He would show up in game in a six flamer Jenner, fire continuously until he exploded, type "FREE PALESTINE" in chat and then quit out. Sonshi's Art of War has some vague, but interesting things to say with regards to this. It's a pretty short read, I highly recommend it.

She Also don't capitalise just a part of my name, its insanely rude and incredibly hosed up. capitalise all of it or none of it Also also all the cool people in the fighting cocks should probably just merge with KDR to form the Kaetatoa Democratic Republic, between the two of us we'll probably be able to throw together a whole 13 or 14 people(WoW wHoA!!!) alternate name, come up with by greatest mechwarrior online commander Autsj: Kill Death Cocks

Ok then, enjoy the crappy builds in the OP. (I'll likely put together a "selection" of really bad assault builds in the third post as my motivation to stay late today wears thin, focusing on assaults I actually own, or about 14 of them)

Cool, I'd like to get about three decent builds for each class of IS, and one for each Clan. It doesn't need to be exhaustive, that's what the wiki is for. Aside from built-for-quirk mechs, I've been running 'mechs I like rather than maybe the Best Robots, so I would appreciate assistance in getting the OP meta-compliant. It's pretty easy to swap the chassis out in the OP as well, so whatever's good, ya know?

Yes. http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=237&l=9d2791d9536ee39125bf89c2dd83c90eb4a55c92 It has an XL engine, but I haven't found that to be a problem yet. It runs amazingly cold, has great pinpoint damage at 100 to 500 meters, and moves decently quickly for a crab. http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=237&l=b9ef64a47ac01d95c3e994a5358d618fb060580b 325 std engine, 2 ER large lasers, 2 AC 20's. Hit things when they get close, but something to poke at incoming targets.

Here's a better atlas DDC build, the Ghost Dad Mk. LXIX (thats mk. 69, for those of you who, like me, cant read roman numerals without googling them) Scrap that loving LRM boat awesome. Remove it from the OP entirely. Remove awesomes from the OP entirely, unless someone has some piece of poo poo PPC thing they want to share. Also remove catapults from the OP entirely. Pretend they now longer exist. Especially the ones that use LRMs. You could keep a gaussapult around for old times' sake, but be sure to mention that it's an ancient relic and not worth using over a gauss jagermech(I think the jagermech S is the best mech for dual gauss now?) That thunderbolt build has AMS and a really stupid armour spread so here's a better one: http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=115&l=be47274a5c14456e3896779ee9cea1863d0df921 Centurion build is probably fine(for a bad IS brawler), if underarmoured, and the front/rear armour spreads suck, but i d g a f The firestarter build is completely terrible. AMS and a lower-than-maximum-rating engine? Get that poo poo out of here. Throw this thing in there instead http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=140&l=d88cdf6fbcff2bf31af9d9e7eb6bb6d20d7e1055 maybe this thing too if you think the 8SPL build is worthwhile(it's really not): http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=139&l=bf5640cada574d5b4d7848f0ffa28b7ae1773a17 Raven build is also bad, I told DonVincenzo to use something like this and he has had some decent success with it as far as I know. I don't really care about ravens enough to buy one again and try it out, but any sort of close range fit(especially one that uses missiles) is going to be god awful against any sort of competent opposition Here's some clan mech builds that I mostly use(the timber wolf one is not actually the ~~~most optimal one~~~ but whatever) timber wolf stormcrow dire wolf Oh and here's a shadow hawk I guess http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=154&l=21defca531e335e5f69c4efeb09bf8f394b40a7f I have a lot more builds laying around that I could probably post but at that point you may as well use some stupid loving goon wiki or whatever(like KDR's google drive, which only the most elite and autistic mechwarriors have access to)

The best king crab builds are probably assymetrical things that use an AC/20 and then some missiles or some PPCs/large lasers, combined with a giant standard engine. They're basically atlas/hero stalker builds except on a worse chassis for most things(sure looks cool though)
