Utterly Mad

While I'm less familiar with the IS names for Clan 'mechs, I'll probably try to stick to using them for simplicities sake.

MADCATS ALL DAY E'RRY DAY

Ullers are honestly one of my favourite light Clan 'mechs, either them or Cougars, I know they're not the best light 'mechs around though
Light IS 'mech is without absolutely any question the Raven, simply because I love the design and the support/intel focus.
I ****ing hate Firestarters and Urbanmechs.

I don't really like very many Medium 'Mechs, none that I could class as a favourite.

Favourite Heavy 'mech is unquestionably the Mad Cat, and any of it's varients, I don't even think I'd have to explain that, it's such a good 'mech.
Loki's are also pretty okay, it's fun but not really that good, it's just an interesting, and somewhat confusing, 'mech.

Favourite Assault is possibly the Fafnir, simply because those heavy gauss rifles will **** your day up.


Also killing a Thor in an Urbanmech shows how fucking stupid they can be sometimes, I hate them so fucking much.

I totally forgot Centurions existed, I ****in love Centurions.

I'm wondering why they never added an option to play football with Fleas , with the pilot still inside while in larger Heavy/Assault mechs, you could totally kick them around with no problem.

I feel a little silly saying how much I like Thors, I was talking about my hatred for Urbanmechs, also for forgetting there was a medium MadCat variant.

The fafnir is expensive as **** but I generally feel like its worth it in most situations that you'd use it for, I see it more as a defensive mech though, a last line defensive mech where you're forced to get close to it.

How dare you defile glorious Clan weapons with your goddamn Urbanmech.

1120. Even if I’m in charge I can’t order the Assault Lance to perform West Side Story dance routines.

I actually didn't know Clan had a varient of the Urbanmech, I haven't been heavily into Battletech for a little while so there's either a lot I didn't learn or I've forgotten.

I think people get confused on how to use Gauss Rifles and use them in brawler mechs because they do a **** ton of damage and because the Heavy Gauss Rifle carries traits of a brawler weapon with it's shotgun like damage dropoff and lends itself incredibly well to a devastating alpha strike at close range(Which I'm remembering is a bad idea with Heavy Gauss Rifles for some reason), although IIRC it performs best at medium range most of the time.

Boating is sort of okay, as long as you keep a backup weapon, for ammo using boats at least, if you use a Catapult as an LRM Boat for example, which is exactly what it's built for (and becomes the most annoying thing in the universe with Streak SRMs) then you usually keep at least a laser on there, because if you're not using streak missiles, I'm just gonna bait you to waste all your ammo and then kill you with the lightest mech I can.

Thors are amazing, I used to confuse them with Lokis until I remembered specifically that Loki in mythos is quite odd, and so are Loki mechs. Loki's can be ****ing horrifying to run across with a real good pilot though, but their lack of armour means they're only dangerous for a few seconds, after that you've either stripped the weapons out or outright killed them.
Back in Mechcommander I used to have a liking for Lokis one playthrough, until I kept having all their weapons stripped out by mechs way lighter than them, and they weren't faring well against anything that could match them.

I disagree, Catapults ARE brawlers if you put enough SRMs in them and Assault mechs ARE magical girls if you put enough tutus on them!

Seriously I'm usually a little scared of Catapults full of SRMs, that alpha strike damage is usually enough to fuck you up, sure you'll probably kill the Catapult after but any friends it had are going to absolutely ruin you, and if they do that before you kill the Catapult then it's free to go pull that shit on some other poor bastard.
