Mezzanon posted:Hope for the best prepare for the worst. I think we've been doing a good job of supporting eachother and keeping move mods up and focus firing. Yeah I think everything is going as well as it can on the coordination front, even with the added difficulties of so many targets and all our mechs being identical except for the color patches. As long as we keep doing things well on that front, I'm happy. Worst thing we can do is ease up on the accelerator, you know?

Oh, look. I accidentally designed a 'Mech able to kick for exactly 37 damage (after ferro-lamellor's damage reduction) to a 'Mech with exactly 36 ferro-lamellor leg armor.

That Italian Guy posted:Well, I think I'm up next game and last time I've been able to, in a single fire round, send 2 Heavy Lasers and 2 Gauss slugs into the same hill by hitting 4 times a leg locations on a partially covered...Chameleon? I think. So I think we'll see a reverse of fortune pretty soon. Same; since I was on the Alternate list for this mission, I'm pretty sure I'm up next, so I really hope that PTN's dice don't sour on me and the current run of RNGesus continues. Seeing as how my last mission was a blast as part of HOGARTH'S HEROES, I have high expectations for what's coming next. PoptartsNinja posted:Oh, look.

Affi posted:Honestly didn’t know that was an illegal move but It’s sorta cool especially if we each kill our new targets with cockpit hits. Two mechs look at the same target, buddy buddy.

Society releases some gas to "improve" the protomechs sorta like a reversed TSM trap that fails and reinforcements come in from off map? (Or maybe from the water)

Protomechs are always an accounting nightmare. I always recommend making them weight twenty tons or more.

The key thing is for us to kill lots of them. This will reduce PTN's paperwork. Unfortunately, the enemy mechs are more dangerous so I think we're tending to favor them a bit right now, but we'll clean up the protos soon enough!

Rabbit Warren Update 7 There was no time to chat once battle was joined in earnest, but that was how Elias Combs preferred it. The Legion associated with one another out of necessity, tolerated one another’s presence and largely stayed out of each other’s way. They did not bunk together. They did not entertain one another. They were allowed private rooms and as much solitude as they cared for—which meant, outside of their ‘Mechs, they often went weeks without seeing one another. It took a very special sort of person to agree to be transformed into a Legion pilot, the invasive and time-consuming cybernetic surgeries left those who underwent them sterile and numb to pain. None of them cared, the allure of seeing through the “eyes” of a fourteen-meter tall death machine had been too great, as was the sheer exhilaration Elias felt when he opened fire with his PPC. Knowing that he would be greatly rewarded for turning that PPCs against irritants was merely icing on the cake. It took a sociopath to join the Legion. Certainly, most had been high-functioning before they’d joined. They could get by in society, feign emotional connections that they didn’t feel, and every single one would have gladly slaughtered everyone they’d ever known if they had the means, a motive, and thought they could get away with it. Which wasn’t to suggest they were murderers, although Elias suspected the Rim World Army would’ve looked the other way if they had been, but given proper motivation there was no incentive to even attempt to feign remorse. The Republic didn’t believe in the Death Penalty, after all. The truly broken were locked away where they could do no harm, while lesser criminals were assigned prison terms only long enough for the prisoner to be assigned to the next colonization mission. First generation colonists always had things rough, but giving offenders real, honest work to do to better their own situation was preferable to execution. The Republic was too efficient to waste anything—even the dregs of its society. Dregs like Elias. That thought amused him. Diana Mendez’s machine was staring straight at him with her bubble-shaped head’s directional camera. That camera was often the only cue the Legion had to their compatriot’s intentions. It showed which direction the other pilot planned to move. Elias did a quick calculation, then pointed his directional camera squarely at her machine as well. The two leapt in tandem, and seized the other’s left hand in mid-air. They held their grip only for a moment, just long enough for both the other’s jump jet thrust to spin them around, and then they were past. Elias touched down along the cliff wall, while Diana landed almost exactly in Elias’s footprints. The coordinated swap had done its job, most of the enemy’s shots at the flying pair of ‘Mechs missed wide. If they’d just kept their crosshairs in place they might have fared a little better. Elias shoved the enemy Copperhead with an open palm and shot it as it fell. He probably could have smashed one of its legs with a kick from the Legion’s taloned feet, but it wasn’t mercy that stayed his hand. He just wanted to illustrate two very simple facts to that enemy pilot: they were outclassed. And they were all going to die.

 So the osteon d can it flip its arms? And I’m thinking of going all out alpha this turn. How much heat is way too much heat? Which is the greatest threat? Osteon D or mad dog? I’m also considering just standing still because there is no way that crap pilot is going to land his dfa right? That’s a piloting skill check against my piloting skill or am I misremembering? (Legion ten can claim my spot? Force a piloting roll and have the osteon crash?)

Wow. That hellbringer Z was pristine, and me and me and #12 kicked all the armor off of both legs of the Osteon Prime, forcing two crit checks and leaving him highly vulnerable next turn. All things considered, I'm quite pleased with that! I've got a tank in the way of my run up north now, though, so I'll have to kill it. I'm sitting at the prime 9 heat but I don't think I can stay there, which means probably instead dumping all my heat and just taking an tsemp and two ap gauss shots at the tank in 2512. Assuming it's rubble, I'll have the movement to get through it and still hit the 2ndary target, hopefully. PTN, if an enemy unit is shut down from TSEMP, does it still block movement?

Wow another great turn. Keep it up! I think my statsheet image is a copy/paste of last turn's though. I took another two to the left leg and my heat should be down to 6 I believe. Leperflesh looks like I can follow in your footsteps again and try to finish off the Osteon this turn.

I don't think the Turkina Z can save the OpFor, what with only having a 5/6 pilot in there. This is brutal but not for the players.

Until SHODAN takes it over and it becomes a 1/1 pilot. And the Protomech's join her c3 network. And then the train opens up to reveal 4 more Turkina Z's.

I'd like to think that someone on the Society comms are basically like D3 Reaper of Souls opening at this point: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWa41eJjr0c&t=96s Because yeah, they should have run and they're all going to die.

Well, things could be worse for The Society. It could be the Clanners putting them down, and not the Legion. At least the Legion will make it quick.

Olothreutes posted:I think the head armor on Legion #3 didn't get updated. ATMs do damage in groups of 5, which means there's a group of 1 left over after the initial 35 points are allocated. Ferro-Lamellor armor reduces all incoming damage by 1, to a minimum of 0. It would still count as a Pilot Hit if the Legion weren't immune to those, but it does no damage. FerroLam is actually pretty good against iATM-12s in particular, because it's cutting full 8 damage off of 36 every time.
