He wants the 'free' endo/ferro.

One problem though...

Ferro and Endo both cost 6 more crits each.

Valk only has 5 free. You just don't have enough space considering the Ferro and Endo is still in beta production and isn't refined yet.

Already did this song and dance when I looked at the 3050 mechs ;)

He would get to pick between the two options either Ferro or Endo, to use.

Also remember...

No XL engines.

Well they exist, just with a lot more crits left/right torso (like 6)

engine repairs will be murder if you lose any torso.

i more meant the fact that it would be far too expensive to buy on our paltry salary.

All XL engines were obnoxiously expensive.

ohhhh yeah okay, if they take up more crits like that, I think I'll just leave it be, and take the 3025 version, It still gets the job done, but I will have to go through some revision of the character :)

but with that in mind... I think I will just run a regular valkyrie, that engine isn't an XL from what the page states, or am i wrong?

on a side note: why are hoff sinks more expensive and harder to ge than regular double sinks?, aren't hoffs for all intents and purposes a worse version?

Hoff sinks are only one critical and can swap with a heat sink any where on the crit table.

Ds/he are three crits and limited to on in rt/Lt and one in ra/LA.

So you can't have more than four ever.

You changed it from six down to four?

I thought you could have one in each torso and two in each arm.

Right two in each arm.

If all the mains are taken and people can't touch the perma's I figure I might as well sell myself...

Yes.

Solid Slug from Solaris is here!

Well known in the lower gladiatorial tiers he worked his way up from ad-hoc industrial mechs made combat ready.  Eventually he scored big and took a Hatchetman as salvage.

Stripping out the big old AC/10 he slapped 3 more tons of armour on her frame, CASE in the torso and jammed in an AC/6 for some range and 5 Machine-guns for when the going got too hot (two facing the rear even).

Peacemaker II is one HOT mama.

Will work for food...

Still sick as a dog, but i read this, and i felt i HAD to share:

http://rats-funnybone.com/veet...unniest-review-ever/

note to self... never use!

also, this is in NO WAY for the faint of heart

Funny.

So are the other reviews if you pop on over to Amazon and read them as well.

I did, that one just seemed to be the best one.

frankly,sicne i am already coughing up my lungs, i felt it would bea  terrible idea to keep reading after the 3 first ones.

didn't wanna add to the pain.

Probably a good plan.

Only reason I didn't hack up my own lungs was I'ev been doing so much data entry on spreadsheet sthat it's all 1's and 0's to my eyes right now.

alright, with ES/FF in mind i think i'll jsut go for a bunch cheaper, and much more usefull:


Morgan will be:
G: 3 - 100
P: 3 - 100
M: 2 - 50
-----------
2 - Edge  (75)
2 - Leadership (75)
2 - Noble (75)
0 - Left open for now, for whatever i want later on.

                                 will need at least 2 successfull rolls at tn 7+ (11-4)
                                (since i'm assumed a successfull tn8+ roll)
this leaves some openings, which i would  look into how to handle, once i know wether the EES is successfull or not, and how many options I am left with after that.




Are there any other rolls I'll need to get out there?

You're presumed one successful roll for ARMOR and AMMO at tn8+

(NOT internals)


You also can not roll for anything more than once Morgan, so you wont be able to get your Valk into Endo steel immediately.

Did you want to keep the Ammo from the LRM installed?

Presume ML will be (1) RA, (2) LA unless you tell me different.


You're allowed (3) Availability rolls, you may not roll for anything more than once.  You do not have to roll for your mech, you do not have to roll for standard tech equipment you intend to install on your mech.

You do have to roll for advance tech you want to install, you do have to roll for anything extra to keep in inventory, you do have to roll for any conventional vehicles you want to command.

ah right... mind is still sorta muddled by painkillers and sickness and arrrrgh.

Removing LRM ammo too, don't want the LRM at all.

I'll go for a double HS, an ES roll, and a karnov

that should be good for now,

14:52, Today: Morgan Benucchi rolled 9 using 2d6 with rolls of 6,3. ES got +1 from Edge, Karnov tn 5+.
14:51, Today: Morgan Benucchi rolled 6 using 2d6 with rolls of 5,1. 0.5t Endo steel tn 7+.
14:51, Today: Morgan Benucchi rolled 8 using 2d6 with rolls of 3,5. Double HS, tn 5+.

Only unit commanders can roll for Transports.

*pokes*

Dont forget to cough up 400k cb for those promotions buck~o

good point, remove the heirloom, and i'll run with that... i think that was lost  in "translation" from another thing i had written up, but decided against

Really?

YOure giving up Heirloom?  +1 to initiatives for a very very low price?

I'd give up other things personally but that's pretty cheap.

the only other thing i can justify giving up, all in mind, is the double heat sink, for another regular heat sink.

Gotta have a transport for peoples bling (not to mention, my 1t of armor which i totally forgot to add) :)

and I want an air transport for that stuff, need something that can airlift supplies in and out.

not dropping the flamer, since you seem to looove that infantry, and I am sick and tired of having hostiles I can't reasonably shoot on the map.

and I don't  intent to stay in the valkyrie, just need to earn about 2 million credits before it's worthwhile to invest in a heavier mech :P

Just remember you can't get classic transports, only full commanders.  It's their job to make sure that the unit has adequate additional transportation/cargo assets not you anymore :)

You could try and roll for an APC or something that has an infantry bay and then use it to transport things but they are only good for 1 ton and they would be combat units mainly.

I've actually started adding infantry, i just have to figure out a cost for them, they're probably going to be dirt poor.  What's the best thing to use against infantry?  more (better armed) infantry :D

Right heirloom gone.
