If you are thinking through your orders to the point where you are actually writing down multiple conditionals and IF/THEN statements then you've got the time to actually look up the hit modifiers.

That's pretty much my general sentiment. Hit modifiers are purely addition and subtraction, and while there may be a question is if the line gets drawn through a woods you weren't expecting or the enemy is an ACE, it's usually pretty straightforward base + range mod + move mod + enemy move mod. There are no ACE units on this map, not even the infantry. The players are the aces, go nuts! PoptartsNinja fucked around with this message at 13:22 on Mar 31, 2018 |

Are you talking to me and why should I look up the hit modifiers? I think I fire on the hellfire on 7s? And the infantry on 9s?

Affi posted:I’ll revise my orders I always figured you did the math? I do. I also don't expect you to have to take everything into account, and having a contingency isn't bad as long as you're keeping things relatively straightforward. Many of the players who routinely provide 3-4 possible 'maybe' targets every turn probably know enough about BattleTech that they could work out the to-hits and determine if they feel it's worth the risk to make the shot or not. Having a back-up contingency is fine (in case your target gets taken out), but the more orders I have to process the higher the chances I'll miss something or gently caress something up, and this match I'm processing 12 sets of orders at the bare minimum. If everyone sends me 2-3 contingencies that's 24-36 chances for me to screw up every turn over what will likely be a 20 turn game. I do my best to be forgiving, which I'm probably not articulating well (I've gotten 4 hours of sleep in the last 72 so forgive me if this is incoherent), but if you can compute the to-hits... why not? If my numbers vary from yours it's entirely possible I hosed up. I won't get grumpy at a player if you call me on it (I reserve the right to be grumpy with myself though).

There's some confusion because the infantry are marked "ACE!" in their stat blocks. this is why I had contingencies in my orders, in addition to two cases of not totally clear LOS. also "just look up the to-hit modifiers" has gotten quite complex now, with weapons that give to-hit bonuses, camoflauge, I think our pilots have special cybernetics or some poo poo too? after turn one's firing when ptn posts the first firing logs I'll feel a lot more confidant. the quick start guides and even the battletech books I own have been left in the dust by the tech levels we're at now. Finally, contingencies are critical when you are submitting orders before you know what your lancemates are doing because it's wasteful of whole turns to target dead enemies. I believe my orders can be simplified now we know the infantry's Ace designation on their cards was a mistake, though. I dont think I broke any rules with the orders I posted regardless - the 12+ to hit is just shorthand for "can hit at all" which has always been allowed before, and otherwise I was only accounting for ace, LOS, modifiers I'm unsure about, and my teammate's unknown orders.

Okay, thead advice time. Will also check in with the doc soon. Thinking of strolling up to the hill (2137 or 2237) for partial cover and dumping into the infantry on top of the hill. Would 2035 let me hit a mech?

Yeah, I built that into the sheet because most of the time infantry react faster than BattleMechs. Not so much when the battlemechs are brain-controlled and wired directly into the pilot's senses.

Leperflesh posted:this is why I had contingencies in my orders, in addition to two cases of not totally clear LOS. There are none of those in this game right now, so go nuts. At worst, if the cybernetics aren't already baked into the skills, you're looking at a 1 point difference. 95% of the shots in this game are going to come down to: Skill + your move type + enemy move mod + range (+ terrain) (+ heat penalty) But really the more important takeaway from this conversation is just play the game and take the shots you want to. Building nested conditional chains is a lot more work for PTN for negligible at best advantage in a game with no Aces and lots of targets. Just pick one and shoot.

Just getting orders in at all, suboptimal or otherwise, puts you ahead of the people who can't send in an order but also forget/are too busy to give a heads up that they can't.

the JJ posted:Okay, thead advice time. Will also check in with the doc soon. 2035 puts you right at max range on the heavy PPC from the Hellfire, but is barely blocked from shooting it by the height two hill between you in 0825. Something like walking to 1835 lets you shoot the Sphinx on 2 base - 1 VDNI (your fancy implants make everyone a 1 base gunner) +1 walked + 2 range + 2 heavy woods = 6. That's a very good shot and the Sphinx is far far more dangerous than the Infantry. e: You could also shoot the Hellfire from 1835 with 1 base + 1 walked + 4 range + 1 partial cover = 5, but a ton of your team on the left side has shots on it and the Sphinx is more dangerous to you all. Normally I'm all about just taking the best numeric shot but this one can go either way. It might be worth focusing the Hellfire down first with everyone that can hit it just to remove the annoyance factor of giant amounts of unknown heat from you all's planning that it would introduce.

I hope he'll forgive me if I sometimes misunderstand exactly what is permitted, but in my experience he's a pretty good GM about this kind of stuff. So relax, it's OK. Here's my new orders, taking into account the infantry can't move first: quote:MOVE PHASE: I believe this works within PTN's guidelines. If I'm mistaken, I'm sure he can straighten me out himself. If anyone can tell me definitively that there's no LOS between 2035 and 2624, I can make it even simpler? e. is LOS drawn to and from the center of the hex, or can I draw LOS to any part of the target hex? I think it's to the center, in which case I'm like 80% sure there's no LOS there.

Oh yeah, I was talking about to-hit conditionals where there's no excuse for not doing the math yourself (or asking in the thread if you aren't sure, there's a million people who will know the answer). I don't think anyone has a problem with 'if target A has ceased to exist by the time you're rolling my dice, shoot target B'.

Got a last second player pass, so I'll be calling up an alternate to take on Legion #5. Fraction Jackson is up, if you can get short-notice orders in that'd be fine, if not I'll advance Legion #5 at a walking pace to keep up with the swarm. Edit: A personal request: with 12 players sending orders please try to trim anything "unnecessary" if it's at all possible. I don't need complete sentences, if you didn't jump and you're not ending with a turn you don't need to send facing, don't use a too many blank lines (I have to delete them when I throw everyone's orders into notepad), don't send physical attack contingencies if you're not moving adjacent to an enemy, etc. PoptartsNinja fucked around with this message at 17:25 on Apr 1, 2018 |

Rabbit Warren Update 2 One of the Rho Galaxy machines fell, its cockpit reduced to a smoking ruin by the first shot of Elias Combs’ PPC. As it toppled, he swiveled methodically and walked shots from his AP Gauss Rifles in a Z pattern over the nearest cluster of enemy infantry. They’d been stunned by the collapse of the lightweight weather shelter they’d been hiding in, and were easy pickings for the high-velocity gauss flechettes. He spent a moment watching the dust from his attack settle. That sort of perfect efficiency was what Angel lance strived for. Not only because it was effective, but because it could quickly cripple enemy morale. As if on cue, the enemy’s small Highlander analogue decided it would rather take its chances further downfield, putting heavy woods between itself an Elias. A triple comm squelch and the sudden appearance of a communications frequency on his peripheral HUD told him to tap into the enemy communications frequency. He did so even as a shell from the enemy JagerMech skipped off the Legion’s fully-armored head. “-vag!” A clanner was shouting. She sounded young. “They got Blaze in one shot! Did our scientist friends lose some prototype trashborn? Who are these monsters?!” A countdown appeared on Elias’s secondary monitor. A question like that couldn’t go unanswered—he’d have smiled if he still had control of his facial muscles, but the neurons whose job that was were devoted to the Legion’s primary camera system. Three. Two. One. And on zero every member of the company broadcast in unison, in the same measured tones that ensured they’d all finish nearly simultaneously. Cyborgs though they were, they weren’t entirely without ways to amuse themselves. “I am Legion,” Elias quoted, his voice joining the chorus. “For we are many.”     Movement Phase Legion #3 (Player) - Invalid final facing: Hex 0734 is not adjacent, original facing kept.

Mezzanon posted:What exactly did hitting with my TSEMP cannon do? What does "target suffers from interference" mean? It's under the effects of ECM (which means Streak SRMs function like standard SRMs, Artemis IV doesn't work, etc) and it's suffering a +2 penalty to all attacks next turn. On the downside, firing the TSEMP also gives you a +2 penalty to hit with shooting attacks next turn.

Nice, Mezzanon is in position to run over and kick the sphinx's leg off. Convenient that the Legion mech does exactly enough damage on a TSM kick to exactly take that amount of armor + internal structure! Looks like the train is heading for an exit on the 6 or 17 line, but we won't know for sure for a couple of turns. For everyone else, the Mad Dog E has no cover/a +2 move mod, and relatively quite light armor for the amount of firepower it's packing. It's probably better to try and focus fire on it before the light tanks, since you can one shot them with kicks.

Gwaihir posted:Nice, Mezzanon is in position to run over and kick the sphinx's leg off. Convenient that the Legion mech does exactly enough damage on a TSM kick to exactly take that amount of armor + internal structure! I was considering jumping over to the woods hex right next to the Sphinx and kicking it’s leg off. Good/bad plan? Any way I can make my jump take a whole 5 hexes or do I only jump in a straight line?
