the 35-ton mech is just labeled "mech" instead of "battlemech" so it's definitely a pre-production powerman that pirates strapped some guns to

would it be reasonable to change the colours of damaged armour/structure on the paper dolls? just the number, or maybe the background behind the number. imo it would make it easier to see at a glance what's been hit vs what's still fresh

"hey stingbad, i need to be kicked in the head!" blackjack has the incredibly spicy option of just charging forward to use the flamers on the thunderbolt PTN, are we using the rule where flamers cause damage and heat, or the vanilla rule where you have to chose which one you're doing?

PoptartsNinja posted:She watched the pilot struggle with restraint straps that wouldn’t unlatch automatically until the command couch landed on a solid surface, trying to free themselves as the swirling winds sucked them straight into the center of the canyon—and then they were swallowed up by the river rapids; swept away so quickly even Prodigal’s beagle probe couldn’t track them. should've packed a knife instead of an icepick, Icepick!

Bloody Pom posted:The worst part? It doesn't even look all that bad. Certainly more pleasing to look at than a lot of Civil War/Jihad-era designs.  using the most-modern art of each and making sure the angles lined up helped a lot. just wish i'd found a higher-resolution pic of the banshee, the pixelated torso PPC bugs me a lil e: imo the funniest part was covering up the WHM's torso ML and then adding the BLM's torso ML to replace it

Bloody Pom posted:You could quite literally run circles around the thing and potentially even kick at its legs without it ever being able to retaliate (I think, I don't remember if torso twisting+arm firing arcs also affect melee. Getting backhanded by an 85-tonner would not be ideal.) torso twist does affect the firing arc for physical attacks (when applicable) and punches can hit the side arcs (with one arm) so it would be a very spicy move

i think the maps are borked, first map doesn't show player movement (second one does) and second map doesn't show new enemy movement on a different note, in what situation would it be good for the battlemaster to jettison the PPCs? i can definitely see the benefits if you've got a gauss rifle and it's likely to explode, though biosterous fucked around with this message at 07:18 on Jan 10, 2024 |

it kinda hurts to see a 2/3 pilot in a mech with just one ML and one SL lol it all makes sense from both the fluff and the votes, but still
