My inner underdog is considering the AS7-D and AS7-K.

Now this is a sale worth its' name! Might have to get another HBK, been enjoying my good old 4SP since the SRM fix.

Did you see how much the discount actually is? There sre some ridiculous MC discounts on the hunchies and jenners in particular.

Edit: Disregard this, it actually is 50%.

I'm wondering if that was a blip. I'm looking now and they look like 50% off.

For instance, JR7-F is 580, normally 1160.

Just figured that out, the normal MC prices on Smurfy are wrong, they are much higher than they should be.

I'm still seeing the same prices, so I may as well add that the listed regular cbill price for an atlas K is 43.6 million.

They finally suckered me into buying the Atlas. I wish the Jagers were on sale instead of the Catapults.

You youngsters with your fancy Jagermechs, Cataphracts and Victors. Back in my day we didn't have any of those, we had 8 different chasssis, standard heat sinks, standard guidance, standard internals, standard armor and only two lances on a team, and no ECM, and we loved every second of it.

Edit: post #1001, woohoo!

Are you sure the strike-out line isn't tricking you into seeing a 1 as a 4?

I'm not much of an assault pilot, but I'm gonna buy a DDC for sure. I just don't know which of the other variants I should get to go with it, D, RS or K ? I don't particularly like the K with only 1 Missile hardpoint. Any opinions ?

I plan on selling all but the DDC. So I bought the K, since it comes with a discounted XL engine, cutting the net-loss. I am ambivalent about the other 2.

I did just notice the K can run dual AMS. I guess that's a plus. You could sit back and spam PPC in it all day and not worry about LRMS as much.

Ive got the DDC, D, and BH
If I hadn't got the BH, I probably would have gone for the K (Dual AMS and a spare XL300)

Jody,
For C-Bill Atlases, I recommend the D and RS in addition to the D-DC, although all of the Atlases can be made to work. I kind of liked the K (built it pretty much as you suggested).

Well, I was going to upgrade my Ember engine... but I need two more hunchies to complete the 3-variant set. CB sale time here I come! Now if only I had stocked up on mech bays during that sale... :)

Edit: On the Atlas question, I have the D-DC, D & RS; the RS performs as well as the D-DC in terms of XP earned; all of mine have >1 W:L and KDR (both since going live and since stat wipe). About the only chassis I can say that about.

Fun thought - currently the AS7-K is only ~1.9m more than the cost of it's engine!

Fixed thanks to Torgun >.<
