"níð was a term for a social stigma implying the loss of honour and the status of a villain. A person affected with the stigma is a nīðing (Old Norse: níðingr/ᚾᛁᚦᛁᚴᛦ)"

Barracks:

Spoiler

Primary Lance:
The Frontline Tank: ON1-K "Jotunn"-------------Pilot "Behemoth" 8/6/8/5

Spoiler

Mad as as a hornet and tough as nails. Wades into the enemy formation before planting her feet and dishing out twice the damage she gets.

Skirmisher 1: TDR-5SE "Sigrdrifa"------------ Pilot: "Glitch" 10/10/9/9

Spoiler

Shares her name with a valkyrie, meaning to "inspire victory". Jump jets and lasers but runs icy cold. Great at legging enemy mechs, attacking the rear arc, and chasing down lights. Hops circles around Jotunn's engagement or breaks ahead to chase down fleeing convoys.

Skirmisher 2: GHR-5H "Burn Notice"/ The Magical 'Never Miss' Machine-------- Pilot "Succubus" 10/9/7/8

Spoiler

Heat efficient with a jaw dropping THIRTEEN medium and small lasers. Accuracy boosting twin tactical computers increase her effective engagement range to "long" with the mediums, even with the loss of one. Armored, fast, and near impossible to hit once she starts flying. This heavy nightmare is a match made in heaven for Sigrdrifa, together they rip apart mechs and convoys alike.

Ranged DPS: HGN-732b "Jormungandr"--------------Pilot "Lindwurm" 10/9/7/10

Spoiler

DFA and LRMS. Takes a while to close in with the rest of the lance, but has the range to take its sweet, sweet time. If necessary, can swap out with Jotunn as tank towards the end of an engagement when it arrives on scene.

huh I didn't realize you can rename your company and mechs

 

You must really like LRMs and lost/miss placed your gauss rifle too.

 

Spoiler: Mechs

I like to keep my enemy at very long range and pick them off one at a time if possible, Highlander can fire at three seperate targets with breaching shot, is quite devastating.

 

How do you like the double PPC Quickdraw? I'm running mine pretty stock with 4 MLs and an LRM, and as its my heaviest mech so far its my front line brawler, but once I get heavier mechs I might swap it to a longer range mobile sniper style like yours.

 

to be honest I haven't fielded it as a sniper yet, my other quickdraw is just like you said, heavy brawler with 4ml a bunch of JJ to close the distance and a melee focused pilot.

 

The Rat Toaster lives!

 

I'll just throw up the company name as i'm still working on getting more mechs.

 

I lava you?

 

I'm a kind volcano god and I love all. I accept sacrifices of booze and food to stay that way.

 

So that's what happened to Hawaii...

 

Seen Diablo as well.

Wasn’t impressed by either bio.

 

Honestly I think I like the random pilots more than any of the KS pilots I've seen. All the ones I've come across just feel like that Mary Sue rogue everyone knows and hates in DnD. Amazing pilot, usually from Solaris or a house unit, betrayal, blah blah blah, knows a thousand ways to kill a man, blah blah blah.

 

I found a lazy cappellan noble named "scrub" whose family thought he wasn't good for anything and exiled him to a rim medical outpost. He barely passed medical school. Outpost was attacked he got in a mech and won the battle. His stats at hiring were 2, 2, 2, 8. Yes he had 8 tactics. I wish one of his would be (ironically saying this) "get good, scrub". He does say something along the lines of "damn. I forgot my beach chair" It was on a sandy biome mission.

 

Most of the Kickstarter pilot bios give me a headache when reading. So many run on sentences and others that lead into making zero sense. If you find warboar I think it was.. you will understand.
