It's cute you think you took planets when a planned planet swap was in effect.

I suggest AFFS commanders look up the words "trade" and "swap" in a dictionary. If dictionaries are considered Lostech in FS, and the NAIS has not yet been able to come up with a prototype of one, the Imperial City Library of Luthien will be happy to supply a copy.

Victor Steiner-Davion runs a Victor with AC20, MLs and SRM plus JJs.

That's right, Dracs. Dear Coordinator runs a scrub mech with CT mounted LRM 10, ammo in a side toros cased in with the XL engine and rear facing lasers.

The rear mounted lasers are for destroying dumbfounded Davions left in the wake of a glorious charge led by the Coordinator. Although it is overkill, a single medium laser should be enough for that purpose.

Dear Coordinator is Peerless on the battlefield. Not even a full Galaxy of Daishis can Halt the Advance of Dear Coordinator if He were piloting an Urbanmech, such is his prowess.

Victor Stinker-FedRat needed a mech to be made for him, yet is Weak in comparison to our Dear Coordinator.

Ha ha ha.

I gotta ask for Dear coordinator you mean the bad ass Theodore Kurita or the old guy who can no longer manage his empire worth a damn (sorry thats the Fedrat in me talking). If its Theodore then I can agree with you as he is one of my favorite lore peoples.

Do not confuse honourable Gunji-no-Kanrei Theodore Kurita with Dear Coordinator.

Two rear mounted MLs.

Remember; an XL that loses a side torso is likely to explode, killing the pilot anyway.

Ammo explosion only destroys adjacent sections. Since the XL went the mech is dead anyway and the ammo explosion coring out the left arm and CT still doesn't endanger Dear Cowardly Coordinator in his 'I shoot best while running away in my ERPPC + 1 LRM10' mech. CASE in a side torso in an XL mech the stamp of a nub.

Get to know his history. He got punked by Theodore Kurita about this era; Teddy was worried that his dad was a total nub and would charge the Clanners in his scrubmobile, so when the planet was under attack Teddy K locked ol' Adult Diapers Takashi Kurita (Dear Coordinator) out of his mech.

That's right. Teddy K effectively hid the keys on his old man because he was too senile to drive. That's the current Dear Coordinator.

Admittedly that's still better than poor Liao. They've still got Romano 'Nobody Kills More of My People Than Me' Liao, gleefully gunning down her own folks left and right.

Just for insult to injury though, while Teddy K is awesome and started out driving Alexander Kerenskys old Orion (say what you will the guy rocked an Onion, the Protector to be precise) he went to a ComStar outfitted dual cockpit Battlemaster and by the battle of Luthien....

he's in a stolen Clanner Masakari. The next Dear Coordinator is already in a Clan mech. He knows where the future of his faction is going. Probably already has a Clan Smoke Jaguar tattoo on his lower back.

Ha ha, your Khan Victor Stinker-FedRat pilots a Daishi instead of his own namesake mech, ha ha.

What a baka he is. Clan Never-feared Davion and Clan Poodle have much in common.

The Victor is a great mech. In fact Theodore Kurita piloted one in the 4th Succession War.

Why?

Cuz deep down he was a Victor Steiner-Davion fangirl.

Dear Coordinator is a scrub in a scrub-tier mech and his boy, the great Teddy K, loved him some Victor before he went Clanner.

VSD (Big Vic to his Kurita fans for reasons best not described here) rode a Dire Wolf because Clans TOTES OP and he was the Gary Stu-Lord and stupidly OP LPL boat Daishi was the most Gary Stu mech in the game at the time. Teddy K just went Clanner because House Kurita is pretty much Smoke Jaguar Jr. at this point.

Smoke jag tramp-stamp. You know he's got one.

A Clan 'Mech that has been captured from defeated Clan forces. A concept that you have difficulty grasping apparently, which is understandable since you've never seen a Clan 'Mech from up close.

Considering that Victor Steiner-Davion was born after the conclusion of the 4th Succession War, either you're saying that Theodore Kurita had amazing powers of futurevision, or we need to send some history books to the AFFS along with those dictionaries.

A scrub with rear facing MLs so in proper Kurita fashion he can shoot while running away.

I'd love rear facing medium lasers to discipline soldiers who don't push when a push is called.

PUSH!! HEY YOU! PEWPEW!! YES YOU!! PEW PEW!! PUSH!!!

[MischiefSC]

The fear of getting shot in a fps computer game never ceases to amaze me. More people up front on a push = more targets to split damage between and more damage done to push the enemy back. Every panty waisted jackass who hangs back with mostly full armor may as well just tk his teammates, he is actively working to ensure the enemy wins.

Coordinated push and concentrated fire are a huge factor in why premades beat pugs. So many people who are happy to ensure a loss just so they are the last to die rather than take a risk to help drive a win.

Actually, CASE prevents one critical problem.

If an ammo explosion destroys the CT internal structure, it reduces the 'Mech (and anyone in it) to "gibbed" status. Unrecoverable.

While CASE won't stop an XL from failing, it generally saves the pilots, considering many Kuritan pilots turn OFF emergency eject to fight to the last. In this case, this is exceptionally important as being reduced to bloody flecks of DNA across a 30m radius would be poor for Kuritan leadership.

I thought that was why we had airstrikes and arty.... have I been using them wrong?

[MischiefSC]

Except that XL being blown out of the side torso has the same potential to blow up the reactor as a CT core does.

3 engine crits and you get a fusion reactor boom on an 8+.

If you don't get a boom the mech is recoverable. The most a CASE on a side torso with ammo would do is reduce repair time for recovering the mech - you'd have 3 crits to repair instead of 6. Ammo explosion only goes 1 section. So I guess if your ammo explodes and you survive the potential engine explosion, plus you eject and survive and your side wins the battle and recovers your mech you save 1 LRM 10, the cost/time of 3 engine crits (either way the engine will have crit spaces undestroyed and thus can be repaired without having to be replaced) and repairing whatever arm damage gets done.

8 pts of armor would be more useful, especially on a 60 ton mech with an XL.

Scrub mech design is scrubby. Takashi (Dear Coordinator) probably left off Radar Derp so he could fit that Hill Climb module on and fights all his battles in 3PV 'because it's easier to lock with his LRMs'.

Incorrect on all counts.

An engine can only Stackpole if it takes damage to 4 or more sections at once in a given turn, and then only on a 10+ (for a 'Mech, everything else is a 12+) on 2d6. Since side torsos only have three engine sections in an XL, CASE prevents the engine from going boom, and thus saves the pilot from being incinerated by an ammo explosion that reaches the CT and causes it to go critical faster than the failsafes can stop it.

Tactical Operations, page 77-78.

[MischiefSC]

Tac ops is the sissy version . Original Max Tech rules. 2+ crits in the same turn, 8+ and explodes for damage and range based on engine size.
