL. I saw 18MM and had to go check mine. I only have 4150 standard and 1000 FF. (Been playing since CB)

Good, considering half the price for selling items like those I've got around 50 mil worth of cbills to sell. xD

[Roburn Bliss]

Hang on:

1 ton of armor = 32 points = 10016 C bills

So I have 3574 spare armor. The purchase cost would be 3574 / 32 = 111.6875 x 10016 = 1,118,662 c bills.

I guess the sell price would be 1,118,662 / 2 = 559.331 c bills

Better than nothing I guess.

lol I'm wondering as well. I thought everyone max out the armor the moment they buy a new mech.

Maybe switching from std to ferro or back?

that's a lot of Terri. (And thus a lot of wasted c bills)

Unless he upgraded every light mech...

If we had repair and reload, that would be enough armor to not have to worry about repair costs for a while.

Just looked at mine and thought of something... STD armour is 10,016 CB per Ton according to the Mechlab, so half price on that is 5,008 CB My 17,416 Tons of STD would be = 87,219,328 CB in exchange, if it works the same as selling weapons. FF armour is 20,088 CB Per Ton, or 10,044 CB Per Ton sold. 967 Ton = 9,712,548 CB. That give me a Whopping 96,931,876 CB payback. As long as it works the same as selling weapons I'm gonna save that for the Clan release

Wrong!!

Whatever the number is you must divide it in the ammoun of armor per ton (32 with standard) and that multiply for 5k in order to get a rough idea.

Notice as example that ammo works in the same way, whenever you buy a ton of a kind of ammo it shows the number of bullet per ton as bought no the total number of ammo (if you have 4000 Mg ammo, and you put a single ton in a mech the numbers moves down by 2000 not just 1)

P.S: for you 17k of standard armor you'll get like 2'7 millions..

Don't worry, kknowing pgi they'll only give you a few creds for each ton of armor. Don't want players not spending MC on them afterall.
