Really don’t seem to be able to get on with the flea….


However having more success cramming as many HSL and HMGs into various other light mechs….so I’ll be there spitting out some close range spite at fat asses…..failing that the ATM Adder may have to come out

Drop in with any light mech you want. The reason its called the flea for all is that it rhymes well.

Just offhand, what's the biggest weapon you can put on a Flea without making it unplayable?

I really want the Flea equivalents of my AC20 Adder...

You can squeeze in four light ppc or two snubs on a flea but its super hot and goes adder speed.

For a single heavy weapon the locust probably has the best layout and quirks.

I have to revise my earlier answer and claim you can fit a MRM40 on a Flea or (ammo-quirked) Locust.

Not that that's much playable.

Huginn with MRM40 is kinda fun.

[Meep Meep]

MRM40 deadside urbie is fun after the mrm buffs. You can fit in some more ammo or some jj if you pop in an xl engine.

Whoosh

It’s amusingly fast and furious out there this morning - feels more like an aerial dogfight than trench warfare.

Starting to seem more LRMs and Streaks on the fat boys though…..

Sadly, got 'bout nine hours before I can get on and Flea For All myself. Work and shite, long shifts today. I shall have to count on all you fine folk to punch up the queue numbers before I can get on and contribute a Saburr or Meth Linux to the cause this evening.

We ran a lance of Urbies, went around the side of the map, and solo capped the Assault base.
We won, but we still lost pilot score

This is why many don't play lights regularly as they can be hard to maintain your psr if you play the objectives and don't farm damage and kills.

Servers should be back within 20 minutes of this post. You wanna join me? We got a lance and a half forming on Everything Battletech

feel like this would have been better with official pgi backing. i did dust off some squirrels and even bought a couple new ones.

also a thanks to the cauldron for making more viable light ballistic options. they turned a couple ac2 plinkers into ac5 monsters with a smattering of ammo quirks and ac5 buffs. match of the day was in a panther 10p where i got 3 kills with my dual ac5s.
