Quick filler post up to introduce our Sergeant Major of the infantry, and Lieutenant of the VTOLs.
Still need a name for them.
Poor Bloody Flying-Cab Drivers?

I get the feeling Chris is going to keep his lasers point at you guys and the PPC at the enemy, so that all bases are covered.

Wonders how many kilos of C-32 Nikoli can stash in all the non TBQ battlemechs cockpits without anyone noticing. :)

GW... 3,000 C-bills for a TAG? I wouldn't sell one for less than 30,000... and that's if it was HOT a.k.a. stolen and you had to get rid of the damned thing. I'm guessing that it'd work with designating a target area, but there's no rules for that, as far as I know... GM's call. And I'd like to say IMO it would work...

Description
Target Acquisition Gear is an advanced targeting device for use by artillery spotters. The TAG unit works by firing an infrared laser beam to designate the target and transmits that data via a tight-beam laser communication system to the guidance systems of friendly "smart" bombs and missiles. The system was first introduced by the Terran Hegemony in 2600, but it became Lostech during the Succession Wars until it was recovered by the Federated Suns in 3033.[1] TAG is compatible with systems such as Arrow IV Homing Missiles or Semi-Guided LRM munitions.

EDIT: Reminder for Rogue... Homing Missiles RULE!!

I liked my idea of them being called 'the Lords of the Flies' But 'The Flying Monkey's is a WAY better name. This has my vote.

I did not get to finish that bio, it was going to explain that Chris and Bubba ran into some hard times. One of the times during that, they had to sell some equipment they had salvaged (it was a part of their contract payment), dirt cheap. They had even gone to smuggling items, legal, and illegal to many buyers. It was when they finally got a good run of luck that they had gotten more decent, honest work.

I'm confused, I think I'm missing something here (Could be because I haven't reread the bio, who knows? [Thom and GW probably know]) but how does going from down on your luck to honest work get you advanced electronics for less than a tenth of their minimum market value?

I think it was more that he was so down on his luck that he was considering selling the advanced electronics for less than a tenth their normal minimum market value, just so that he could afford to buy a can of beans to eat.
