I'd also like to get in on this. Gonna toss my hat into the ring as a mech pilot. I'll have PM's available by the time things are ready to go. As for a side, I think I'm gonna go with the Kell Hounds as well. I've always enjoyed the mercenary groups in Battletech, and this looks like a fun one to try out.

I'm going to have to vote for Option A If Max is already interfering because he feels left out, shoving him into a closet politically is only going to make him madder. He'll still have friends out there, and then it'll be Justin who has to watch out for the backstab. Better to just strike first, and strike decisively.

Well, I'll jump on the 2nd Donegal bandwagon for the main vote. For the sub-vote, I'm gonna have to go with SC. Probably not gonna win, but I am amused by the pair name and combination of mechs.

The only things that really piss me off is that I didn't even get a chance to resolve the DFA, and I couldn't finish off the train. Oh well, so much for my run at this...

ShadowDragon8685 posted:If I may, he might have been thinking that the DFA would be resolved before the effects of the incoming fire. That doesn't even seem so strange; after all, 45 tons of falling metal should be 45 tons of falling metal whether it's being piloted at the time it falls or if it's a 45-ton collection of recently-disassociated parts... Because it's still 45 tons of freaking falling metal. Pretty much this is exactly what I thought. That, and you people were all clamoring for a DFA earlier, so I was trying to put on a good show before going out. I assure you, I'm kicking myself more than enough for all of you. Still, I'm inclined to believe that we managed a decent run of things, even if the objectives are not 100% complete.

Being a mech pilot is rather like being a gladiator in ancient times. It's not enough to win, you have to put on a show or else the folks in the stands get all kinds of cranky. I messed up, but in the end I'll accept that the whole thing looked pretty darn spectacular. As for MVPs, here's my votes: Players - Javelin You did a good job going up and taking out the club solo, then managed to pull off the damage goal at the end, and still die pretty. Home Guard - Von Luckner I blame you for everything. Loki - The Chopper That thing did a good job harassing our team, and drawing folks into a bad situation. It also managed to survive the whole encounter, despite my best efforts.

Political Vote 5 (Clovis Lestrade): C1) Marry Jenna Clay on Summer. Clovis seems like a bright kid. I think he can work something out without having to deviate the plan and put his father on alert for shenanigans. Political Vote 5 (Red Corsair): R3) Assist the Free Worlders in repelling the fake Red Corsair pirates. Yesterday's foe is today's friend. Such is the way of things in the Inner Sphere. Political Vote 5 (Takashi Kurita): T5) Allow the Yakuza to serve as ‘Mechwarriors, create the Ghost Legions. I have no argument here other than that it sounds the most awesome, so there.

It's unlikely to win, but I'm very intrigued by the concept of a raid on a major population center. I'm gonna have to vote for E. We are getting to a bit of a saturation point with Clan fights, and pirates allow for some interesting gameplay.

Well, things continue to remain gripping. Glad to see that the Goonsquad managed to pull off another victory through some good shooting and a whole lot of luck. Votes I'm gonna hafta vote 1 in this case. I'd like to see where this is going, and more activity involving free Skye certainly has my backing. As for the MVPs, I'm going to vote for the Ostroc for the player team and the Bombadier for the OpFor team. The Ostroc did a drat good job being where he needed to, and getting some well-timed hits at the right moments. The Bombadier gets mad props for being a proper fire-support mech who managed to unload almost all of his shots, got the only kill on the that side, and managed to get out without much damage at all.

Now that was a man truly in tune with his Mech. The MASC system worked the entire way through, and sacrificed itself in the end to see its owner home. Congratulations to the Goonstar for a hard-fought victory. That was a nail-biter all the way through until the end. Goonstar MVP: Der Waffle Mous It was a tough call between DWM and our replacement Ilkhan for MVP, but I gotta give it to DWM for accomplishing the mission and not giving up, even in the face of terrible odds. OpFor MVP: Yorinaga Kurita Even though he failed in the end, he managed to be a threat for a good portion of the match.

Fortunately it's turn one and they're fast enough that a single turn won't leave them out of position. My apologies. I got distracted last night after waiting to the last minute while trying to coordinate with other players, so I didn't get a chance to actually send the orders I was discussing in thread.

I couldn't find a good place to put it to contribute, so I tried to move it somewhere where it could respond to whatever happens, trying to avoid being in sight. If I failed at that, I apologize in advance for the mistake.

W.T. Fits posted:Adding to that, I just realized that if we did that, we'd be in LoS for whatever's in 1621 when it moves to 1024. I'm also realizing that we aren't going to be able to cross the street ahead of us without being spotted by that patroller going back and forth on it. We'll want extra firepower to back us up before we try that. I think chilling for a turn is a good option right now.

Hitman/Mongoose If we're going loud, I can kick on the MASC and start running the Hitman towards the objectives. It'll definitely set off everyone else, but I can start getting eyes on objectives in the next few turns. The Mongoose can start moving up and help provide a bit of fire as well.

I'm cool with getting my guys in to fight and spotting with the Hitman, but it's worth noting that where that Clan mech patrolling the 07XX road ends up next turn will have it spot the Mongoose. We're going to need to push up and follow through quickly to keep things under control. That's if we manage to get this Wyvern down this turn. Either way, I'm good to kick the scouts into high gear and start hunting for the Command Center in the next couple turns.

anakha posted:If you engage MASC and get to 1126, I think 0823 blocks LOS from 0723 to that hex. I'm hesitant to use MASC in this case, as failure means I don't get shots on the Wyvern. The Hitman crossing that street to get to short range may warrant a spot check anyways, so I'd rather just assume he's gonna spot us and position in a decent spot with both my Mechs.

Hitman/Mongoose After thinking it over, I'm not gonna risk the MASC failure on the Mongoose. Gonna put it in 0827 and the Hitman in 1223. I'll TAG with the Hitman and light up the Wyvern with all the lasers I can muster. If we prevent the reinforcements we can push forward into the patrolling mech. If not, we'll be running for the targets anyway.

Gwaihir posted:I'd highly suggest 0925 for the Hitman, 1223 is only making your own shots worse while also making it easier for the Wyvern to hit you +putting yourself in range of his machine guns. You don't get a better move mod in 1223. 0925 it is. We'll see how this goes.
