646. Atli, Atlases, both are technicaly correct, both are also wrong, it depends upon who you ask but if you want to avoid being killed by your own team try to avoid ether while in combat.

647a. A full lance of Firestarters can be referred to as a pyromaniac lance

647b. for your own safety Mechwarriors piloting Firestarters are not to be referred to as a pyromaniacs, especially if the aforementioned Mechwarrior is in a Mech and you are not, we may decide to prove you right.

648. Posting in this thread IS a right of passage.

its only helpful to the if it happens and there less chance of that then a atlas getting JJ....thinking about that


645. please do not add black market jump jests to the atlas its not built for it and as cool as you think it would be to send a 100 ton atlas flying the amount and size of jumpjets you would need would really cut into your wages and your paying for damages to A. the atlas and B. what ever you land on

Yep, the K-3 had 3 JJs installed. Whoever thought of that should be given a medal, and then be promptly shot in the head for coming up with that idea.

649. "Rules are made to be broken" is a cool squadron motto, however that does not mean your squadron can dispense it's own brand of justice and break the laws of the land.

650. Using your own mech to try and become a vigilante on whichever blasted world you are sent to is not a valid excuse for commandeering your mech and taking it out without authorization.

651. When you hear your commanding officer's voice you can tune him out by imagining him to have the same voice as the teachers in Charlie Brown.

651 b. For your own safety, do not imitate the voice of said teachers when speaking with said commanding officer over comms.

651 c. If your commanding officer actually starts speaking with the voice of the aforementioned teachers, you should render immediate medical assistance, as it could be a sign of heat stroke, concussion, or brain damage.
651 d. If they happen to be joking, medical assistance is still necessary and completely allowed as a form of punishment for being a terrible CO.

652. No matter what the techs tell you, 'Two mechs, one oil can' is NOT a training video.

654: Anything that involves driving a J-27 as a punishment is not worth doing.
655: Chasing new recruits with a fully loaded J-27 stops being funny after the first five minutes.
656: Piloting an Omnimech is a privilege, not a right.
657: Urbanmechs and high speed chases are mutually exclusive concepts.
658: Heavy Flatbed Trucks are not for 'Mech surfing.
659: The CP-10-HQ Cyclops is the unit's mobile HQ, not the most expensive camper ever to grace the Inner Sphere.
659b: It is never to be referred to as a "walking bedstead".
660: Betting against a pilot in Solaris VII matches is acceptable. Betting against a pilot in your own unit is not.

Well, if you'll excuse me gentlemen I have a few calls to make.

661. Though you probably can't hit the base commander in the ass with a board dart and expect to sneak away from it, you're damn sure welcome to try. However Commander Stomping didn't tell you that.

[Tustle]

662. There is no such thing as an Autocannon round that corrects it's own flight path.

662 b. At best, it is lostech and you should stop asking the techs about it.

663. If you've been inquiring about "flight-path correcting" autocannon rounds because you can't competently take on enemy lights: please escort yourself to training again immediately before you do something stupid on the field of battle. Like fire at the leg of your commanding officer's Atlas on accident because the enemy Locust ran behind it. That's right Maxwell, you [gorilla], we're talking about that incident.

664. "Aftermarket parts" do not exist for fusion engines. If this was an already given tip, we're covering it again to get it through your thick, grease-monkey-wannabe skulls.

665. "Long-range" may be in the name, but the launchers for LRM's are still not reliable means of sending physical packages extended distances. In other words we don't care if it's called the Catapult, it's not an actual catapult.

666. [Redacted due to long, drawn-out, blood-curdling screaming from the one trying to leave the tip, Frank. Tip # 666 will need to be filled at a later date and or time. Please, feel free to take this commemorative fruit basket to aerospace pilot Frank's funeral, where we will fondly recall his (vivisection with a worn-down fibula used to string up and draw out his intestines for equally-commemorative necklaces) life and family. After the funeral service there will be a feast in his honor. The main course will be (his succulent liver, boiled to moist tenderness in the juices of his stomach) an authentic Terran roast turkey.]

We did? Wasn't there someone who told him to go toward the crazy people with skull hats for extra points? Because they wanted his bunk? ._.

With a Malk?
Who knows really?

667(?): Do not listen to what the Malkavian says - unless that group of little voices gang up and beat up the one big voice in your head....at which point you should probably see a psychiatrist - it wont fix anything, but it might help.

That poor, deluded Malkavian. Frank's bunk was ruled a war crime and as uninhabitable by every government in the Inner Sphere. As for the Clans, well even the Dark Caste refuses to even speak of it.

668. Tips 662, 662b, and 663 are to be disregarded. Precision ammunition is currently being developed at the NAIS.
668b. No, you may not be a test pilot for the project.
