2022 Holiday Shopping
This message was last edited by the GM at 20:53, Thu 22 Dec 2022.

Auction house is now closed.

Purchased made are mostly endorsed (unless there is a problem with math somewhere.)

As a new years bonus, everyone will have the engineers in the motorpool drive off with a flatbed truck for their unit to use.

Special Holiday Auction.

Each 'official' participating Unit has 24 unit points to spend on this auction.  {Checked in with Light roleplaying thread}
Each 'unofficial' participating unit has 12 unit points to spend on this auction.  {Have not checked in with Light roleplaying thread, or shown late for auction}

Republic Recruit/Reinforcements
While on planet these units will act as members of your unit.  When the contract ends, and it comes time to part company a contract bonus will be allocated to reflect your performance on this contract (ie.  Keep them alive if you want this bonus).

Remember that your unit size is limited to a Company (12 Units), which will limit how many you can Recruits you can select.


Unit Commanders also have the option to invest these point in there own units.

Refit and Modification
You may apply them to existing mechs to convert the mech from one available variant to another.  (ie.  Spend a few extra points to convert a Phoenix Hawk-1 to a Phoenix Hawk-1K would cost you. 4 points {1 for the cost of conversion, and 3 for the difference in value})

Pilot Experience
Unit Commanders may apply them to existing pilots to increase their effectiveness.  (cost to be announced.)

There was zero intel on the mechwarrior, so all things being equal, selection was going to have to be made on the rides they piloted.

The Pussy Cats were a quick unit.

Having a recruit that could keep up and absorb the attention that comes from a mission was a good thing.  The fact that it was reknown for it's command functions only made the mech more attractive.

A fingernail glossed in purple polish taps on the  Phoenix Hawk as her first round draft pick.  The Liason Officer took notice of the selection and acknowledged the selection.

Candice looking over the available options was originally going to take the WhitWorth, but changes her mind at the last minute to the LRM carrier.

Thaddeus nodded to himself mostly as he perused the selections. After a moment, he turned in the slip with the designation Commando-2D.

Well given my make up, i think that the ferret is a good choice, help protect that LRM carrier and my archer while closing.

"We need a suitable scout vee to keep up with us and add some indirect firepower. The Striker will do nicely."

It was a good opportunity...

Penny taps on the Dragon, picking up the mech would make it the largest mech in her unit.  It was large... but quick for it's size, and reputed for being a solid block of armor.  The perfect damage magnet.

Sure... we weren't suppose to use them as Meat Shields, but sometimes Green mechwarriors wander into places they shouldn't and that should help keep them alive.

She look at Candice's pick and nods.  It was quick and would help cover her nimble forward observer needs.  There were worse things to draft.

"The Panther will make a good firepower and anchor addition to this outfit."

Penny picks out the warrior VTOL.  The Pussy Cats were overdue selecting some decent conventional support.

"I like these... they're fast and annoying."

As it looks like i'm picking up vehicles, might as well bring the pain.  Demolisher it is


  Also lucky for you new recruits, we have training... daily...mandatory... until you can hit the broad side of a barn.




also means 1 points spent on both vehicles to upgrade them to 5 base at least.

Pickins were getting thin.

Of the bugs, the Locust looked the best.  It would as a fair wingman for Savannah who could tech them the finer points of piloting the scout mech.

Apparently we are looking at the same thing, as Candice looks at the Locust also.

The Hunter will be my choice for now.
