OOC Thread #2

[Marlin]

Dis, if you think there would be no comms or ships to Coventry if need be, then you would be mistaken.

If the diplomats would agree to a ceasefire, I think there is no way the fight could not be stopped. Esp. as the rules are rather abstract as well as the timetables.



Its a question of will.

Grae's pm from last night makes a bit more sense now.  I hadn't realized anything out of the normal was going on in the UIW thread let alone that we were involved.  I'll have to read up on what I've missed.

[Daemonknight]

mostly the usual planning what to do next, but I threw out a set of terms to end the CSA-FWL pissing match.

[Iron Mongoose]

Its always about pissing.  One of these days, its going to be a pooing match, and then you're all going down, suckas.

[Daemonknight]

lol

As someone who endured such a match, I can only concur with this judgment.

Eww. And that is coming from someone who spent ten years in the water and sewer industry.

  I voted in the poll for the execution of the open fights. Sorry. One could say I am involved, but def. not directly.  Sheesh. If you want, deduct one vote from the leading option.

They were using the following in the S7 thread, have the Arluna folks been backed by Comstar? Or are IS forces just re-adjusting their forces?

Standard (CS-Flamer) (cannonshop)
Gunnery Skill : Crispino Bonometti [4]
Kills : 0

The weapons-lists on MM 35.20 (at least, the borked version I downloaded) were missing a LOT of stuff-like Fenrir, Gray Death Standard, and other notably "Lyran" designs (also designs pre-dating TRO 3067, anything in the "Heavy" BA list, etc. etc.)  ergo, "Handwave" the son of a bitch, it was a small-scale engagement anyway, and I managed to get 80% Lyran Parts Commonality without going over sixty tonnes or slower than 5/8 (except for the 'Standard' BA-which I really would rather have had GD Standards for- 3 ground speed without having to tell it 'jump' every single frigging time...)

as to why I didn't just go ALL-Rotties? a two-squad scout element is plenty for a fight on that scale.  I lost one squad of Rotties because I was stupid and stopped them where they could have the building dropped on them.  I don't LIKE the Rottweiler armor, however they did serve well in the job they were there for-to chew up enemy infantry and keep them from being a useful asset for the enemy (it only took a single squad for that-the first one died in the structure almost  a full map before they were of any use...)

Not a flaw in the version, it's a problem with extracting it to the desktop.

Will the FGC archives from CBT ever get linked to this board?

[Marlin]

I think they are. There is just no good exclusive spot for it.

I was bringing it up, not because of the type of armor, the armor is Inner Sphere Standard, the only difference is the people per unit. The question is, are all of the Spheroids going to start using 6 man squads now because it outnumbers the clans?

Y'know, man, that didn't even OCCUR to me.  (the old ruling was that Comstar, like everyone else, uses 4 man BA squads-it's only post TW that they were allowed six.)
