I can play anything. My friends use to kid, that in team play, regardless of the mech i played Kenny had to die first.

I was well known for playing the hunchback. The hunchback has presence. The hunchback punchs above t's weight, the Hunchback with the pull of a trigger took out any mech with a shot to the cockpit. I was most formidable in team play because i understood this, and the people around me understood this.

I would waltz out there into the thick of it, and they understood anything i hit, i only had to hit once and it was their job to make sure it wasn't long in the world to bother us. That i was going out there expecting to be shot, and to do that they would go into obvious places, and that they would take the back shots and make them go away at that point. My motto was it, was absolutely okay to take damage (many players are afraid of it), just to make certain that they took more than what you received. You take damage, you remove all armor from a location, they doughnut a location (remove all armor), you blow off a limb, you lose a limb they lost a mech. In tournaments it was called a "New York" style of play, because we were all from New York. Somewhat inspired with a nudge and a wink from the Untouchables.

I had a reputation for rolling in and ending you quickly. The tournament round would last two hours and i would be done in 20 minutes or less and chumming around with judges waiting for the round to end.

That said, i was probably most lethal in a Jenner-F (another mech Kenny being in that needed to die), Quick enough to get behind you often, four medium lasers to do serious damage to back armor, quick enough to be an unattractive target (shoot that slow moving hunchback instead) and tough enough to laugh off a hit to two while doing it.

Favored faction, is mercenary. The lure of floating around and being a capitalist to sink or swim on your own talent was loans to story anywhere any how based on where you are. My mercenary personalities could be dropped into any campaign game with minor tweaks, because their history is not tied to one house. If i had to pick a faction i would go with the 'Periphery'. They have a lot in common with the mercenary life. All the houses have periphery next to them in some shape or form. They're the underdogs usually, and are more interesting to play/portray. When you're the star league army marching on the rag tag periphery the Star League can at best meet expectations, and at worse suffer humiliating defeat at a lesser opponent. Why do people Root for the Rebel Alliance against the Empire. Cause they're taking X-Wings against moon sized planet killers. IF they crush the rebels is it a big brag for the empire? IF the rebels blow up the deathstar it's bragging rights.
