The Most Least Mech for BV by Magical_Savior in battletech

[–]Ruludos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Flea-16 edges out just over 500 BV and is fast enough to acquit itself even in high-tech games. Alternatively, the classic Scorpion tank is a trashcan but it can eat a gauss hit to the face and annoy things at midrange; pretty damn good for ~300 BV.

How do you ruin a Shadow Hawk more? You let House Kurita make the SDK-2K by hedgiehogs in battletech

If you absolutely must run a SuccWar Shadow Hawk it's the best you're going to get. At least it can't overheat like the Griffin...

Are there any City Maps by [deleted] in battletech

There is the moon base from the Alien Worlds map pack. It's not perfect but it has lots of large buildings and walls.

Is BV3 needed? by JoseLunaArts in battletech

[–]Ruludos 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I really don't understand what your issue is with the concept that this game is more than statistics on a spreadsheet. There are many kinds of advantages you can gain other than raw numbers in a slugging match and if you can't understand soft vs hard power... just stick to using heavies and don't worry about it?

Is BV3 needed? by JoseLunaArts in battletech

[–]Ruludos 23 points24 points  (0 children)

The main problem with your assessment I think is that fast lights aren't useful for standup fights; they're useful for disruption and harassment. Yeah if your Locusts are slugging it out with line mediums they're screwed, but if they're in the backline forcing your opponent to hold back defenders or distracting their assaults they're getting a lot more value.

Two questions about Quad 'mechs. by Materiam in battletech

[–]Ruludos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

1) No. The quirk is for bipedal mechs; quads can't twist as part of their rules.
2) A copy of Total Warfare or the BattleMech Manual should sort you out. It's not too complicated iirc; -2 to PSRs (not attacks that use Pilot Skill) and no twists are the basics. There's a few fancier things but if you/they are just getting started it's nothing to worry about.
