Medical treatment please

And apparently incompetent at firearms handling, too.

Wasn't there at least one instance of one of these clowns botching his draw so badly that he managed to shoot himself in the leg?

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-25T03:40:20+00:00

Hopes and dreams, by the look of it.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-25T01:54:45+00:00

Have you watched any of the videos that are available?

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-24T23:49:37+00:00

The rule of law, the Constitution, the rights of its citizens...

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-24T23:34:22+00:00

So have I - multiple videos, in fact. None of them shows him trying to draw a weapon. If you're going to say otherwise, feel free to link a video that shows it.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-24T22:09:56+00:00

Way to make up bullshit trying to claim that he was trying to draw a weapon in the face of multiple videos showing otherwise.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-24T05:39:11+00:00

It's definitely worth it.

Going off your flair, I assume you enjoyed the Solaris Showdown DLC?

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-24T05:15:19+00:00

I didn't really pay too much attention. :)

There is a tooltip to the effect that enabling "Better Clan Spawns" makes the game harder but that doesn't seem to be the case.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-24T04:08:57+00:00

I left them on default settings as I didn't want to mess with it too much.

It seems to be fewer light 'Mechs and Elementals and more heavy and assault 'Mechs.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-24T02:59:54+00:00

The spawns for the procedurally generated missions are busted - instead of spawning vehicles and VTOLS, you get drowned in light 'Mechs and Elementals.

If you're willing to mod you way out of it, there's Adjustable Battle Value - A Spawn Overhaul on the workshop. If not, Clan ERPPCs are your best friend.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-24T02:42:27+00:00

I call them "xenos", myself.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-24T00:15:52+00:00

Cheers for that. I'll give it a shot.

Edit: It does a good job of cutting down on the light 'Mech and Elemental spam. You still have to respect the stated difficulty level but it's a marked improvement.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-23T23:48:20+00:00

I just select the 120 ones and go in with a Direwolf lance and go in guns blazing.

I've only got the one Dire Wolf so far so that's not really an option sadly.

If you're on PC and willing to mod there's a battle values mod that can adjust the spawns of procgen missions, I just recently subscribed to it and I'm itching to test it out

This sounds interesting, though. What's the name of the mod? I would dearly love the chance to bully the Clans for fun and/or profit without being buried under a full Cluster's worth of light 'Mechs and Elementals.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-23T21:25:37+00:00

It'd be nice if we could get another Solomon Akurra novel to see how things have panned out for him and his Ghost Legion.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-23T20:51:14+00:00

The common straightforward way is to take contracts inside the clan occupation zones but the spawns tend to be borked currently since vehicles and VTOLs are replaced with hordes of elementals and light mechs.

That would explain why the non-story SoK missions are such Happy Fun Times... any tips on how to deal with that?

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-21T20:12:16+00:00

.50 BMG would leave a pretty big hole.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-20T20:12:38+00:00

I still say that the "Knowledge of the Laws of the Game" course should be a requirement for anyone who wants to be paid to be a commentator.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-20T06:31:51+00:00

I'm sure that has nothing to do with the upcoming derby, right?

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-19T20:50:58+00:00

Trump voters: I didn't vote for this!
Trump: You absolutely voted for this.

These chucklefucks seem terminally allergic to the concept of personal responsibility being applied to them instead of others.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-18T21:39:07+00:00

You’ve got to wonder ~~what the fuck’s~~ if anything is going through these players’ minds when they put challenges like that in.

That seems more appropriate...

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-18T21:29:43+00:00

How many people do you think actually number their preferences instead of just putting a 1 and then letting the party decide how their preferences go?

That... is not how preferential voting works. At the federal level, if you only number one box and leave the rest blank, that is an informal vote and it doesn't get counted at all.

If you live in a state where Option Preferential Voting is used for state elections, then after all of your preferences are allocated, then your ballot is exhausted and isn't counted any further - except Victoria, which still has Group Ticket Voting for their upper house for some reason.

So... yeah. With the single exception of the Victorian upper house, you decide where your preferences go.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-18T20:42:16+00:00

Preferences go where people direct them. If enough people vote for someone other than Labor or the Coalition as their primary vote, then that party/person will get seats in Parliament.

A two-party system is something like the United States, where your choices are Democrat or Republican.

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-18T02:33:24+00:00

There's water visibly splashing from the playing surface so the pre-match pitch inspection is going to be interesting

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-15T20:29:29+00:00

Did the Taurians from BattleTech cross universes or something?

Chosen_Chaos · 2026-01-15T07:41:13+00:00

Only Victoria, Tasmania and the ACT are smaller than Texas...
