Mad max with stompy robots sounds good F. Also I'm half expecting they've unearthed something like a Bolo rather than just a run of the mill Star League battlemech.

Does it really matter what they've uncovered? The journey is the important thing.

Dunerunners Salvage Crew
A prospector on the Periphery world of Enkra has struck it rich! A genuine BattleMech was found on his land. Lacking the equipment or the technical acumen to recover it, he�s put out a call to all the prospector crews of the Zegara desert: the first crew to make it on site gets a 60% cut of the profit from the BattleMech�s sale. The Dunewalkers are more than up to the challenge, but will they make it to the prospector�s mountain in time?

Aw hell, how could I say no to this?

F!

A vote for the Goliath Scorpions is a vote for elementals.

Deployed from a Kirghiz bomb bay directly onto some poor unsuspecting Widowmaker's face.

Can I pick all of the above? I cant? Well, damn. Space Mad Max sounds fucking great.

But kicking trashborn rear end? I'll have to go with C.

Tran: Feb 17, 2011; It's a pleasure to meet all of you. Especially in such a fine settin' as this. Just need us some music an' a brawl an' we'll be set.

D and F both sound like a lot of fun, but I really want more rebel clanners ruining poo poo, so I'm going with C. Last time we had clan defections we ended up with the four guardian deities/power rangers.

As an aside, a question for you PTN. When do you think we'll next get an update on the back channel ties between the FWL and Lyrian CW? Want to see how that potential power bloc turns out.

Edit: Is F set in the same part of space as the HBS game? It sorta' looks like it, but I'm not sure.

are you kidding? the tank mission was fantastic when it was clans vs the FedSuns. Weirdo junk tanks? it'll be great!

you'll get to use an AC/2 on a 3/5 tank and feel unstoppable

because you can't stop

because it has a design quirk of poorly maintained brakes

I really like the Dunerunners option, but in the end I have to pick B. Amaris needs a punch inna nose - not because he's evil but because he's just been too drat successful.

F, for a bit of a change of pace from large scale high tech brawls... Sounds like fun!

Playing as the Sea Foxes is a runner up for me, would be interesting to see the other side of the conflict a bit more, and maybe give them a win for a change - Amaris is way too confident.

B This is one of the harder theatre choices I've seen in this thread. All of them sound like great fun. Except the mystery box, which is a mystery. It could be a boat! The Dunerunners are a very close second choice for me. All gorkamorka mad max with robots kind of thing! But I want the Sea Foxes to get a turn at always getting initiative, let's see how Amaris likes that!

Are you sure it shouldn't be Mad Mechs? I feel you, though. This is definitely one of the missions in which I wish I could vote for two.
