Get ready for it: 2xTBR, 2xSCR

I wish instead of continuously raising the weight limits, they would just lower it on both sides for variety sake. I guess maybe this is a lead up to CW3 when scout mode is initiated. I imagine a lot of lights and mediums will be used there.

Regardless, hopefully the extra 5 tons will help with balance. I doubt it though.

Lowered would be better.

Are you kidding? Daishi, Man'o'War, Blackhawk an Hankyu. Aww yeah, so much brawling.

Granted on defense one could drop 2xDaishi an 2xHankyu as a counter to atlas push. You know, I think that'd be a pretty fun match.

More tons means more ammo for my dakka dakka

Reducing both factions drop tonnage would have been better, increase creativity and drop deck selection.

[Gas Guzzler]

I enjoyed my Highlander, Executioner, Hunchback, Mist Lynx drop deck yesterday. That being said, I'm sure they will reduce it in a week or so. Just use that creativity to come up with cool drop decks that weren't available before.

Is it possible for a change to be enbraced by this community?

I'll be sticking with 3xTBR, 1xACH myself. Dropping under the tonnage limit makes me more honorable right?

Possible, but not plausible. In this case they have been raising tonnages since CW began. Now both factions can field 4 heavies, or 3 assaults and a light (granted, no one will be bringing 3 gargoyles and a myst lynx, but you can).

I would be fine with these limits if they were a part of a regular rotation. This month 260, next month is 220, then 245. That would be great. At the rate we're going it will be at 400 by summer.

Pfft.

4x ebj or 3 EBJ 1 hbr.

Last verse same as the first.

I just don't understand. The forums are awash with whines, rage posts, complaints and "fact" based observations that the Clans have been so nerfed as to be unplayable, even for the vastly superior skilled average Clan player. Now, with 5 tons more for the Clan drop deck we are suddenly going to change all that? Those 5 tons will allow those superior player skills to finally shine through once again? Thank heaven for those 5 tons I guess.

Forget tonnage.
get 12 people of variable abilities on comms with one person they will listen too. Start with heaviest mechs first then go to fastest (works better on offense than defense). Win min 75% of matches with aggressive play and current lack of matchmaking.

Lol. I'm waiting for a group to take 48 Hellbringers and post the results. Lol.

Well it's been a total of 15 tons and to be honest I'd rather see both sides back at 240 or even 225 but that's just me.

[Commander A9]

Not sure why it isn't limited to 250...

But right now, this enables me to run 3 Timber Wolves and an Arctic Cheetah. If that helps me counter a drop-deck of 3 assault mechs and a light, so be it.
