Hello everyone

So, i've built an amazing CTF-4X that everyone should view. I'll try n' repost with a sync drop video of 8 of those CTF-4X 's droppin against either an 8 man or some pub's.

Enjoy,

Pando

Machines guns are < amazing, but I'm interested in your ideas and would like to subscribe to your mechlab builder.

That is the fear I wish to instill into every enemy we fire upon with 32 MG's and 416,000 MG rounds.

Umm... why not at least invest in C.A.S.E.?

If my math is right (and it might not be), that is 52000 rounds of MG ammo on the mech, and capable, theoretically, of doing 2080 total points of damage (if every round hits an enemy mech).

It would take 1300 seconds or just shy of 22 minutes to use all of that MG ammo. A match lasts a maximum of 15 minutes. Even if you start firing as soon as the match starts, don't die, and the match runs the full 15 minutes (and few do), you will still have 16000 rounds (8 tons) of MG ammunition left at the end of the match, and would have spent at least part of the match literally shooting at nothing.

And yes, I know I'm ignoring the lasers and SRM in the possible damage output, but they're not the ridiculous parts of the build, so I see no reason to include them.

My point is it would be funnier to keep firing with half your machine guns than it would be for every crit to set off a chain reaction that destroys the entire mech. Just as hilarious? Also, if you're going for purely comedy... why aren't all these Cataphracts armed with LRM5's?

I played a 4 MG build on my 4X before this. I went to the tunnel alone in the frozen city and was greeted with a cataphrac, atlas and a catapult. I got the phracs armor to red before I went down. He will remember me from all the hurt I put him in, that's for sure.

So tempted to build this and actually run it.
