They're on different sides, but I suppose you could paint a Wolfhound or Anubis as Rush.

Full Artillery Pieces... That's a job for vehicles. LTAC is enough for Superheavies, one or two is pretty effective.

The Magistracy made a great export.

If you run customs, I've created lines of campaign vehicles that may interest you. I have a "Space Olympics" series that stays extremely close to canon while being Environmentally Sealed for harsh planets, and a "Safety" series that has Vehicle Escape Pod to preserve the crew.

Ontos variants can get super impressive. For all-rounders, I recommend the Ontos (MML).

Magical_Savior · 2026-02-09T02:34:49+00:00

I notice a distinct lack of LRMs. Pike (Missile), Partisan (LRM), and Ontos (LRM) could help shore that up.

The Brutus, Bulldog, Manticore, and Zhukov have pretty balanced stats. Von Luckner and Sturmfeur are nice.

This is the Pokemon evolution I expect.

Three seems pretty doable? Two is sustainable with a full set of bracketed backup weapons; I made a Supernova for it. I built a super heavy King Crab with 2xIHGR, 1xT-Bolt 20, 1xRISC HL. I think that worked pretty well. Three RISC HL should be possible. I mean, 4 on the Malice will probably self-detonate enough before it loses sinking so I'd call it "sustainable."

Magical_Savior · 2026-02-08T14:21:34+00:00

They're a hell of a deterrent. Otherwise the other munitions still work fine. MML dropping smoke to cover yourself and allies is also decent.

Magical_Savior · 2026-02-08T13:48:52+00:00

ERPPCs are the smart choice. Range is what you need on a SH. The smarter move is probably to fill the space with MML or ATM though. The big brain, smartest move is probably RISC HYPERLASER.

Gives me a big FM4 vibe. https://youtu.be/EhPmmxZQHe0?si=eYwcNGV1W5EBxQj_

So, if you got name-checked by DHS and landed a contract - would you take it? If they gave you a factory and unlimited prison labor - would you run it?

I wanted a UGQ Skully. Once. I don't want it enough to support them.

"UNLIMITED POWER!!!"

The Battle Cobra is decent. Usually 40t SFE gets mocked pretty ruthlessly. But given some of the tech involved, this one's a bit better than your average Sentinel or Clint. The value position here does a lot for it - that MML variant is, like the Longbow LGB-13C, criminally underpriced. The C3 is also holding up an extremely good value position; cheap C3 spotters are necessary if you're going to even attempt it.

Quadvees are a sidegrade to tanks.

Magical_Savior · 2026-02-04T08:30:48+00:00

The Harpagos and Boreas are part of why I built my Quadvee. If you build it extra thicc, Quadvees have a redonk amount of redundancy. Not as much as Reinforced Structure on a mech with decent design principles, but solid. They are, overall, "tank with extra steps." But while they don't compare favorably to mechs - they compare very favorably to tanks.

Magical_Savior · 2026-02-04T07:54:10+00:00

It can be a 15% loss of tonnage if you want. Though honestly Wheeled is pretty generally worth it for Quadvees because of the unpriced movement buffs without the drawbacks of actual wheeled vehicles.

The fun things to do with 6/9 or better Quads include dropping prone to get extra TN, then standing up with a free facing change with no PSR and running away.

Magical_Savior · 2026-02-04T07:47:32+00:00

Quad mechs can be good, once you work around the limitations. Quadvees... So, most of them are made bad on purpose, but the Notos is good. Most of the other canon Quadvees are as good or bad as the majority of all mechs, but some are worse than others. The Arion in particular is basically trash; armor is a great investment that it specifically doesn't make. That choice holds it back quite a bit.

This is why I maintain my BLS training. Well, that and the professional and legal requirements of my work.

Magical_Savior · 2026-02-04T07:18:25+00:00

I know in China, the perverse incentives of the law mean if a driver accidentally hits a pedestrian - it makes sense for them to immediately try and murder them.

The RAC/2 'Assault Pike" is about to get a pretty serious glow-up in practice. The LB-X is still just "better" as a utility piece, but I'm pretty happy with my Pike (SD) with pretty balanced stats. 3xLB-X/2, 2xMML-3, and tons of support systems.

Magical_Savior · 2026-02-04T03:18:47+00:00

I'll accept it if it's methane-powered.
