Twenty kills. No, thats fine, its not like support players like Mechbays or anything.

With how often you your kills get stolen in this game (which I typically don't complain about because its a game with teams) I'm going to wager that even veteran players will have difficulty reaching this goal. I don't think I'll be able to reach half of that with LRM, ML, and AC2 support builds.

Let the team damage and team killing fly, to score a last hit, all in the name of a free mech bay.

Reason for no Atlas in the list

It would have been cool, but we wanted Steiner versus the World. This would have made it Steiner Scout Party versus the World.

ROFL... Leave it to these guys, they found a way to NERF House Steiner...

Too Funny, oh well I have a Victor and a case of beer.

Weird.. I completed the challenge and not only got a mech bay, but my owned mechs went from 111 to 112. I just can't figure out what is new.

it's not a hard challenge, but i still miss my atlas

[CycKath]

I really should be mastering 'Mechs, but guess my already mastered Hunchies, Tbowls and BattleMasters will be getting some runs.

[StevieRayVaughan]

Figures, a new player needs the Mech Bay far worse than the vets, or worse, teams of vets who will most likely get their kills at the expense of the poor new players.

Another PGI plan of brilliance in one day...

Completed the Challenge with my Cicada-3C -- 20 kills, 7 deaths.

I did notice the slower ER PPC speed had an affect on some of my hits...

Why I cannot use my MISERY or DRAGON SLAYER? When I can use Phoenix BATTLEMASTER or THUNDERBOLT . . . any idea?

Just a little feedback to the devs, I would be nice to have assists count as partial kills. For example, have the 4 assists count as a kill. To prevent farming of assists you could set an xp threshold so you just can't sit there a poke people with laser from long range to get the assist for challenge purposes.

This would reward people who play more of a support role, like lrms, but who may not necessarily get the kill shot.

Phoenix and Founders are based on the c-bill variants everyone can buy. This might be a foreshadowing that Hero mechs might NOT be available for use in CW battles.

No Atli? That's unpossible!

I like how the Davion Phract3D enters the mix, and all the lolcusts, but Big Fella is anathema.

Ah well, I'm sure I'll figure out some mech to bring...

[Dawnstealer]

Time to load up my LRM trollstalker and bang this thing out.

[NocturnalBeast]

Funny, the Archon will reward me, even if I kill Lyrans for their Cbills!

I knew some day my awesome LRM-Awesome-8R would be useful.

Nice challange PGI - over a weekend pretty much everyone could get 20 kills. Also nice to see the number of clan-mechs reduced, much more entertaining matches tonight.

[MrEdweird]

What... what is a Hunchback 4PC3?

[Clownwarlord]

No atlas on the list makes a very sad clown.

I'm up to 5 already, and I still have 2 and a half days.

[TheRealTommo]

Shame I can't use Atlas...

The "owned" count refers to the number of bays, not the number of 'mechs.

The number of 'mechs you own will be the "owned" number minus the "empty bays" number.
