The Firestarter staggered, its robotic guts running molten orange as Tjris Amirault’s heavy laser cut it in half. The coruscating plasma erupting from its flamers sputtered and died as they sucked away the last of the little `Mech’s power. Its torso warped irreparably, the`Mech fell sprawling to the ground with a rumble Tjris barely felt through the soles of his combat boots. He did not gloat, took no exultation in this victory. It was just how the game was played: win until you were outbid. Win until you lost everything. Win, and in fifteen years the next generation of warriors may even remember your name. Win enough, and in fifty years everyone would remember your name. “Star Captain, one of the new designs is withdrawing,” Nicodemus reported in terse comlang. “Excellent shooting, Hastur,” Tjris replied automatically. A feed of the retreating `Mech flashed on his side monitor for an instant until Tjris killed it with the push of a button. He had no need to watch the replay, he simply knew which of his warriors had made the crippling shot. The ever-silent Hastur didn’t even grunt in reply. “An impressive design,” Kiren Ravenwater complemented. “PPCs and massed small lasers. I shall have to mirror it when I next refit iktomi.” Tjris’ stern expression cracked into a faint smile. “You put far too much pride in that little spider of yours, Kiren. Perhaps one day you will adopt a real Hell Horse `Mech.” Kiren laughed, “Perhaps, Star Captain. I can only outgrow one comfort at a time.” Mission Objectives: Secure the Dropships (incomplete) Hold off the 1st Kestrel Grenadiers (incomplete) Optional Defeat the 1st Kestrel Grenadiers’ 2nd Battalion (2/40) Death Commandos: Defeat more Kestrel Grenadiers than the Hell’s Horses (2/40) Hell’s Horses: Defeat more Kestrel Grenadiers than the Death Commandos (1/40)  Key: H1 Rifleman IIC, H2 Cougar D, X1 Banshee IIC H3 Wolf Spider A, H4 Mad Dog Prime, H5 Stormcrow H X2 Exterminator IIC, X3 Archer, X4 Po X5 Blackjack, X6 Dervish, X7 Vindicator X8 Mongoose, X9 Cyclops IIC, X10 Marauder X11 Merlin, X12 Atlas, H6 Gargoyle Tjris Enemy Movement Mods: S1 Mackie +0 S2 Battlemaster +0 S3 Awesome +0 S4 Sunfire +0 S5 Valkyrie +3 Jumped S6 Valkyrie +3 Jumped S9 Sunfire +0 S10 Sunfire +0 S11 Sunfire +2 S12 Sunfire +1 S13 JagerMech +1 S14 JagerMech +0 S15 JagerMech +0 S16 JagerMech +0 F1 Firestarter +3 Jumped F2 Firestarter +3 Jumped F4 Firestarter +3 Jumped F5 Hunchback, F6 Hunchback, F7 Hunchback, F8 Hunchback F9 Grasshopper, F10 Grasshopper, F11 Grasshopper, F12 Grasshopper G1 Phoenix Hawk, G2 Phoenix Hawk, G3 Phoenix Hawk, G4 Phoenix Hawk, G5 Grasshopper, G6 Grasshopper, G7 Grasshopper, G8 Grasshopper G9 Shadow Hawk, G9 Shadow Hawk, G9 Shadow Hawk, G9 Shadow Hawk Dropships: Too high to fire at, do not block movement.

So, couple of things. It looks like the first Guided HVAC/10 shots didn't get the rolled to hit numbers included, but they didn't have damaged listed either so I guess it doesn't matter. Also, for the one that DID hit, didn't you mention during the design contest that indirect fire HVAC/10 rounds did damage in 5 point clusters?

The Jagermech redesign didn't carry acid rounds, though I expect PTN is looking forward to bringing the Mackie into play to show them off.

Belial42 posted:Stormcrow here. No clue on where I should move to get away from the flames. If I'm reading the fire rules correctly, you have nothing to worry about. You don't have any explosive ammo, and have a ton of heat sinks. Just fire one fewer heavy laser, or two fewer medium lasers, and heat shouldn't be an issue. Edit: Try to use the fire as cover from the Sunfires/Jagermechs. The last thing you need is to get focused fired because you got separated from your group. fool of sound fucked around with this message at 04:37 on Dec 5, 2012 |

Stick with the heavies and watch your back, the side of the river that we're on is going to become increasingly hot and full of rear end in a top hat IS mechs. Anyone still on our side of the river when the Grasshoppers drop is dead as dogshit.

Not a bad turn there, we traded a lot of good damage for not so much in return. If we can keep up the punishment we can win this. Edit: Ok, nevermind. I forgot I was shooting S5 and PTN already fixed it. SageNytell fucked around with this message at 14:03 on Dec 5, 2012 |

Oh hey, Forced Withdrawl rules. That should definitely help out the Players in running off Davion's goons, since you don't need to worry about putting down every last one of them.

And when you lose all your weapons and take two engine crits it might be a good time to leave.

Yeah, I have a critical hit to the CT of S8. Hopefully we'll get lucky and get an engine hit so that it'll withdraw. Unless that's a typo, and it was supposed to say S5.

Just curious, but do forced withdraws count as a mission kill for the last one to shoot it, or does it just go into the generic 'defeat the 1st Kestrel Grenadiers’ 2nd Battalion' mission(which shouldn't that be 3 now?) By the way, I am taking that DC/HH 'competition' semi-seriously. Kind of a fun little bonus game as it were.

I'd say the withdrawing 'Mech can't count as a kill until it's off the field; at that point it should go in the defeated enemies but shouldn't count for a 'kill' for either faction. That's how I'd run it were I PTN, but I'm not crazy enough to be PTN so who knows how much that's worth.

Shouldn't F4 be taking a piloting test? I did 20+ damage to him.

Come on Hell's Horses, you can take whatever Davion's throwing at you Can you DC guys just stand about firing at the woods or something? Oh, another secret PTN weapon? This could be good.

You can run south and around that little hill around 3028 or 2929. Gives you movement and cover, and sets you up for next turn. Your shots won't be as great, but it still puts you in a not-bad spot. You're fast! You don't have to always advance.

40 dmg in a single round. Loving this Rifleman! Viewing it almost as an awesome -- heat it up and then cool it down.

seekerwithin posted:40 dmg in a single round. Loving this Rifleman! It does play the same way, down to being an almost unkillable brick as well; alternate 4/4/3 or 4/3/4/3 all day long. The main difference is that the RFL has no minimum range and also that clan LPLs are one of the most unbalancing weapons in the game; you're basically always firing at an effective one range bracket closer than you actually are. There is a reason that, for example, it was banned for a long time on Legends.

Gotta love it when clan spergs bitch and whine about the narrow band where a snub nosed ppc performs as well as a clan lpl.

T.G. Xarbala posted:As has been repeated before, Clan Large Pulse Lasers are made of concentrated bullshittium. After my first time using a Rifleman IIC in a game, I made custom variants for all the Clan mechs I use that are armed with LPLs, replacing them with either ERLLs or ERPPCs, then reconfigured the mech from there.
