Lets just say, that clans were defeated on border with FRR.
At least most of the time

We on the Clan team were willfully handicapping ourselves via tonnage & chassis type, in order to be most sure that there was no unfairness toward the Inner Sphere team (most of whom were using Tech 1 'mechs). As a result, we lost considerably more than we won. It made for some very fun matches, if you ask me, and the opposing team seemed to think so, too. I still prefer Tech 1 matches, because they are better balanced, in general, but I really enjoyed piloting my Thor Prime last night. (Grumpy pile of junk that it is!)

[Sergey Kosinskiy]

Yeah the one that we lose was most fun too. I mean that time when i stuck on new map. All this round and round. And Jumping. EPIC!

No sarcasm.

[Carl Avery]

Yeah, I got permastuck on that map, too, yesterday, in the public queue. My Raven 4X was floating for about thirty seconds until a Dire Wolf put me out of my misery.

We got some two-versus-two action going on tonight, and we all had fun. I'm simultaneously disappointed that more people aren't doing stock, and happy that we got some good games in.

[General Taskeen]

In process of updating Stock Mech lists (spreadsheet is updated).

Some of you I'm sure know which of the new Stock stuff can be used.

Star League Era

* BLR-1GHE "HellBringer" BattleMaster

Third & Fourth Succession Wars

* CN9-AH Centurion
* GRF-1E "Sparky" Griffin
* VND-1R Vindicator
* VND-1X Vindicator
* VND-1AA Vindicator
* VND-1SIB "St. Ives Blue" Vindicator
* VND-1SIC Vindicator
* VND-1R "Vong" Vindicator

Clan Invasion Era

* VND-3L Vindicator
* AS7-S Atlas
* Mad Dog Prime
* Mad Dog Alt. Config A
* Mad Dog Alt. Config B


I have not added the following to the list, but I know what their prime variants are:

Lights
* PNT-9R Panther
* Koshi Prime

Mediums
* ENF-4R Enforcer
* Fenris Prime

Heavies
* GHR-5H Grasshopper
* Loki Prime

Assaults
* ZEU-6S Zeus
* KGC-000 King Crab
* Man 'o War Prime

[General Taskeen]

Its come to my attention that the Stock Mad Cat Alt. Config D is no longer buildable due to changes from a recent patch. This is unfortunate for hardcore Clan stock users due to less variety, and I will have to remove it from the list.

For those that recall, a Mad Cat Alt. Config D is similar to an Alt. Config S, but it does not have jump jets and uses 4xSSRM-6 instead of 4xSRM-6. Thus if one attempts to move around pods to equip side torso missile S pods, it also comes with the JJ's, which can not be removed.

[Galen Shannow]

Looking forward to trying this out tonight!

[General Taskeen]

schedule is up

November 5th - Clan Invasion Era (Tech 1 & Tech 2)
November 12th - Third/Fourth Succession Wars Era (Tech 1)
November 19th - Clan Invasion Era (Tech 1 & Tech 2)
November 26th - Star League Era (Tech 1/Rare Tech 2's)

[Tarogato]

Apologizes for my absence, I'm usually very busy myself. I have this setup so people in the stock community can congregate and setup games as they wish. Usually the "Clan Invasion Era" is the most popular for Wednesdays due to the huge plethora of stock mechs available.

Numbers in the stock community fluctuate, it was popular many months ago, but I suspect many players quit playing altogether - the ones holding out for a Stock Mode in order to show off their skills and earn money. Regrettably no Stock support has arrived from the Devs, which makes things a bit difficult. Other players gravitate towards weekend events or trying to grind out their new Mechs with each release.

I will continue to update the stock mech lists as time goes on though, so people can see what Mechs can be used when starting these games. I am also writing stock campaigns for MegaMek in my spare time.

[Tarogato]

I'll make an effort to check into the TS server for every stock mech event, so you can at least count on one! I encourage people to try it out, it's fun. =]

[Mohawk Howell]

It doesn't help when I work during the week, I alert a lot of pkeple to games starting. One thing I try to do is play pugs and tell everyone about stockmech events don't know how many people actually show up but it makes me feel good.

[Sergey Kosinskiy]

Well Star league never happened.

[Escaflowne Z]

Good morning, folks. I saw the Facebook link from the MW:O feed, and I have today off from crazy retail holiday work. What time of day is best to get a group going generally? 6-9 Eastern time?

I also wanted a bit of clarification about the setups.

No modules at all unless a command console is equipped? I'm thinking of UAVs, Target Info Gathering, AMS upgrades, PPC cooldowns, etc, not arty/air.

Today's schedule says rare tech 2, and I am wondering what I would need to change around.

Would a Yen lo Wang with Endo, Ferro, and CASE be good?
Also, what about my Awesome 8Q with Endo, DHS, , BAP,and AMS?
Are XLs a no no? My Jenner would weep manly tears.

This is Master list for mechs.

Tech 2 means stock mech on Tech 2 level. Soo no 8Q with endo, but you can grab stock 9M with double, XL, and ERPPC.

I have seen a sudden onslaught of Facebook stock event notifications. Shame they didn't start earlier this year.

Haha, no doubt! Like when we had a ton of people interested...oh well, maybe they got the message and we'll see some sort of stock deal in the private lobbies.

PGI, if you're listening: "Stock Match" button - let it revert a Mech to stock upon launch and revert it back if the "stock match" is unchecked or the player leaves the lobby. MAKING THIS AVAILABLE ONLY WHEN TWO TEAM COMMANDERS HAVE PREMIUM IS OKAY (we took a poll amongst ourselves at one point ).
