Unfashionably late

Hey Magnus!

I have an exam I'm working on studying for on Tuesday night and this weekend (and Monday) has been filled with the sudden need to research and buy a new car since my wife's transmission took a shit. Will you by any chance have any free time on Wednesday eve should I require assistance during character creation, assuming it is not too late? fml

 

you good man. having some internet issues on my end that are preventing me from hosting megamek games (fucking apartments) so you havent missed anything. We do have an event planned for the 29th btw.

 

Okay, I will use this thread as my character scratch pad and get to work Wednesday!

 

Best laid plans are all for naught when you remember you have to work on your stupid fucking class project, and still have to attempt a replacement for a spouse's vehicle

 

:btears:

 

Coat of arms:



Camo:​

​

Lancer: Otäck "CHROME" Kulandinglar XIII



Sponsor: Alliance Industries Ltd.​

Mech: Krom Prime (2,903,157 C-bills)

Dropship (4 slot, 300t capacity): Deliverance​

Primary skills:
Piloting/Mech: Level 3
Gunnery: Level 4
Tactics: Level 4
Leadership: Level 3
Negotiation: Level 3

Secondary Skills:
Small Arms: Level 3
Anti-Mech: Level 4
Gunnery/Battle Armor: Level 4
Piloting/Ground vehicle: Level 3
Piloting/Aerospace+VTOL: Level 3​

Abilities: Pain Resistance, EI Implant​

Bio: For lo unto these many generations, Otäck, son of Otäck, son of Otäck, son of Otäck, son of Otäck, son of Otäck, son of Otäck, son of Otäck, son of Otäck, son of Otäck, son of Otäck Kulandinglar III has heard the song sung of vengeance. Long hath the name of the serpent Magnus been spoke of with ill intent. Long has the seed of the sons of the father dreamed of crushing the line of the Great Traitor. And thus now does it come down to this Son, at this Time, to fulfill this Destiny. For long will Otäck wander, searching world after world, seeking the Spawn. Seeking Eradication. A grand Cleansing fire must sweep over the Inner Sphere to right the wrongs visited upon the hallowed Ancestor and the glorious Skjaldborg of ancient time.

Every advantage must be sought. Every sacrifice must be paid. The pain of the neural interface is insignificant to the potential rewards that await when the glorious task is finished and the Forefathers smile upon his success. The hardships of life as a Lancer are trifles indeed! What a day, what a beautiful day!

Handler: Kassius Konstantine

​

Primary Skills:
Piloting/Aerospace+VTOL: Level 3
Gunnery: Level 3
Strategy: Level 4
Tech: Level 3
Scrounge: Level 3

Secondary Skills:
Small Arms: Level 3
Anti-Mech: Level 3
Administration: Level 4
Piloting/Ground Vehicle: Level 3
Piloting/Mech: Level 3​

Abilities:​

Bio: They say patience is a virtue and some other handlers might think Kassius is a saint for putting up with a Lancer like Chrome. But where they see a wild beast, he sees a destructive force that he can easily direct in whatever direction he pleases. A simple nudge in one direction or another through the gentle mention of Chrome's particular psychosis and off he goes on a tear, leaving money behind in Kassius' bank account. The REAL trick is ensuring Chrome stays alive long enough for it all to be worth the hassle.

It's not known exactly how the bond between the two started up, but Kassius has been the first and only handler for Chrome since he came onto the scene in the outer reaches of the Raven Alliance spouting his tales of 'Spawn' and 'Cleansing'. His extensive contacts within Alliance Industries Ltd. allowed the unknown Chrome to gain access to the highly costly and dangerous Enhanced Imagining implantation. Though the mysteriously large slush of funds that the Lancer had certainly smoothed the path.

Unused XP: 0

 

AHHH, wtf, I can't run MegaMek or MekHQ. I get an error saying 'The registry refers to a nonexistent Java Runtime Environment installation or the runtime is corrupted. The system cannot find the path specified.'

 

If I'm reading things correctly, I could ALMOST build out my mech if I sell off my mechs and sell out to Alliance Industries Ltd? Not sure what they are worth for sell value as I can't open the stupid thing

Couldn't get the iATM 6 cause not enough rep yet. Don't see the Watchdog CEWS on any of the tech lists

 

@Dihm So, you might want to post yer character here: http://www.theskjaldborg.com/index.php?threads/lancer-sign-up-here.11297/

As for the sponsor, you automatically get 100 rep with your sponsor, check the download links(I think) for charts on what you can get for special equipment when it comes to rep

 

I will Trev, I'm just working on him here first I already have a slot reserved over there.

 

I'll probably buy two of them then, so I have a spare to repair, hahahaha.

Replace the iATM with something comparable in my Rep budget and the CEWS with a Probe and ECM for now. HMM.

Ahhh balls, MASC is 150 not 100 like I thought. Will need to drop that too for now. Maybe go Supercharger instead.

 

Okay, rudimentary bios done. Just need a mech now.

 

AIGHT!

Here's ma MEK!

So it looks like I'm eating a healthy chunk of my cash reserve. Based on the Economy chart, I will need to do some 'Lancer Equipment' purchasing as well. So I'll need to do a 'Neural Interfacing' purchase, so that's another 2 mil. I'll also snag a ChemJel Armor upgrade at 200k+350k. That takes me up to 16,309,481 C-bills. I now have 2,903,157 C-bills remaining.

 

Nice work Dihm. Appologies for not being around to help. This week in school is hell. I have two exams next week. Will follow up on this asap.

 

No worries mate, I THINK I have most everything sorted. You did a hell of a lot of leg work getting things smoothed out to this point, it was pretty much a breeze once I had time to sit down and go through things.

Oh, I got MegaMek working. For whatever reason I had to uninstall and reinstall Java.
