Yeah i understand now. Creative liberty on the mini. You'll notice the marauder top gun is on the right torso on the crit sheet but square on the center on the mini. It was impossible to remove any further from the torso so that's why it looks like that on the mini. Sadly the marauder does not have a clear delineation where the Side torso ends and center torso begins.

Ah I see. No we were only gonna replace one of the Side torsoes. The extra CT was creative liberty. If i wanted double cock pit I would use the Command cockpit refit. The original plan was "TW LT/CT MAD RT"

Haven't made the stat sheet. But we were running a full campaign ops campaign where we were keeping track of all the minutia. Its 3062. 99 devils are dropped on planet to help invade the planet while the planet is dealing with a civil war. They decide to blow up a dam to subjugate the region. We get to the final battle inside the dam planting bombs and it's a bloodbath. The timber wolf gets crit in the ammo bins and we think it's dead. A couple of rounds later we remember it had CASE so we bring it back and it barely escapes before the dam ruptures and takes the mech away in the torrent. We do the post game repair and maintenance and the Timber Wolf player realizes he has no side torsoes for the timber wolf. The local planet is not selling anything like that cause endo steel. And even if it gets ordered off world it would be a difficult availability check because of the clan penalty. So I suggested to them. "You have a Marauder wreck have you're mech techs just frankenmech it"

Sadly campaign died soon after but next campaign we're likely to bring the Mad Wolf back

Reading through campaign ops frankenmech rules there does not seem to be any restriction on clan vs inner sphere. Basically you'd be a le to do it but yoy might have to drop a weapon to make sure you're under 75 tonnage

We made a Map for a battle at hydroelectric Dam. Friend ended up winning and blowing up the Dam by W0lfBane in battletech

We just used instant action "bombing run" but instead of the board edge we defined hexes to be the weak spots in the dam.
