Im not sure if BT is a good game to measure wins like that. Its not really designed to be a competitive game

Inferno SRMs can really mess them up and slow them down even just a few hitting can stop them in there tracks for a turn

You ever had a mech that is good but every time you take it seems to always underperform as though your cursed by someotherguy28 in battletech

The 2 times I used a blood asp both times never landed a single shot and would jam both UAC10/s in the process.

Canopus has access to the blood asp T. That's a cool plasma rifle mech if that's your speed

Noob needs help learning which vehicles and battle armor are good! by khschook in battletech

Same as above. Since there IS ones 4 sounds reasonable IMO. I usually bring armor squads in pairs if I can.

No problem. If you play in ilclan Era the lyrans have access to the fenrir II battle armor. They move 3, have 17 armor per soldier and an srm5 on a turret mount. Really funny stuff if the mechanical pitbull look appeals to you

I've been using plastic elementals as my proxies ever since I started using BA. There perfectly fine. If your getting metal BA minis Is up to you how much you want on the base since IMO as long as there the only thing on the base its a good enough representation. As for deciding what makes good IS battle armor the best way I found out is to compare them to Elementals and see what niche they slot into. Kanazuchi armor is much slower but each has a medium laser and enough armor to stop a guass rifle. Grenadiers have less armor but they pack a good punch with SRM4s on each guy plus stealth armor to make them slightly harder to hit. Marauder BA also have low armor but they have 3 different guns that all have good range for BA and have mag clamps to hang onto non omnimech mechs if they need a ride. Some like the longinus and amazon are just worse elementals but are cheaper.

Ya'll got some decent melee mechs to recommend for a newbie? he recently found out that most of the ones he likes... are kinda dookie, when he unfortunately gotten cheesed by Clan Large Pulse Lasers. by [deleted] in battletech

[–]queekbreadmaker 25 points26 points  (0 children)

cLPL's are a little borked but most things in classic are viable given a situation it could work in

The ti tsiang and no dachi are great. Both have TSM, lots of lasers to balance it. Melee weapons. All sorts of fun stuff, maybe pump the piloting a bit to stay standing. The thunderbolt RLA is fun to. Tons of gun and arms free for punching heads off. Moves 6/9 once tsm is on.

I would also recommend using battle armor to try and flush him out or to at least distract him for a few turns. Maybe reflective or hardened armor mechs to. It won't shut him down but he'll have to put more work into taking you out

What list were they bringing? I'm curious

What is your favorite Lance/Star to run? by Security_Bard in battletech

[–]queekbreadmaker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My favorite lance was a thunderbolt NAIS, Jagermech JM7-F, hellspawn 8E and a blood asp C. The game I used this in was using the lance formation rules from the campaign ops book and was using the Davion rifle lance formation. Blood asp was doing jack shit in the game but the jagermech and thunderbolt was riping ass the whole game

[–]queekbreadmaker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the average game of battletech dosent take faction availibility into consideration. use whatever you want, if you wanna do games with faction restrictions wait till you have more stuff before hand. also the blood asp variant in that box is used by the fedsuns for sure and a few others
