Missed the contrract-break cooldown reset announcement so I'm just going for the 12 personal challenge games.

I love the instant queue for IS players this time around. I've been able to play 3 games so far this weekend and hope to do the other 9 today/tomorrow.

We are having the same event but for IS next weekend... so they will get what they want...and i need to ask the unit leader to move to IS.



Also, PGI, please disallow trial mechs in CW. You yourself are always saying CWis for groups and is hardcore and pugs should stay away... so why offer trials for total newcomers?
by disallowing trials you can at least make sure that everyone in a CW match is familiar enough with the game mechanics (because he/she grinded for 4 mechs of his own)



Erm.... Screw you? I my self am more then a skilled enough pilot to pull my own weight in CW, but I often have not enough time or desire to slog through 4 mechs to have a constantly changing meta and fully flesh out my drop deck, I have 1 trial mech in my deck, used to have two, I am neither a burden on the team, nor do I have time to really grind out 4 mechs all at once.

This would stop people who are good enough for the game from playing because of time constrains and an unwillingness to drop 15 bucks on something they can't pick up and hold.

Some of us like the Battle Tech world quite a lot, but unfortunately have very demanding lives and only get to play a lot sometimes or but a few hours a week..

Meh. He just sounds like one of those "PGI should only cater to ME!" guys. Ignore him. -_-

13 CW Matches, 13 Personal Challenge Points, 52 Invasion Points... mission accomplished, CW Challenge completed.

BTW... Clan Mechs are OP. Have to go back to IS now in order to add some ongoing challenge :)

And what sound does a Clan Dagger warhorn make? Kind of a quiet whooshing sound?

Funny, when I ran IS mechs think I was getting about 1000 points (yes 1000) more damage than in my Clan drop decks. I played IS for Tuk and faced a lot of organized teams. I was surprised how much damage I could do. It may be slightly different with Stk nerfs but still three thundefbolts and a blackjack should do pretty well.

Fun Event. I went for the 9 point 2mil cbill reward.

Almost every match I waited less than 5 mins total to drop, made it much more enjoyable.

So if the numbers don't return after the event, I would consider dropping team size from 12 to 8

Got my 12; having fun. Entertaining.

Having fun leading my drop teams to victory. Also having fun dropping with neighboring Wolf units and learning from them, including MercStar.

looks like a skilled pilot in a Over quirked much. It would would be just as nice to chain fire half second LL for no heat or duration in any Clan Much. MEH!

I got my 50 points yesterday and am taking a break from CW today. Perhaps others are in the same boat.

Not sure if they will have a Resistance event. Only 4 Resistance Prime mechs available, and I doubt they sold as many R packs as Clan packs. I could see them doing a Hero event. It fits with recent events. An event rewarding people that spent money.

Only 4 Resistance Prime mechs, compared to 13 Clan Primes available. Maybe Heros and Resistance.
