Battletech
« on: September 18, 2010, 06:21:42 PM »
I got the Solaris Skunk Werks up and running on my Mac!  YAY!
So, I was wondering if anyone was interested in a Mech on Mech, or perhaps Lance on Lance battle.  I'm not sure about how to balance it, perhaps BV?

weight works fine for mech on mech, me and earl always went for the "i got a new shiny and wanna try it out"  VS  "look what i did on mech builder i wanna try it out"

speaking of mechbuilder... I'm putting together the CDA-3M cicada, but the heat sinks (10 Double) do not show up on the printed out sheet under the critical table. I noticed that sometimes they don't is there a reason for that?

"All fusion engines come 10 ten heat sinks of the type used by the 'Mech (Clan or IS, double or single). A number of heat sinks equal to the 'Mech's engine rating divided by 25 are integral to the engine and don't need to be allocated critical slots, though they do take up tonnage if they bring the total to more than 10."

I now have 12 Mechs, and am looking for a fight.  I'm thinking of making my own Mercenary Company called: Interstellar Executive Solutions, or I.E.S. for short.
(Based on a real life Mercenary Company called Executive Outcomes whose name I thought was cool in that it seemed really like a normal company, with guns) 
I am free Thursday 1/26/12.

Tuesday would be a good day for me, or Friday whichever is better for you. But any idea on the BV/Tonnage of your unit?

So we'll do 4/4 skil across the board then roll when we meet at vet or so experience? I'll probably end. yp with a Nova, star(5) of mechs and a star(5 squads) of elementals. Unless you dont want to face battle armor.
