Dear PGI(Russ Bullock) and every Mechwarriors!
It is sure you have realized the differences between the CLAN Autocannons and its IS counterpart.
I think mainly their range. The IS' ACs(simple, ultra, LBX) have 30-50% more range than their CLAN counterparts. How can it be possible? It is basic the CLAN weapons are better in any spot. For example, the sarna do also claims the battlefield specs of LB20-X are identical between the IS and the CLAN versions, the only difference being in the size and weight. It is basic! In contrast, you did make the IS weapons better, have greater range, all the ballistic weapons have greater range.
And the ACs, Ultra-ACs? How can it be possible the CLAN AC20 should shoot 4 times to do 20dmg, the IS one has 1shoot/20dmg? At the same range??? If the Clan AC20 damages 20 with 4shoots, it should have an AC5's range!!! Even if we speak about what the sarna also claims, there are a lots of AC types in the same class, some have bigger cal and lower projectile speed with shorter range: some have smaller cal with higher projectile speed with longer range, BUT all the weapons in the same class has the same damage. In contrast, the Clan weapons shoot 4 times to damage the same value as the IS ones do it AT LONGER RANGE in 1SHOOT! Equip a twin Clan-AC20, shoot, and does 4times more heat than a twin IS-AC!!! What is this IS tuning ********?!
And do not speak about you graciously let the 55tons max limit in the scouting to the Clans in the name of something and the Stormcrow became available. But! Why does not the Stormcrow have two ballistic hardpoints? The IS mechs have lots of variety of the hardpoints in the case of symmetric and assymmetric loadout. Why can't I do it under the Clan side? Why can't I construct a twin and symmetric ballistic mech in scouting? Why is not there ordinary mechs on the Clans side?
Why is not there a 100tons omni with FF armor, head energy hardpoint and all the variety? Why the IS has 50-100% more ordinary mech in all the variety of hardpoints/construction? Why do not have the capability to equip FF, endo-steel, DoubleHS on the Clan mech when you draw 1 Clan-mech after 3 or more IS mechs?
In addition, when you do an IS tuning, you do it in the name of balance! You can explain it everytime why you tune the IS!
Maybe I am wrong, but was not the Clans that began an invasion against the IS?!!! Not the Clans have a 250years of advantage in the technology? And we did not speak about the advancments during this time! The IS did destroy the StarLeague technology! The Clans have it all the time and advanced it!
What kind of balance you speak about??? Accept it, the Clans have the advantage and do not obstruct the pilots!
Just see the Solaris! The Annihilator leads the leaderboard! The ANH has all the modern equipments and what did you let on the CLAN side??? Direwolf? An obsolate crap Direwolf with Standard armor??? Oh, sorry, is not there an ordinary 100tons Clan mech in the class? Really? Who is the responsible for it? And why are there 14 IS and 13 Clan mechs in the Solaris? And why can't I use my MAD-IIC-D from Division 2 in the Division 1? It is in the same weight-class compared to a MAD-IIC-SC which is available in the D1. And it has energy hardpoint in the head, while the Scorch does not have it. The pilot steps forward to the D1 for better mechs, and gets it on the IS side, but does not on the Clan side. All of you obstruct both the Clan side and the clanner pilots! It is disgusting!
Umpteen, I am looking forward with interest if the Blood Asp would have FF armor and endo-steel or not. It does not have ballistic+energy capable omnipod, only has omnipods with energy or ballistic Hardpoints separately.
We can speak about the Urbanmech's armor. 360points for a 30tons mech, really? And of course it has FF! A 55tons Stormcrow ha 360points!!!
And we can speak about the differences between the Marauders. Just look at the structures points. The IS MAD has 48pts on the SideTorso, the MQD IIC has only 35! Despite of the +10tons???!!! And it is just one mech, one component!!!
Where are you weakening the Clans to? How long will you do it???!!! What is the aim???!!! Where is the aim???!!!
It is disguting that and how you tune the IS!
You are disgusting!!!
