Just out of curiosity, are there any Cockpit Items in the Loot Bags this time, or is this a situation where things are limited strictly to consumable things only?

• Active Premium Time
  
• MC (various values)
  
• C-Bills (various values)
  
• GXP (various values)

Pattern phranken black?? Huh?

[Solomon Birch]

They meant colour. I was confused too.

The previous loot bag event was more enjoyable with the warhorns and standing items you could get, this one feels kinda rushed and lacking.

[Mechsniper]

LOTS of 1 GSP bags too so far... not inspiring

The Vulcan is the real prize here.

The rest are just ... optional bonuses.

While I appreciate another freebie event, this time I have to say "no". Don't take me wrong, I just didn't got interested; I have to prep myself for RL BattleTech Rally in Poznan, Poland.

[Johann Grey]

Not a bad event, but there is a pair of typos on the redemption page given its two colours not two patterns. Still nice though

These are not the first typos that PGI has ever made.

Just click those "Redeem" buttons ...

That's the thing I don't like in TT - nearly no matter what your tactical skills are, you have to roll the dices.
So yeah, also good luck from me!
Dużo szczęścia!

The secret is to count in your tactics with the expected rolls that you (and your enemy) will have to make. To make sure that you keep your to-hit numbers down, while making your 'Mechs as difficult target for the enemy as you can.

Also, winning or losing the initiative roll is very important.

Many factors. And luck is, because of the dice rolls, one of them. If you need only a '3' and you roll a '2' - bad luck!
Ponged dices excluded !
