Brilliant idea.

Really like the idea with the PinUp-Calendar. Opens up so many possibilities...

How about something that identifies what mech you're piloting? I'm not all that familiar with who manufactures what mechs, but if you're piloting a steiner mech, give us the steiner emblem somewhere in the cockpit.

Or even just the emblem of the nation you fight for?

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


I would put a little Raven totem in my Raven. :rolleyes:

I do like the MP3 player idea, be great running a mech with the likes of Maiden, sabbath, slayer and bolt thrower playing.
And a page 3 pin up (UK gamer will know what i mean by that........lol).
Beer/cola can in holder, and as mentioned elsewhere, a roll of gaffer/duct tape for those emergency repairs.

You know what I bet hasn't been thought of by anybody yet? A hula girl.

Or fuzzy dice.

Clearly an original idea.

Seriously though? Battletech miniatures, OR DICE! Go for that 4th wall.

I've managed 3 pages into the thread and nobody's mentioned dog tags? Or clan tags? Anything like that?

A tiny elemental minature or such would be wicked too.

Dog tags, how could I have forgotten this!

Also: For those of us in a Merc Corp, how about a spot for our Merc's emblem?

Some kind of photos, either family or pin-up (especially a blonde, my wife would die if I could put a blonde pinup in my cockpit)
Fuzzy Dice
Little hanging disco ball
Air freshener
Pistol & Holster
An "I Win" button
Love the Hula GIrl idea
And bobblheads would be awesome. The heads of the houses, popular mechs, mechs that can't be in the game for legal reasons, etc.

To put in another vote:

Customized pics are a ++, maybe even multiple slots per mech (though I wonder how many of your pervs are just going to put p-o-r-n up)

There's been alot of mention of an MP3 player, but if it were me I'd have a subwoofer and a set of speakers all around my cockpit to live the music, so make it an MP3 player with a speaker setup imo.

Scratch marks for downed mechs makes no sense as eventually ppl will have 1000s of kills and you just don't have the available space for that many dashes, but I would think a cockpit monitor somewhere that keeps track digitally would be manageable.

Another +1 for some kind of sidearm or melee weapon (katanas/daggers for the DC guys, axes for those vikings etc.)

Edit: haha, even p 0 r n is filtered out
