I would like to recommend atheist symbol decal , since we got a few ppl here thinking religion exist in battle-tech universe.

Actually, it does. And as nice as the idea is, the devs may pass on the religious icons just because of the sheer number of them in the world at the moment, and who knows how many more in the BT universe (the Catholic church further splits, and Melissa and Hanse got married by 2 priests officiating at the same time because they were each from a different branch of Catholicism, for example). But if they do allow it in your cockpit, then sure, why shouldn't you have the symbol for your faith (or non-faith) in there?

How about an MFD or two? (Multi Functional Display)

It sounds weird but I think that the religious icons would work quite well. I can see quite a few mecharriors having these in their mechs.

- Catholic Saints Medal
- Orthodox Icons
- Star of David
- Pray Bags and Wheels for Budhists/Shinto players
- Bible
- Animalist Totems
- Vodoo Griis

Tom Tom GPS navigator
hula girl
the "hot lips" picture from super trooper
box of tissues or roll of toilet paper for those long lonely deployments
mini dvd player like the ones in mini vans for the kids to watch sponge bob on
"tactical trunk monkey" sticker or something similar
a parody patch of the MLB logo with a mech on it jumping and call it " Major League DFA Jumpers"
or a sticker saying " IT Burns When I PPC"



and a sticky note that says " DON'T PRESS THE BUTTON!" and if you do press the button your mech does something compeletly catastrophic and halarious

Earned medals etc. purchasable in a small box.

Cool postures of weapon names with background lighting (Blue PPC text with sparkly feel to it for example)

A bobblehead version of the shoulder missile packs.

House/clan badges.

A poster for Ballistic/Laser/missile Boats from mw4 with a tribute to Lonely Island with the text "I'm on a boat"

A black mech figure with the text "Unseen". (Perhaps having a cover on it)

This is a complete oxymoron, as in religion being a assumption, especially in a SCIFI universe where human isnt the only life form out there.

BTW the story line wasn't added till later, not with the original battletech series from the 80's.

AARRRGGG- Did this thread ever take off? Don't know if it's been mentioned, but with your BUTT sitting a few feet away from a nuclear reactor I would think Iodine pills to prevent radiation poisoning might be useful. Come to think of it ( for those who get thumped on a regular basis-myself included) what about a First-Aid kit with lots of bandages!! Could have Lotion for Laser burns,Calomine for PPC itch, rubbing alcohol for Joystick cramps and maybe an inflatable donut when the 'roids act up after a long stretch in the saddle. But lots of BANDAGES>

I would like to add George Carlin doll as a window add on

..some interesting ideas here; some weird ones too.


Pretty sure just about every possible inexplicable object has been considered, except maybe Sun Tzu's "Art of War," and possibly alternative books on philosophy or stuff that might be appropriate.

..never read "Art of War" myself, but I've known a few fantics who made me quite sure I didn't want to read it. Something weird about people devoutly quoting and fervently referencing a book like that when the closest thing to war they've ever seen was on the news. Certainly, they wouldn't know what to do if they were put in a leadership position, except possibly to issue orders to kill everything. Yes, one at least was like that.

..actually, there was only one.


I like the idea of a knife, gun, maybe a compass, (or an iPhone with a compass ), , just so you don't appear to rely entirely on your Mech. Various other personal weapon options might be cool: A Rapier, broadsword, useful handaxe, etc..

Everything should be in it's place though. If a knife, then it should have a sheath attached appropriatly to the 'dash?' or a sword should be vertical in a corner of the cockpit, (accessible but out of the way), bobble-heads should be somewhere obvious and frivolous stuff should be frivolously placed. Serious stuff should of course be seriously placed; all I'm saying.

A cigar coul be placed in a band attached to the central console for victory celebration purposes, or another might be burning and wedged between a shifter and a **** within easy reach. 'Gritty'.

et al.

ruh oh shaggy, truth coming out.

My own personal opinion but I really don't think religion and scifi really mix, since they kinda contradict each other,.. well one does..

I wouldn't mind buying a George Carlin bobby head for my mech warrior =d
