Ya had to push it into the realm of silly. You could have gone with a laser vomit Bounty Hunter (maybe even with an LFE) and laser vomit Timberwolf for a much more reasonable assertion of "comparable" but you went with two mechs that aren't even in the same realm. But by all means if you think hit boxes, agility, speed and one being forced to gimp itself with a std some how is of import to your conclusion that a Bounty Hunters quirks give it the same level of durability as a MadIIc, then you should couch all that in your original assertion in terms of that durability comparison, and not get all bent when your reader doesn't also take those missing assertions and manner of characterization (however absurd) into account.

Edit:
To put it another way:
You know I am so tired of arguing with people who keep moving the f***ing goal posts.


Hell, even a Timber Wolf is gonna outclass the Bounty Hunter in laser vomit firepower.

It requires some pretty serious quirks on the part of an IS mech to come equal with Clan laser vomit, and the Bounty Hunter just doesn't have them.

Agreed. I was trying to illustrate bias, but at least a reasonable level of bias that I think would have not been met with out right derision. I like both the Timber and the BH. I can at least see that argument for a comparison. The Mad-IIc to BH though? No.

We need a clan equiv of the roughneck - my votes for "The problem solver"

Its a industrial mech that's utilised in the clan eugenics program. Left arm has a vacuum cleaner, right arm a coat hanger.

Variant number 1 swaps the arms for a water blaster and a mop. This ones used to clean-up the aftermath of circle jerks of equals
