What, a blood red Atlas (with the skull head motif every other Atlas has) isn't enough? Probably some mech silhouettes to show kills painted on its side added too.

Paint it with a giant NRWR flag and replace the skull with smirking Amaris. Add the ability to do a little finger-wag after it kills 2 robots in a single turn again.

Since Amaris's whole thing is trolling the poo poo out of the clans, they should just go ahead and paint every mech like the red Atlas. And also slap that theme onto aircraft... buildings... random trees... just constantly barrage Clan forces with reminders of their failures, relentlessly and to an absurd degree. Plus maybe broadcast the battle ROM over the air, set to a jaunty tune.

Air Raid: Tactical Update 15 “Keep your feet, Marshal,” Luiza Cardoso pressed the Salamander’s left hand against the back of the stricken Dragoon II’s right shoulder to steady it. The easily-identifiable Republic machine had weathered an inordinate amount of incoming fire over the course of the battle and its left side had been reduced to molten slag. Engine components exposed to air and moisture popped and fizzed as raindrops the size of golf balls burst on the exposed heat exchangers. “I’ll drag you off the field if I have to, but it’ll be easier for all of us if you can still walk.” “Kerensky’s blood,” Bethany spat as her Copperhead staggered under another barrage of PPC fire. “That Hellstar is—he is adhering to the Clan rules of engagement. Javelin, Hawk can not hear me: be sure you take the best possible cover against that white `Mech as you retreat. That one will not be satisfied without scoring a kill, and he will be very upset that I have retreated and denied him one.” “Roger,” Taj replied. “Don’t worry about me, viper—I’ll be right behind you, and I’ve still got my cargo.” “Good, don’t leave anyone behind.” Luiza paused, then added with a wry smile. “Not even the space-cop.”   Movement Phase Dragoon II Type-A - Sets Angel ECM primary effect to Ghost Targets (3 base + 2 ghost targets = 5): rolled 4, fails! - Sets Angel ECM secondary effect to Ghost Targets (3 base + 2 ghost targets = 5): rolled 8, Margin of Success: 1!

I think goon company made the right call on when to withdraw, trying for the 2 minute objective would have seen major casualties. Also, I'm glad that attempt at a kick by the Dragoon didn't see a comical slip and fall to it's death.

Oh, man. Those last two mechs are going to eat fire from like, at least five clanners.

Alright, Goonsquad. One more turn to go, but hell of a job nonetheless. I also see boomdoggie's about to leave you guys a parting gift.

I guess Ath really does want that kill, but now has wandered into the edge of a boom doggie's explosion zone in search of it. He'll likely survive that, and it's just bound to piss him off even more. Gun doggie picks up another kill for GoonMercenary Company, and I guess it's good that two mechs that got absolutely pounded this turn are getting the hell out right now. Shame about that headshot on the Black Python not connecting. Anyway, one more turn should do it; let's see how much more damage you guys can inflict on the Clans here before the withdrawal, besides the boom doggie going off.

Holy hell, the luck might not be coming through in terms of kills anymore (although the Clans still managed to lose a few mechs) but just surviving that round with no one else down was extremely clutch. I mean just look at the state of some of these mechs! The Dragoon is ravaged and the Copperhead isn't looking so hot either. Thankfully that was the last turn they have to be exposed to fire, so good job! If all six mechs extract next turn, is there anything stopping the Clans from blocking the extraction of the Screamer and Grasshopper by moving onto one of the vacated hexes? Because there's a worryingly high number of Clan mechs around the area that could do that, and the Grasshopper and Screamer on their own won't really have the means to fend them off. At a push, maaaaybe some of the mechs currently in the extraction zone could last one more turn although that's obviously risky too. Also godspeed you brave Revenants, continuing to inflict damage far beyond your BV/monetary cost. Amaris should send the rest of his army home and just have the Demon Hawks and the Good Dogs run the rest of the war. Edit: So the Grasshopper is still carrying Icepick - I don't know if we worked out the mechanics of what'll happen if he gets shot in the arm carrying him, but hopefully being the only target the Clans can vent on won't end badly!

Both the Grasshopper and Screamer are within jump range of the rear hexes in that escape zone, so I think they're in the clear. anakha fucked around with this message at 01:03 on Jun 23, 2016 |

On the upside if any mech on the field can eat that kind of fire it's the Grasshopper. Second dogsplosion looks like it could be another double kill too! Like those two revenants have dropped 2 clan lights completely and clowned a clan assault hard. That's absolutely ridiculous. Clans have gotta be seriously desperate for a kill here. 21+ mechs in exchange for a single Chameleon (without the pilot even) is not a good look for anyone's career.

Poptarts has said that as long as the extraction zone is blue when the players move into it, they're good. The OpFor literally can't do anything to keep them from retreating at this point besides killing them in next rounds firing phase. And at that point one will be highly armored and in partial cover where only like 4 mechs can even shoot at it, and the other should have a very high move mod. What I'm trying to get at is that all of the Clanners are going to roll boxcars on every weapon next turn and both remaining players are going to die.

Goddamn, this was a tight extraction. Totally the right call to bail now. Another turn and we'd probably lose most of a lance's worth of mechs.
