Just to make sure.

That is what the Nukes we send down after are for

Edit: we are getting off track though - these should probably be numbered

Pro-tip: make sure you don't spend the whole match walking into a wall

956. Using power armor to throw AC ammo at the enemy mechs will actually not cause the shells to do damage.

957. Using your Power Armor fists as the firing pin is ill advised, We're still cleaning out private murty's brain bits from his suit.

958: While replacing the hatchet on your Hatchetman with a foam version, and smacking other 'Mechs around may be fun. Vehicle crews, and especially armored infantry, do not enjoy the whiplash and potential organ liquefaction, as a result of being hit by a ton of foam -regardless of how soft- moving at over 50 meters per second.

959. There is no such thing as a "Stone Rhino II." What makes you think they tried to make a second one if Tokasha couldn't make one with working legs, and where did this ridiculous notion of the "second one being able to mount a warship-scale Gauss" come from? Besides, see tip 640.
(...the Behemoth II from MekPak 3 is pretty scary...granted so was the Marauder II since I think that also had a 'Clan Railgun.')

You're fired.

If you're gonna do that, you have to do it RIGHT.



Right down to the credits.

960. There are no hidden factory-built directives in your DI systems for your Battlemech, no matter how much a Tech is trying to convince you.

[990Dreams]

961. Order number 66 is not a real order, and yelling it in the comms won't bring any Clone Troopers to your aid.
961a. Even if it does, they are infantry, and thus will get mauled over.

[StompingOnTanks]

962. Calling for reinforcements does not automatically mean they will come screaming down from the nearest dropship at any instant you desire. Backup teams are people too and they need lunch breaks.

[990Dreams]

962. If the CO says it will happen fast, it probably won't.

[Tustle]

964. Notice to weapons technicians; TCBY is a parlor which sells "The Country's Best Yogurt." It is NOT an acronym for "Trans-Continental Ballistic Yogurt." Stop loading our dessert rations inside Autocannon warheads!

[Sizzles]

965: Although it is common, now, to call a Clan Elemental a "Toad" it is HIGHLY ill advised to do so to their face.

[kingalbertII]

966: whoever replaced the tutotial video "usage of the LB10X" with "LB10XXX" is to report to the quartermaster.
967: if the quartermaster summons you, its better to turn yourselves in than to have him find you

[Darth Futuza]

968. There are to be absolutely no questions about rule # 963 upon pain of death via gauss rifle.

[990Dreams]

963. Who cares if it's out of order, it has to be here.
963 a. Now excuse me while I run from Darth Futuza.

[StompingOnTanks]

964. The only time death by gauss rifle is permitted is when a member of our unit has committed an offense in Class 5 (murder, treason etc). Otherwise, an Atlas with a mech-sized flyswatter and a jetpack for the accused is to be employed.

[990Dreams]

965: That makes the punishment more painful for a lesser offense, which is obviously correct

[Sparks Murphey]

966: Cooling jackets, though powerful, are designed to keep their contents at around 37 degrees celsius. As such, they make terrible beer coolers.
967: Likewise, the heat sink system in your 'Mech is designed to keep your ammo from exploding and your myomer from catching fire. Again, these do not work well as beer coolers.

963 b. Fortunately, this was not phrased as a question. Your secret is safe with me. I will not tell a soul of your near-incompetence. (Bonus points if you know what I just referenced).

[StompingOnTanks]

968. Yes, the Hell's Horses have a horse-shaped totem quad 'Mech, but we doubt it can support the weight of your Black Knight riding it.

[Tustle]

969. Robocraft does not make a good replacement for your current 'mech simulator.

969 b. Yes, even if the physics are simultaneously better yet wonkier. (see: simulations of a machine's center of gravity yet also see spontaneously flipping tanks on collision with other tanks.)

...Tank's found a new old obsession folks, he'll be back blowing giant stompy robot fellows up someday. Blame his secret desire to build giant stompy robots from the ground up and the addition of walker legs to Robocraft.
