I got Paul Masters shot out of his Orion because "assuming average LRM damage!!" means Ion Rush kills you for trying to draw fire. That said, I hope the poor guy is now safe and sound and back among his friends, riding around in a shiny new Orion.

My new avatar and tag sorta blend together, it kinda owns edit: I guess this means I might as well actually sign up to take a turn at piloting, right?

It is an optional tacops rule. To make this post not low content, I still say that the bobcat is pretty aces as a mech.

The Bobcat is clearly some kind of bullshitanium alloy supermech from the future. In other news, this gangtag looks pretty sweet.

Speaking of it seems that whenever Goonlance fights for the FWL we get our mission saved by a completely freak dice roll taking out a dangerous mech instantly. This warrants further testing to see if it keeps happening.

As a FWL player I can confirm that more than a few matches are determined by round 1/2 Ostsols blowing their legs out after MASC failure, or by TACing out the gyro of an enemy's assault.

The gangtag is beautiful. I hope I'll be able to have a turn before the thread ends. It looks like this match is just about over. I gotta say, the Hermes seems like a pretty good MVP vote for me. For OpFor it's a close call between the Griffin and the Bobcat.

Pretty lucky roll there with the AC/5 breaking through the rear armor and taking out the gyro of the Coyote like that. Now if only you guys could have that kind of luck when dealing with the Bobcat. Also, the new gangtag is beautiful. Maybe I'll pick it up after my turn to play rolls around...

Alright, I've searched through the MW:O thread and here, and I just can't find it but I know it was one of the two. Someone posted a mod that was letting you control an IS great House, handling mech deployments and poo poo. I meant to take a second look at it, but I was at work and then forgot about it. Anybody remember the mod name, or the guy who posted it or anything?
