4, 8 if you include trials.

trials dont count, you dont own them.

[Triggerhippy]

Inc founders
3 Atlas all mastered
3 Jenner all mastered
3 Catapult all mastered
3 Hunchback all mastered
3 Cataphract 2 mastered
1 Commando
1 Dragon

I don't have a full set of modules yet and still could do with buying engines for all of them (I tend to swap the same one in and out of most mechs I'm working on) but other than that, all are drop ready.

[Tickdoff Tank]

25 +1 Founder's. 30+1 Mechbays.

[Zynk]

I have 8 mech's now but I've also bought and sold 7 others. I have mastered the Jenners, Centurions (Y-L-W), Catapults and will have the Hunchbacks mastered today.

Will only be keeping the Founders mech's and selling most of the others with exceptions I will be keeping the Atlas D-DC and still need to buy another Atlas to master those.

Also need to decide which Lt/Med ECM mech to buy and master which will be 3 more mechs and will sell 2 after they are mastered.

[Wrayeth]

Ten. I'd probably have more, but heavies and assaults cost a lot.

AS7-D(f) with Master unlock
AS7-D-DC with Master unlock
AS7-RS with Master unlock
CTF-3D with Master unlock
CTF-4X with Elite unlock
CTF-1X with Elite unlock
CPLT-K2 with Basic unlock
CPLT-C1 with Basic unlock
CPLT-C4 with no unlocks (grinding cash for upgrades and loadout, currently)
CN9-D with a few unlocks

[vettie]

LOL I own more than 15

I have LOTS of C-Bills

Yen Lo Wang is only Hero mech (thus the only Bonus C-Bills I get)

Not a founder

Why keep something i'm not going to use? I'd rather have some cash back.

I understand your reasoning, and felt the same way, selling off anything I didn't feel I would want to play more.

Now I slap my forehead regularly at the waste. I failed to realize that as tech changes, so do my needs (and preferences). Case in Point: Commando ECM or Raven ECM has pretty much transformed the composition of light forces as well as catapult builds and playstyle. I suspect there are other changes down the road just as significant.

So you buy a mech for 11 million. You sell it back for three million. Tech changes. Needs change. Suddenly you would rather give that 3 million back if you could have your old ride back too.

[Pr8Dator]

4, 2 Catapults and 2 Cataphracts. I am a chicken walker fan.

[stjobe]

Ten.

Four founder 'mechs I don't really play after getting enough CB to buy a Commando.
Three Commandos (1B, 1D, 2D).
Three Centurions (A, AL, D).

[SUBZERO8K]

6 Mech's.

3 Atlases and 3 Jenners. One of the Atlases is my Founder's Mech.

[akke]

3 Commandos (1B, 1D, 2D)
16m c-bills

Sure, if you're in to FOTM builds and such. I like the Commando A and will be using it as my ride once I get the others maxed out on XP. i don't play a whole lot...only 200 games total since Open Beta released, so it'll take me a while. ECM may have 'transformed the composition of lights' in 4 and 8 mans, but it's not done much for PUGs. I regularly run into matches where only one team or neither team has any ECM. The only matches I've been in with multiple ECM have been with 4 mans.

Personally, I don't care about ECM and If I can't mount a BAP on the 3A, so be it. I like the Mech and I'm gonna use it. I also like the hunchback 4g. I'm not a munchkin player and am not seeking to min-max and look for highest K/D ratios. I prefer SRM 6 to streak. The damage potential is higher with the 6 and because I'm usually running around weaving in between the other team's Mechs, streaks are useless because of the need for lock-on. I like the AC 20 (though for some reason the Gauss seems a much more accurate weapon... projectile speed?) My Mechs are generally relatively close to stock with minor modifications... mainly because I haven't played enough to justify XL engines and such.

I sell stuff I'm never going to use once I'm done with it because I generally only like 1 build in a chosen group and there really is no reason to keep one around that I'm literally never going to use even if some new technology can only be used by a different variant.

[Zabnicki]

I only have two for now. I sold off my other two Hunchbacks and bought a Jenner to see what the fuss was all about, been messing with the layout and realizing, light mechs may not be my forte`.

[Ransack]

Four founders mechs Plus Atlas D-DC. Atlas K, Cat C4, Cat A1, and a Cataphract 3D.

Stopping there cuz I aint spending no more money on MC with the current pricing structure. and probably going to slow down on playing for a bit. Getting bored.
