    You know, for the religious Blakists, he is the second coming of Blake.

    No, those are capital anti-ship missiles, only barracudas waive the to-hit penalty agianst fighters.

    I think you have swapped white sharks with barracuda missiles

    There is a developer note in the rules for high speed engagements that explicitly states that the space combat rules are unrealistic in order to make the game more fun.

    I think it would be best to pick a few characters in leadership with different stances on scorched Earth, some being hardliners from the start, others accelerate, some are slow to it, and a few opposed. The overal level of acceleration should be based on those characters gaining fame or...

    The interesting thing about the particular type of lunacy that Vicky shows the inner sphere is that it is so completely different from the normal types of space madness that ComStars usual methods won't work.

    Nobody has surface to orbit weaposn anymore, and if an ASF does not want to join a fight, it is very hard to keep it from zooming off into the distance. Though that sort of realization might only come to people with more institutional experience.

    The one thing that is really missing from the operation is more aggressive scouting. I'd expect a wing of ASF being sent on high altatude high speed flybys to map everything out.

    Does he not realize that he has between two and three regimental combat teams with Royal gear assaulting his planet? They may not be SLDF quality, but three Colossi means over 200 combat vehicles. Even if it is just 200 LRM carriers that is enough to ruin his day, but good chances are that there...

    Things are beginning to move. I wonder how the Clans will react to conspiracy theories about the ISDF being SLDF returned. They would probably get a good laugh out of that. Well, at least the ones who haven't had their sense of humor surgically removed.

    This entire story ark is true to life. Military themed films often ask the US military for help, and sometimes hire museum ships for use as sets.

    Yeah, and those blueprints would be very plural for a jumpship. Even for a common house you can have 6-7 different blueprints, one for the overall layout, another for the frame, another for electrical, another for the plumbing. A jump ship has far more systems complicate enough to need their own...

    It wouldn't contain the refits patches and modifications that have allowed the jump-ships to last centuries.

    Well if you are going for cost effective mechs, there is always the urbanmech. Swapping out the AC/10 for an LRM-20 and two extra tons of ammo would along with her senors would be quite the nasty surprise, though it might be better to go with an LRM-15 and several medium and small lasers.

    This is your chance to ask for the dropship.

    And this is why Nighthawks were the terror of the great houses during the tail end of the Star League. Far more hardened targets have fallen to them. Whenever the great houses decided to try and make their own powered armor, the Star League would send in a platoon of Nighthawks to shut down the...

    Transplanting helm into your landhold? I like that idea. No one else has even considered something like that.

    That was a proper heist, in and out without a single alarm.

    Looking at the conversation elsewhere, getting into contact with the MRB and asking for help with the company store would be a smart decision. However, it is also something an utterly green mercenary unit may not know to do.
