Yeah like I think it was said some time ago that they are big enough to target them with anti-orbi weaponry
distant olive
jep, just making sure its not a "bombardment" order so i dont put somehting wrong on the map
wary sundial
should i clarify that somehow?
distant olive
nah its fine
distant olive
hm?
wary sundial
nah its fine
saw that too late
distant olive
still all good
wary sundial
You guys retreated that far because you were taking bombardment?
distant olive
yeah i am at 1 FS left one more thing breaths at me and im out out
wary sundial
oh damn lol
distant olive
i wanted to get out of range of their arty
wary sundial
small question
arty has 2 actions (normally), bombard to reduce dug in and funnel right? but shouldnt funnel throw the infantry out of their sandbag cover as well?
distant olive
funnel only works if the unit is moving anyway, you can not move a static (dug in) Unit with funnel
So our funnel order work under the presumption that those units will move and not just sit there
wary sundial
Ah gotcha
how many people (TFs and BGs) are inbound to join us now btw? I think I read quite some plebs chime in here to tell us they are on their way

I even had Dispatch contacting not just over voice coms but also over text coms just in either eyesight or hearing was damaged or in case of finger or mouth injuries making communicating over one difficult or impossible, heck, if those failed, she was going to contact Echo since they were the closest unit to get the best understanding of their potential injuries ahead of time.

And then RUSH IT with every infantry we can
upper harbor
What ways would we have to evacuate someone
HVTOL
smoky junco
anyway
I do wish to propose a few actual plans to deal with the large contact
- Gun it down
- Capture it
- Avoid it
First one is self explanatory, super units like this when unsuported are easy prey to concentrated fire
Capturing it depends on what exactly it is and if it’s even feasible to do so
Avoid it is if we can’t bring it down without heavy losses, just ignore and avoid its weapons untill we can engage and kill it
distant olive

We doin mostly alright, you got hit tho

youd become a 1FS unit
if i bail i becomea 3FS with rifle

we cna build you a new mech later

bailing means you dont lose your fella

better than staying in a imobile mech

espically a light mech yeah cant go evasive

even if it dies, youd survive

while not moving

but yeah ill get that order now, sorry to lose you sword it was valiant as hell
upper harbor
3620 looks like a friendly location
sure it's half on fire, but it looks friendly enough
distant olive
Sadly tad boring question, once we submitt the tacmap should we liten the memes?
upper harbor
no big cluster to get hit by potential AoEs
sure
i mean, the only custom icon that is semi-allowed is just Punchy's Raven
and that's cause the fella wasnt even on the map

I mean the rp text boxes

I just pray the secondary level refits are also 3 req
If so I get the sniper refit next time
If shack actually introduces them of course
distant olive
And the meme at the left corner xD

oh thats gone

that would be epic, 4 rec is still a ton and likely what alot of us will get

the only meme meme is gone

Oh Stan needs to get out of danger
smoky junco
Yeah
upper harbor
can stan pull out into high orbit?
modest shale
good question
upper harbor
just evacuate to Atlas
smoky junco
@quasi star YO STAN
sage crane
that would be epic, 4 rec is still a ton and likely what alot of us will get
Oh no, I have a base infantry bought, I have 2 req spare and the 4 will make it 6
smoky junco
YA GOTTA MOVE
modest shale
that has to be enough!
sage crane
Oh no, I have a base infantry bought, I have 2 req spare and the 4 will make it ...
So 3 for SF and then 3 for the next refit
modest shale
thinking spec ops refit with snipers?

go to high orbit, join the other flyer at Atlas
smoky junco
anyway
modest shale
yeah nice

Yea

nono, you dont know where stan is

SUPER SONIC URBIE!
sage crane
It one of the most likely to get added
Could always change, maybe shack is unhappy with stealth and wants it to be tested before adding refits etc
So I’m not super set on it
sage crane
- the possiblity it costs more than 3 req and I’ll cry
smoky junco
battletech mechs are very obviously light mechs
and there the only unit that can actualy have this happen for
as if i started doing that then there would be confusion
wild gale
Could always change, maybe shack is unhappy with stealth and wants it to be test...
Maybe but most of it been worked through already unlike most others
sage crane
Maybe but most of it been worked through already unlike most others
It is also quite simple
smoky junco
minus our stealth mech
sage crane
Pick a target and you get to do x damage at 2-3 range
Don’t remember what the last idea on the range was
wild gale
Just beware it most likely going to be 2fs unit

Oh yeah obviously
That’s half the fun
I do think they’re gonna be very micro intensive

Evacuate our bailed pilot
Your pilot bailed?
smoky junco

I can't lift them right now, blind is still on board
Gonna have to do that next turn, it's too late to change now
static galleon
I'll lift them next turn tho promise
upper harbor
walk to 3621 or something
smoky junco
@twilit sand @quasi star @green lintel @unkempt matrix awaiting your orders
upper harbor
the reason why NSFW bailed is cause their LM is immobile, and an immobile LM is essentially target practice
dont think Cast actually submitted their bail order yet
static galleon
I'd have to check, maybe I can drop blind in the backline, but right now I don't have much internet access which is why my order is so late in the first place

Basically, only Dawn was one used in… Lussan I think it’s called
