Haha damn Clanner. The HQ is on the same page where you downloaded the game, if you want to try it out. Not sure if/how we're gonna do a campaign, but I keep playing with HQ in my free time to see what I can figure out.

On a side note, infantry sucks! unless you use machine guns, you have to kill 30 troops one at a time. The AC/20 at least kills two at a time, but still.

Edit: I wonder if incendiary AC ammo would be better against troops...

 

Two words Steel:

Flamer.

 

But that's only one word. Also, you have to buy ammo and armor in campaign mode. Lame.

 

This ain't mechwarrior 4: mercenaries, dude.

You don't expect ammo and armor to just magically appear out of nowhere when you clap your hands, do you?

Do you?

 

That's what it normally does! *clap* See? Now I've been crushed by tons of armor and bullets. Are you happy?

 

You tried to step on them, didn't you? My first try was a light lance against several platoons and three vehicles. A rifle platoon got a headshot on my locust and killed him. Also, don't let them get into a heavy forest. You'll never hit them if you have the partial cover from trees option on.

 

Ecstatic.

Also, two words Steel:
More flamers.

 

Way ahead of you. I made a Hunchback variant with flamers instead of medium lasers just for infantry fights.

 

Good man.

 

I made a special anti-infantry variant hunchback with no ac (it seems wrong) but it has ten flamers and a small face laser. I don't know if I should feel proud or like the biggest douchebag ever.

 

Seems like an insta overheat especially on the all laser/ppc mechs.

 

Two things:

1) I thought you only replaced the medium lasers with flamers.

2) :grumpy:

 

You were right in that assumption. My first variant still had the ac/20 and face laser, but the medium lasers on the arms were swapped for flamers. My second variant, however, was the one with ten flamers and double heat sinks. I just wanted to see how fast I could take out ten infantry platoons with one mech. Two phases.

 

I love the smell of roasting infantry in the morning, smells like victory.

 

Apparently ramming a 50,000 ton jumpship with a 75 ton fighter doesn't do any damage. I call bullshit.
