Would a 7/5 pilot be cheaper and faster to train than a 5/6 pilot? It'd be perfect for the Kanga Jump Tank if it sees the light of day. I suppose a more serious and expensive Lyran melee mech for ceremonial dueling purposes would also benefit from an expensive and time-consuming pilot (with some gunnery skill due to circumstances, but specialized towards piloting).

Readingaccount posted:Would a 7/5 pilot be cheaper and faster to train than a 5/6 pilot? No. Vehicles use whole crews, and that's weight based. The Kanga's what, 50 tons? That'd give it a 3 man crew. That's expensive no matter what. VVVV Probably, quads get an inherent bonus to piloting tests and have four legs to spread out their self-damage a bit. They also get more armor than other `Mechs of the same weight (an 80 ton quad can mount as much armor as an Atlas; but that's where that benefit ends).

A quad is probably best for the concept of a dedicated DFA then?

In coming up with the fluff for my submission, I ended up creating a sort of companion design and kind of wish I could have submitted it alongside the main one. I'm really quite proud of both of them.

Man, I would always be that most hated guy if I played custom designs in TT games. Just noodling around with stuff for this contest, doing a 95t quad, 19t armor, 4/6/4 with TSM 17 DHS, and 11 MPLs + 2 ERMLs. Max heat: 58 Dissipation: 34 TSM powered jumping quad kicks with a side of hot laser rear torso death: Priceless.

Firebee - Must pass a piloting test (5 base + 0 missed kick = 5): rolled 6, succeeds! “The Rommel’s moving up on you, get clear Fynn.” “Don’t worry—” Weber had only barely begun to say when his cockpit went completely dark. He sat in stunned silence for a moment before uttering a vile string of curses that could’ve stripped paint. His cockpit’s electrical systems had simply quit, without any warning lights or audio cues. That shouldn’t have been possible: if the primary systems failed, the secondary systems should’ve taken over. And then the tertiary systems if the original back-ups failed. Only a complete engine failure should’ve cut power so completely, but the steady thrum of the `Mech’s fusion-powered heart told him that hadn’t happened. Weber fought with his cockpit restraints, freeing himself with a victory cry that turned to a shout of alarm as his Griffin rocked under a hit from the Rommel’s main gun. He landed heavily, his head glancing from a secondary monitor. The hardened steel-ceramic corner drove painfully into his left shoulder; but he took the hit without complaint. He had more important things to worry about than a little bruising. Dropping to his hands and knees, Fynn found the quick-release for the floor panel covering the cockpit’s power systems, and winced. The secondary and tertiary power systems ended in blank rubber caps—they’d never been connected by the production lines! That was something no experienced technician should’ve missed, but Fynn’s machine was so new it’d never been given a thorough inspection. An arc of blue-white plasma crossed the six inch span between the primary line and its connection point. It sputtered and coughed, scoring blackened lines into the insulated metal on which it sat. Fynn stared, then laughed bitterly under his breath. Being electrocuted was better than anything the Taurians would do to him. With a fearful wince Fynn did what may have been the stupidest thing he’d ever done in his entire career: he seized the insulated power cable with his right hand and thrust it against the bare metal connecter it’d detached from. A few moments later, he woke up on the other side of the cockpit; bright purple and green afterimages swimming through his vision. The plasma arc had gone—the power cable had fused itself to the primary feed and his cockpit’s monitors flickered as they quickly rebooted and reconnected themselves to the Griffin’s core DI Computer. He stood with a groan, his right arm sluggish and unresponsive. A black burn three inches wide stretched across his palm, and a hole perhaps four inches across had been burned through the shoulder of his field uniform, right where his shoulder had brushed the back of the command couch. Still, his fingers responded—sluggishly—to his brain. He could toggle primary targeting over to the left-hand joystick easily enough. At least he wasn’t dead. ************************************************************************ “Crazy Cowboys are as eager for this fight as we are,” Anne Bellard said with a grim smile. She stuck to her target, a little Taurian Toro, like glue. The matchup was in her favor—the Toro was built for long-range fighting while her ancient Firebee excelled at close-range. The Toro sported perhaps a half-ton more armor, but now that she was close there was nothing the Taurian pilot could except try to buy itself a little breathing room or lure her into a trap. A difficult prospect when fighting a canny light `Mech pilot, made even harder when the light `Mech in question sported enough jump jets to flank any would-be ambushers. Anne lived for fights like this: not the fight itself but crushing some arrogant son of a bitch who strutted onto the battlefield as though he’d already won the fight. In Anne’s mind, the Taurians were now the worst exemplars of this breed of `Mechwarriors. They’d expected some shock-and-awe and some nukes to win the fight for them, to demoralize the Duchy’s garrison forces and pave their way to a swift and painless take-over. Well, they’d been wrong. Dead wrong. Their bombs hadn’t killed Anne. They hadn’t killed the Sirdar Militia. And now the Taurians were going to pay in blood for every square centimeter of soil they tried to occupy. She’d see to it personally.

apostateCourier posted:Welp. Get in those orders, or you'll eat AC-20 rounds. They are not tasty and are terrible for the digestion. In his defense, he did send me orders. At 2:00 PM. Today. Three days after the 72 hour deadline (not a big deal as I couldn't have updated on Monday or Tuesday) and about 3 hours after I started working on the update. I was going to say "I'm not doing this to make you feel bad," but that's not true. I want you to feel bad enough to start sending your orders. I want all of my players to succeed but I also want to update in a timely fashion. Ever since Google Docs was implemented as a planning tool, that consistently hasn't been happening. I'm starting to wonder if taking the discussion / planning out of the thread was a good idea. I try to get to questions as quickly as I can, and you guys have been great at asking questions in a timely or semi-timely fashion; but remember: this thread is also a resource. There're plenty of experienced players right here who would be more than willing to help you plan, especially if you're just looking for someone to bounce ideas off of. It doesn't even have to be public if you're worried about me seeing your plans early. I like to think I've gotten pretty good at using my always-lose initiative to dictate the terms of most fights, so knowing the plans you're considering doesn't really give me a lot of advantages.  Just a quick "Hey, I need someone to bounce ideas off-of, would someone send me a private message?" will probably get you a really quick response.

Oof! That Griffin. "Alright, let's just work that into the narrative." Gotta get your orders in, it's only a single PM. Even if you don't know if you're making the right move, making any move is better than nothing. And if something's come up and you'll be away for a while, it's courteous to give PTN and the rest of your Goonlance a heads up.

Ouch, that Griffin ate a big hit there. Nice fluff for it standing still when no orders were received in a timely manner. I remember getting a lot less fluff but still a pretty decent explanation for that when it happened to my Banshee last mission after I didn't get any orders in on time. Still, you guys should really get your orders in on time. I've kinda grown attached to the pair from the DNS militia in Impact Point Zero in the small amount of time we've seen them, and would hate to see something untoward happen to the two of them...

I just found this excellent thread. I would love to sign up to be a pilot evansbr@gmail.com Looking over the last round I have a few questions: 1) Why did the Toro not take a PSR at +2 during the shooting phase (Hip Actuator Destroyed)? 2) How did the Toro make a kick attack with a damaged hip? 3) If I'm reading this right, the Toro has already moved. How did it use 7 MP when its profile should be 3/5/0 (half movement for damaged hip). 4) I assume the Toro passed its PSR to run with a damaged Hip actuator? If you've streamlined these rules to make GMing easier, I understand. I streamline quite a few things when I run BT games for new players. I also think you're doing an excellent job with your adjustments to canon, please keep it up! MadGamer fucked around with this message at 04:50 on Sep 19, 2013 |

Looks like the Drillson is about to deposit some Bio-Hazard proofed guys at the bunker door.  If it was me I'd just go for the full win like the Raven, rather than sacrifice odds to haul in a secondary for sure, but this makes for the better story. Plus maybe there's some sort of information or other type of advantage to be had (asking a player to stand close to it for 6 rounds is quite the order after all), it's a long shot, but possible. - DNS Goons are really tearing through Impact Point Zero despite their handicap this round. The Talos on the Rommel is just adorable.

Apologies if this has already been posted, but it turns out George Ledoux has been doing a series on Youtube called 'The Duncan Fisher Minute'. There are five episodes so far, each about a minute long, with the latest one having been uploaded five days ago. If you can't get enough of the voice of Solaris I recommend checking them out.

You've been consistently very late with your orders. I'm easy to work with: if you need more time just ask, I can accommodate. It's the silence I don't like. Edit: And the Toro's "movement" has been updated to account for its broken hip.

Is my Blakjack able to punch things or can I not do that because my arms are guns?

Yes you can, but the damage is halved and then halved again if you don't have actuators. The Blackjack punches for 1 damage.

I'm glad to see you're taking a hard line stance on "72 hours means 72 hours", PTN. It's certainly better for your sanity, and we get more updates.  AC20s make for powerful motivation.
