I know a lot of merc units are refusing to release the number of people hey have because it's "super sekret skuirrel info", and others are offshoots of several hundred man gaming clans, but will most likely not have all that many people switch over from stuff like LOL or COD. On the other hand, every one of our people counted as active are posting on forums, BSing on teamspeak, or playing with other 'Borg members in other games online, and are good to go for Mechwarrior Online.

Yeah, it's great seeing the TS occupancy fill out. Even still, I think I'm on the verge of losing that zen-like patience for access to MWO. Feeling like a little kid waiting to open my Christmas presents from Santa on Christmas morning... but the frag'n parents just won't come in and let us open them yet!! GRARRR! Fighting the MWO waiting grinch but the alternative games are not cuttin it. 3+ more weeks before I can blast away at the Snakes!?

You try fitting 28 tons of gun onto 65 tons of 'mech (that doesn't include ammo, by the way) and get back to me...

The easy part is fitting them, the hard part is living to get close enough to actually use them, given the Jagger's mediocre speed and paper armor.

Before you mark your hide you should be aware that the translation "Storra Skjaldborg" is rather wrong.
GREAT SKJALDBORG is more correctly translated to "DET MÄKTIGA SKJALDBORG" (more like; the mighty Skjaldborg)

Stora (with one "r") just means big, but in a utterly common wording.

So "Mäktiga Skjaldborg" (Great/Mighty Skjaldborg) or "Kollosala Skjaldborg" (the Colossal/Vast Skjaldborg) is slighly more correct, if not just correct spellet ;)

Or you could use different languages for "mighty":
Welsh: Nerthol
Galician: Poderoso / Catalan: Poderós
Finnish: Mahtava
Armenian: Hzor
Afrikaans: Magtige
Swedish: Mäktiga

I think i rather use my nic (Tooninki) and Skjaldborg. if i find cheap Tattoo shop.
Those prices are "about" prices, ill have to get them some pictures to more accurate price.

I went with Storr instead of Stor because Storr is Old Norse, while Stor is modern Swedish. Since "Skjaldborg" is also Old Norse, I went with the similar language. :(
