How to exploit the incoming 30%+ light queue of slow walking trash cans? Something with a high pinpoint alpha and decent range to outrange the ac10/20's should do the trick?

Perhaps the good old 2x Gauss/PPC? I reckon dual gauss will be the best choice for dumpstering the dumpster cans. :D


Beware:

I plan to hunt urbies in an urbie, perhaps in a lolcust. Hunting urbies in trebs is for meta tryhards.

I think the best way to do this is to chase urbies in an STD200 Atlas. 100 ton urbie asserting its dominance!


And it's not about trying to ruin people's fun; you're going to have a mix of people on your team and their team in urbies. What are you going to do, not shoot them because they're in urbies?

I would suggest shooting at the assaults ripping your team to shreds while you chase a trashcan.

That's exactly what they want you to do. March up to them thinking they're a free frag.. then an AC10 round in your face aka cockpit.

There are few moments more delicious than when the "hunter" discovers he has become the hunted.

So please, toss on your coveralls, Farmer John, cuz this Urbanmech? Is gonna tear you up, son.

For you? I'm not even gonna use lube.

Big difference between dealing with what you encounter, and going out of your way to build and hunt for something you consider "easy prey".

People use ERLL+MG on Locusts? Hwat.

Also, I'd be totally game for that.

130 kph and a ML vs. 32 kph and an AC/10. Who will win!? Sign up now!
