Got it in one.

Can't have that Dixie Warhorn, though. Sadness. Maybe a "YEEEEEHAW!" though.

That or a Burt Reynolds style laugh.

oh,think that could be taken wrong/abused in game, oh well ...

So I put a smaller engine in my K9, 5 ersl and a rotory ac5. OMG what a riot. Just throw it into a turn and follow with the OP 360 turret. Red lights have not been happy lol. They run away. LRM boats just might as well give up. Assaults just die of frustration. Fast mediums, well can't kill them all. The lights, the siren, the muzzle flash! The lack of ammo, the over heating, the jamming :-( fun times...

If you just want em blind, you can always downgrade to a RAC/2 and let your lasers do the real work.

The RAC-5 K9 is awesome. I mastered that build with a quickness because it was an absolute killing machine. Plus the lights and sirens that I just HAD to toggle after a kill, so much fun.

Now, if only we had a truly urban environment to play ambush predator in....

Metropolis map.... coming soon.

I am hoping that it will have some lane ways and overhangs that larger mechs cannot get through creating the options for alley fights as well as arterial road engagements.
May the urban mech thrive in such conditions.

OMG, I so hope that this happens.

mrm60 Urbies!

[Cyrilis]

OK Guys,
do you think we can arrange some Urbie drops on some TS just after the patch? Or does anyone know if someone else has already made a plan?

STD60’s and MRM’s only?

in that case we will use stock ANHs to fill up the missing tonnage...

[Barkem Squirrel]

Well the quirks are out for the 68 and we got durability of a heavy mech, for missiles 10% velocity, Range and 15% cool down. Then for energy we got 10% cool down and 5% range. So what will it be Rockets, MRMs, SRMs, SSRMs or LRMs?

Still the idea of being able to have two ERLL's with two Rocket launcher 20's just strolling up behind some one just gives a grin to my face.

Then there are the two SRM 6's with or without Artemis depending on if you want 3 tons of ammo and 4 JJ's with 3 ERML's.

Or the three MPL's with two SRM 4's.

Still the MRM's do I want an MRM 40 with one ERML's using the 60 standard engine with 3 tons of ammo? Or something a bit faster like with 3 erml's with an MRM 20 with 2 tons of ammo.

Now for the LRMs. LRM 15/ 3tons of ammo with 2 erml's, tag and a 180 xl. you could do lrm 5's with tag and an erll


I guess maybe some AMS for the first few days also or just have one of your buddies run an ams kit fox or nova

[MovinTarget]

Lets get Urbinating!

I'm leaning towards an LPL/ERML combo in the arm with 2xSRM4 in the other arm. Should benefit nicely from the quirks. Just wondering what sacrifices to make for it. I run the LPL/ERML in the 60, and it can pack a nice punch.

[Electroflameageddon]

Just logged into my account and found the 68....

And she is BEAUTIFUL!

It is going to take some serious thought regarding the load out. So much to do.

SRM's and LPL/LL? MRM's and ERML?

Decisions, decision.

[Twilight Fenrir]

Just had my first match with the new Urbie... and it went well! MRM30 and 2 ERMLs

Edited by Twilight Fenrir, 14 November 2017 - 04:18 PM.

[jper4]

nice. i also like the fact there were 3 urbies in that match.

I was tinkering some but haven't brought mine out yet. atm I have a max light engine, 2 MRM 10s w/ 2 tons and skill bonuses worth of ammo, 3ML, though debating 3 ER MLs instead to maintain a middle range fighter instead of having to get closer for the MLs.

thought about a pair of MRM 20s but then the tonnage doesn't work out for anything else since we still need those 10 heat sinks. did try keeping the MRM 30 but i forget why i didn't stick to it. heatsinks maybe?
