Does anyone have recommendations for Gorshkov? It seems like it could go a lot of directions: limited system focus, grapplers, lock on...

Also having this miss is... Honestly just feels bad

many such case luci

I feel like for the cost of a stress, it’s gotta be “the next attack you hit this turn”

#

So I made an LCP for the Laurel because I wanted it on compcon (took me 3 hours on my gfs pc while she napped lmao). Just wondering what the rules are before I post it to itch.

It includes RKF as a standalone manufacturer and the RKF Laurel.

I'd like to post it to Itch with appropriate credits on the itch page and on the manifest

spring creek
#

Id also like a ruling on posting lcps of unfinished mechs in the chat - Im fine if the answer is “Id rather you didn’t”

covert surge
#

Share lcp for personal use, here is fine, but id rather it doesn’t go up on itch

Does Gorshkov's Adaptive Vision Denial still give it Hidden if it's Engaged? I assume yes, because it's not the Hide Action and it doesn't say it cares about that, but figured I'd ask to make sure.

#

"can HIDE" is different from "you become HIDDEN", is the distinction

#

in core i think the only thing that makes something HIDDEN without the HIDE action is the npc prowl feature? which is "move <speed> spaces then become hidden", so i don't think this would ever have come up before in core

Oh hell that's a minotaur variant?!

Dear god.

real striker minotaur moment

#

license dont have weapon? give it its own

#

Honestly it works good with all the systems that slow and stun on the minotaur so I think that's perfect. Kinda like the polar opposite of the Calendula. It's big it's obvious but God it's gonna bludgeon you.

Oh I just had a horrifying thought

Or is it just a mortar round with a shortened barrel to act as a shotgun with a slug?? XD

#

found out how funny heruka is, any ll6 builds is its WAY too funny to pass up

spiral warren
#

are there any plans for another reworks on the horizon for licenses like Dragontail or Dagon?

covert surge
#

why?

spiral warren
#

mainly pulling names out of a bag, but I'm not a fan of Dagon's really complex wording or their core active

#

while yes, it's a core active, I think 50 sensors is ridiculous given correct setup

#

I keep forgetting to post, but here's the current playtest version of the dullahan in lcp form. I made this lcp, not blue or terk, and its unofficial and subject to change by them.

📎 Dullahan.lcp
spiral warren
#

?

spring creek
spiral warren
#

terk released new lcp?

spring creek
#

nope

#

I made it from playtest material

#

Im going to edit that to make it clear

spiral warren
#

oh wow

#

i didn't know this was in the works

#

fascinating

spring creek
#

theres a bunch of mechs that terk has made that are in playtest/draft stages, I just talked my dm into letting me play one so I made the lcp

covert surge
#

have you played it?

spring creek
#

I dont know what you mean by in the works, but I just want to make it triple clear that I'm not directly affiliated with this

#

not yet 😦

covert surge
#

keep me posted when you do, its my weirdest shit by far

spring creek
#

I'm sure you know since you wrote the damn thing, but I'm seeing two viable playstyles - the first is keeping the croaker as a loader and spam a loading weapon every turn. The second is having the croaker be a grunt killer and the mech be a heavy gunner/crack shot user

#

anything else is asking for a player death lmao

covert surge
#

theres also using the croaker to shove enemies into the headhunter line and getting them out of cover

spring creek
#

oh shit I didnt see that line

#

that shove pilot gear, I was wondering what that was good for

covert surge
#

also just throwing hands with the Witch

#

you also should be durable enough to not be instantly deleted if you stick to cover as the pilot and use Headhunter to cut off lines of flanking to you dude

#

what happened to the "overshield clear means boom" trait

spring creek
covert surge
#

I removed it. I mean what other answer is there?

Pivoted to sth else entirely as a frame

vale horizon
#

hell yeah

hardy citrus
#

my kids i work with like stomping them cause they arent supposed to be where im from

#

youre supposed to report them where im from if you spot them

#

Out of curiosity terk, is there a running folder or document that - unlike your "official" mechs, includes all your experimental or test mechs youve off the cuff shared or dont know if youre gonna work on more?

#

sometimes hunting them in the thread can get a bit hard

#

itd be a lot easier if you could also search forums like they were a channel
but also its totally fine if not - like i know how much work that would be- so im only cuirous if it already existed

covert surge
#

All of my docs both tmnt and random shit i cooked in the middle of the night are in a big jumbled folder lol

#

Hey terk, so we got some feedback on Conquerer's path on Subatai. Due to the rule of "characters wholly in the area are intangible", it becomes too easy to wall out a larger mech

#

Heres our current situation

#

The white is a conquerer's path, and the size 2 Manifold Destiny literally can not be "wholly in the area" to be able to attack us

#

We've had a lot of situations where Conquerer's path makes someone fully invincible to ranged enemies and it becomes very easy to wall inside of the area

#

We also used it here to break grapple and adjacency on Bright Horizon (who was mega-dead to rights)

#

It does a bit too much on just a quick action and is very powerful

#

NVM we fixed lancer:

#

ratato

cosmic steppe
#

I thinnk this is the worsdt thing we've ever done to our DM

spring creek
#

okay so now in this instance, manifold destiny is not intangible despite being in the zone and next to several characters

image.png
#

the size of the zone is also slighty odd and frustrating

#

I'd recommend making it timed, or change the intangible thing, just make it the portable hole it was intended to be

#

right now its seeing use as a shield system to break up melee fights more than anything else

#

you could also change it so the "wholly within the zone thing" is gone

covert surge
#

This is great feedback 👍

#

I did not think of the big guy being body blocked scenario somehow

#

any other feedback on the subutai stuffs?

spring creek
#

Fantastic! Solved all my criticisms! I’d actually say this is on par with accelerate and you could remove limited

covert surge
#

Id rather keep limited, although I can extend it to be even longer

#

spring creek
#

That also works, especially if its originating from the mech

#

i had one question about the heruka

#

fist of the god moon seems a little overpowered with brawler 2, b/c that lets it w/ a full tech do 4d6+4 functionally smart damage per turn

#

like makes sense with system shock but brawler 2 seems a little strong with this

#

Terk's eternal curse of having cool ideas and needing to make them, truly

covert surge
#

The impetus to draw it came from ssc revealing the hip gun to me in a dream tbh and it just slot into the license well

It really seems like you've been on an SSC kick lately

#

Friendship ended with Harrison armory

"A butterfly? In the mech Factory? How queer!"

"Guess we making butterflies now"

Finally figured out a good way to visualize them i guess

If you would notice both of the recent ssc frame art aren’t very curvy :p

Finally, a branch of SSC that doesn't have a thing for feet /j

covert surge
#

I don’t have to make the ssc mechs curvy lookin

IMG_1628.png
#

Return to my favorite subject, drawing sharp geometric shaped mechs. Glory to Harrison Armory

#

I got stuck thinking SSC mech gotta look like the Eldar/Evangelion/Big Robot Girl and just wasnt able to make good designs from that

#

But now I have freed my mind and understood the cosmic truth that ssc too can be boxes 🙃

hardy citrus
#

They can boxy they just gotta feel... Idk, lightweight?

#

Which i think you succeed at

covert surge
#

Oh my fucking god how did i not realize its the CMYK colors. I just grabbed three colors that looked nice and prismatic and had a nagging feeling that this color combination was from somewhere but couldn’t put my finger on it.

The mech itself is even the yellow ish off white color of printer

i feel like nucav is the thing to drop but bonus damage from lifeline and good heat management is tasty

#

probably using my overwatch on an ally with lifeline anyway so losing vanguard 3 hurts a bit less

covert surge
#

Why are we going so deep in Tukhachevsky lol

minor widget
#

needed 3 HA

#

2 for SHS, third could be anything

#

considered isk 1 for stub cannon but decided against it

#

and took SHS because i was looking for a 2 SP system that offered some sort of support/disruption

#

alternative would maybe be napoleon and fill the scene with stasis barriers to enforce a choke around the core power wall or something

covert surge
#

Tokugawa for exbat

#

Or sunzi if you want support and control option

minor widget
#

i considered toku but they don't boost ranged weapon threat and i am an extbat disliker in general, sunzi is a good pick though

covert surge
#

Being able to plonk out shield at longer range is always good

#

You can also do some very funny thing with ion charge + exbatt + ssc range increase core

minor widget
#

this is true but if i want to shield at range 10 i have charged barrier

#

yeah i was considering ion on the main aux but the combo of short range + d3 damage + 2 SP turned me away

covert surge
#

Making your ion charger range 11 and you can pull two things the whole 9 yard every time it fire

#

And overwatch is extremely hilarious because the second shot of the overwatch can be aimed at anything

minor widget
#

mhm

covert surge
#

You enter my threat, i overwatch you + this other guy 10 spaces away

#

Good bye, have a great time

minor widget
#

it's a neat effect but takes a bit too much investment imo, at least on this iteration

covert surge
#

A lot of this mech’s item effect is centered around being able to scale your utility by scaling your gun

#

So it doesn’t quite build like a standard support where it jam support system into itself

#

Longer range on your gun is longer range on your pull, more damage convert into more shield, accuracy converts into self shield converts into a “battery” to use your self damage system, weapon knockback usable on allies without damaging them so its a mobility tool, etc

#

Its a funky support license/mech that kits out itself more akin to a striker, at least that’s the design intention

minor widget
#

it's funky in a very neat way yeah

#

my idea behind putting Engineer on it was that the real mounts could go to utility weapons while still retaining good damage in a pinch + already planned to invest in Limited charges. i really like ion charger conceptually but feels like it's very steeply costed, or balanced assuming you're going all in (e.g. extbat + neurolink) and a bit underwhelming otherwise

#

like i guess i could drop any systems outside the license and go lantern 3/HA whatever 3, IAF + neurolink and put charger + sub-arc on the main aux

covert surge
#

Someone out there (probably a manticore) is already planning an all engineering all Sub-Arc build I can feel it

minor widget
#

if it had an extra flex i might be inclined to build sub arc gunslinger

#

also i think inverted light spear should ignore LoS so you can use that 20 AP energy to tunnel a hole through solid walls

covert surge
#

🤔

minor widget
#

idk i think it adds an interesting angle to it beyond just blowing up whatever chest-high wall your target is hiding behind

#

like the RAI on seismic ripper

covert surge
#

Might step too much on seismic ripper shoe

#

Since seis is a line 10 full action

minor widget
#

it's 1/scene and you pay self damage i think it's fine pain

covert surge
#

Ill rotate it in my mind eye

minor widget
#

that's all i can ask for

#

anyway you knocked it out of the park on the art, love this funky little guy who is definitely a normal support and not about to blast you with some sort of Beam

#

On the Lantern, may want to make flash a "may do this". Otherwise if no enemies are within range 3 you'll have to blind your ally

I'm now imagining a zhukov unceremoniously dumping it after throwing it once

Tartakovsky casually making the coolest thing ever, every episode

spring creek
#

I would also reccomend making the Ontologic Incisor on the Zhukov either loading or limited 1. As is its possible to otk an ultra with an overcharge.

#

probably loading to emphasize that its maybe a 1-combat weapon and encourage discarding it after use

#

also means that an everest cant pick it up and blow up moons

covert surge
#

the everest can already single handedly clear sitrep with the Daisy 🙃

#

let the single target bois have his cake

spring creek
#

Is it meant to be superheavy? I'm adding it to my campaign to test, but in its current state I can't see how my pcs dont bend the sitreps over their knees with it.

covert surge
#

nope

#

its has always meant to be Daisy Cutter equivalence

spring creek
#

So thats fair, but the daisy cutter is already a cone and cant be cone'd by the yermak

covert surge
#

neither can the incissor

spring creek
#

oh wait yeah it does have text on it

#

hmm

#

Ill keep you posted, but I do think its slightly overtuned

covert surge
#

we'll see

#

you can always spread out to more npc instead of up-templating npc

spring creek
#

thats fair, its been my go-to

#

especially since the party has been fighting spec ops, but now that its over I can scale it back a bit

dense acorn
#

This is a homebrew specific interaction, but how does arthur’s autonomous edge alignment interact with the variable sword? If i roll a 6 on accuracy dice does the base damage of the variable sword become 6?

covert surge
#

Reliable damage is applied after bonus damage and all shebang is done

#

So you would just calculate var sword damage 3+1d6 bonus and see if its lower than 6 or not

#

If it is then set it to 6

spring creek

oh for sure

I'd rather people waited for us to get around to making the finished, final-pass versions of all the mechs

spring creek

if you'd rather I didnt post it I wont

#

Im throwing them into my game for testing

raven socket
#

I'll leave it up to Terk, I don't like it personally, but

#

My main worry is the file getting spread around and people getting the wrong idea about the supplement due to the frames being pre-final-pass

covert surge
#

lcp makes it easy for peeps to playtest before release, the more playtest the more data I get to make the final pass of it before its pushed to final (final)_1_1 LCP and officially published

raven socket
#

Nods!
That's a fair way of looking at it.

covert surge
#

ive already said that unoffical lcp stuff stay within the channel

spring creek
raven socket
#

Nodnods
One request though, can the LCP have something in its name to make it clear that it's unofficial?

vale horizon
#

probably worth slapping a bunch of notifications in the filename and in the LCP like "unofficial preview"

spring creek
#

Yeah I plan to make it more clear with this one

raven socket
#

Thank you.

#

I wouldn't use the word 'preview', but
I'm sure you'll find a way to make it clear.

(Also by name I mean the thing that shows up in comp/con)

Im also including the heruka rework as "heruka 2"

#

I wanted to just ask, what is the main difference between the Heruka and Heruka 2?

vale horizon
#

the one labeled heruka 2 is a substantial rework of the original license

spring creek
#

Yeah afaik terk wasn't happy with how the og heruka interacted with brawler, and changed it a bit. I should have named it "Heruka Rework" as its from a rework doc that Terk is in the process of writing

#

its mainly the frame itself that changes

covert surge
#

theres a good ammount of changes all around, license items are also switched around

#

in the process of writting is more akin to conceptually done just waiting if one day I wake up felt a number was off and changed it up or down 1 :P

spring creek
#

That's kinda what I was thinking about the ones I chose to add to my playtesting

#

all conceptually interesting, just waiting on balance

spring creek
#

yeah its mostly the extra special mount

north turtle
#

Yeah for that I just put it in as another one of the mounts. Players can just read the ares drone and realise one mount is for that

spring creek
#

making en tandem a quick tied to the core system is a good idea

north turtle
#

Don't think its too much of an issue, but still annoying

north turtle
#

I began working on the Charlemagne, a mech commissioned by Boisegang, but I passed out and then woke up the next day with no idea what I had been doing xD

covert surge
#

whats the problem here? why can't it be set up ala hydra?

north turtle
#

the typical LCP JSON format is a little tricky when figuring out what you're allowed to put where

spring creek
#

like it still works, the player just needs to track which mount is their bonus main mount

#

I just tried putting a mount directly into the json for the drone and it didn't crash, but it also didn't work

north turtle
#

yeah thats my one kinda issue with compcon as a homebrew system. Not everything can be edited. Like obviously you can assign mounts, but you can't create your own type of mounts (to my knowledge), or edit mounts to spawn when something is deployed (in the laurel's case)

north turtle
#

There's a site for 5e called DiceCloud which is fully modular and is just great lol

covert surge
#

i mean the making en tandem a quick action tied to core

#

its just the core power, the drone is the core passive

north turtle
spring creek
#

ah I see what you're saying. I did that, I was just commenting that I could have used the "quick action" window thing for the active

image.png
#

just would look cleaner

#

the formatting doesn't matter that much in this case since its not for actual publishing

north turtle
#

yeah exactly. Mine just looks cleaner imo because sword bearer and en tandem is rolled into one (realistically doesn't matter)

winter temple
tardy zephyr
spring creek
#

I mean, its more a situation where I just dont think its possible to create an "integrated mod slot" on compcon than anything else

#

I'll play with it a bit if you really want it

tardy zephyr
#

Ah, that makes sense. I don't know the inner workings of comp/con at all but the only thing that comes to mind would be a reserved integrated weapon? You can't mod those by rules, I believe, but comp/con doesn't disallow it. But then you run into the problem of "this relies entirely on the user understanding what's up"

covert surge
#

Lord is still being rotated in my mind’s eye tbh

spring creek
#

current idea is to make an integrated weapon that can accept mods that is disguised as a "mod slot"

#

yeah

#

the problem is that I dont know if I can make it accept any mod

spring creek

Then I will continue to pray for(?) the Lord. YujiaPray

(taking some inspiration from how the LimSpace Houdini works on compcon, but it's not as applicable here unfortunately)

sweet marsh
#

wouldn't it be easier to just throw on the mod via the "override weapon eligibility" checkbox and just ignore the incompatibility warning? viceroy already does that

spring creek
#

wait shit you're right

#

gimmie 30 min

sweet marsh
#

the easiest solution i can think of is just an integrated system that adds a bonus mount, a LL2 null weapon with instructions to put it in that mount (mimic-gun adjacent where its just some main ??? with text explaining that it doesnt really exist), and then tell the player via the trait/weapon description to apply any mod to that weapon using the checkbox to ignore tags

#

compcon does not let you force a specific weapon into a specific mount, even on an integrated mount. and it does not let you mod integrated weapons

spring creek
#

What would be the difference between an integrated system and just giving an extra main mount (on the lord itself) and putting the directions on gunsmith?

sweet marsh
#

an integrated system being something you edit the text into?

spring creek
#

but its not like the mount would look attached to the system on compcon

#

so putting the directions on gunsmith works nearly the same

sweet marsh
#

oh wait i misunderstood, yeah

#

i said an integrated system mostly because i don't think compcon likes 4 base mount frames and i thought the lord had 3 mounts

#

(i don't go here i just poke at the compcon/lcp editor code)

spring creek
#

I have no idea how blue intends to make the zhukov but my version runs into that issue with 4 integrated guns

#

they all smush together

sweet marsh
#

hm, i'd forgotten actually - integrated systems without an integrated weapon bug out the compcon display

#

it'll show "CORE INTEGRATED EQUIPMENT:" and then the frame text just ends lol

#

and the system is visible in mech hangar but not the frames page (since no core frames have integrated systems its more of a hack than anything else)

#

so scratch that idea

spring creek
#

theres a reason I threw up my hands and gave up

sweet marsh
spring creek
#

no such thing as a single aux mount unfort

sweet marsh
#

compcon supports it

spring creek
#

wait really

sweet marsh
#

its used for integrated weapon cb under the hood, yeah

spring creek
#

hell yeha

sweet marsh
#

im not sure what you'd have to do via LCP to make it load as one, though, tbf. i would imagine "auxiliary" works as the mount name but i cannot confirm

sweet marsh
#

amusingly if i'm reading this right (I have not tested) a single aux mount might get forcibly renamed into "integrated weapon"

image.png
#

which, honestly, probably pretty appropriate

spring creek
#

that actually just happened to me lol

sweet marsh
#

well that's why :)

#

compcon hardcodes the name so that its obvious its from the integrated weapon cb. there should be no issues if you also pick up the integrated weapon cb, it'll just have 2

spring creek
#

yeah I honestly just give up, its not worth the effort for me

#

especially since terk seems meh on it

sweet marsh
#

fair enough! then let this conversation be either a warning or a beacon for the next person to try

tardy zephyr
covert surge
#

the eternal uphill cycle of trying to make a weapon support with a heavy mount

#

The heavy weapon suppression guy+gun smith is an appealing fantasy but driving around that heavy mount is a pain

spring creek
#

I feel like if you wanted to add to the croker the dullahan could be an interesting support, similar to the Orpheus from intercorp

covert surge
#

The license stuff im generally happy with its just the Lord frame itself. Aux weapon link is kinda the area of design i wanted to build it around

Wot's going on with the Crocker btw? I heard something is occurring around Dullahan, but sadly Forums cannot be searched for some ungodly reason.

#

Yeah that's a big issue

#

Iskander kind of gets around it but just barely

#

Because heavy mounts whenever added are always a key element of that frame and something they revolve around

#

That being said...

#

You could simply make it so that firing the heavy mount causes support-adjacent effects

ie: covering fire, idk (covering fire is already in HG so)

Its identity is a gunsmith/arms dealer

#

The current version is up there

pale lance
#

The issue is that a bunch of the identity of arms dealer is taken up by talents

#

Along with the heavy-gunner concept

#

In addition a lock-on artillery is already a homebrew thing and massive departure

“You always get to shoot”. Weapon broken? Weapon repaired. Limited ammo? Grease monkey. Loading weapon? Grease Gorilla. Ordnance? Gun Runner. Jammed, all weapons broken and completely out of charge and repair? Activate core and keep shooting

I'm trying to make it work in my head and I just can't

It gets to ignore pacers in exchange for turning weapons into one shot weapons

#

That 10 heat displacer? No more heat, you fire it once and throw it away and fight with your back ups weapons

#

Shot a howitzer/AMR and now you cant use your heavy mount without stabilizing? Throw it away and keep fighting

#

Daisy Cutter/incissor is out of charge/in a situation where you don’t want to spend the charge? Eject and keep fighting

#

i love the zhukov

tawdry jungle
covert surge
#

It functions on a very aggressive and front loaded tempo where it can use very strong weapons with a ton of drawbacks without actually having to deal with the drawback

#

And always being able to fight regardless of whatever happens to its weapons be it thrown or just destroyed due to sys trauma

#

But you do have to be smart abt it/pace yourself or you’ll eject all your weapons in turn 1 and be sub-par for the rest of the scene

#

It is very strong in the early-mid scene where its still running around with minimal heat and having not stabilized at all compared to other frames that’s running the same weapon having to spend turns clearing heat/stabilizing to keep fighting

#

Big rts/tcg agro tempo player gameplan, dropping efficient big hits on curve but if it can’t close out the scene quickly it starts running out of steam

Hi, is there a revised version of the Heruka frame by chance?

raven socket
#

There is indeed, it's not out yet

#

Waiting for 1.0

lofty bloom
#

ahhh ok

covert surge
#

Heres where its at currently

#

Hello, I'd like to voice my thoughts on the rework, if possible

  • Hostile Bridge has very few use cases. OS crash might once in a blue moon come handy, against a boss with an annoying E-Def. Otherwise, it's a full action to make an enemy fully susceptible to tech attacks, and smart attacks, for the rest of the scene.

  • 36 kata is not very good, and doesn't really justify the full action either

  • system shock is better than pre rework, but also, with no incentive to improvised attack now, this doesn't matter

  • blade breaker is improved. A bit reminiscent of Pelist to be honest, and I like the identity the original Had, but it is a numerical improvement

  • stress point finger is fine, but it's not and will never never be an adequate replacement for Dual Fist, because dual fist actually gave you a chance to interact with the frames traits. I mean, if Dual fist is so bad, why not just replace Hostile Bridge with the effect of Dual Fist?

  • Dharkmachakra improvement is cool I guess

  • Rhavana class has very few use cases now. Most hackers run Horos 1, and like, maybe an additional suite, but rarely is there gonna be a reason they want all 3 to 5 of those invades at once. Especially since if 1 fails, they loose all the rest. It's better on average to just full tech, and even when it isn't, there are better things to put in your AI slot like Osiris, or Asura

covert surge
#

moving Dual Fist to Frame Trait does not fix the problem at all. The problem isn't that its bad its that its scale horrendously well with Brawler to breaking point

#

on crit 2d6+2 is nuts

#

System Shock is its own incentive to Improv Attack, it outpace everything in the game currently in raw Action-to-Heat dealt and hit evasion instead of E-def. Anything else you slap on Improv Attack is a Bonus

what do you mean by 36 not justifying the full action? On its own its already the equivalent of taking 2 quick action (ram and grapple) with a Full Action Improv Attack on top. At worst its action positive, at best the target is prone, immobilized, damage and heated up, and you ticked Brawler down 3-4

#

OS Crash makes the Heruka and every single person on its team tech attack automatically hit with basically everything it has, its invade+blade from the Duat all target e-def and guarantees Ravana chains. That -2 TA frame can now throw a spare Invade at the target and automatically hit with no investment

#

the closest comparison it has in Full Action hit probablity increase are Marketlight, which gives a lock on (+1 Acc for one attack) and turn 1 attack into a crit, and Sisyphus, which depending on roll increase or decrease 2 rolls before EonT. Lock-On is a Quick Action that only gives a 1d6 (so maximum of 6) to 1 attack roll. E-def to 0 is a minimum of 6 to all attack roll that targets edef, average of 8 at T1 and going up from there

#

on that point, Ravana is a 2sp AI similar to Sisyphus, its not meant to be on the level of 3sp Limited AI like Asura, its a silver bullet you have in your backpocket to pull out only occasionally when the situation aligns, when you need to burry someone in Invade and do 8, potentially 10 with nucav, Heat in a single turn

#

One thing that feels bad about Hostile bridging is that sometimes hitting improvised attacks is hard, since there’s not a great way to get accuracy on the attack due to it being a full action. What if hostile bridging activated when you declared an improvised attack? So on one case the ram/grapple help you hit the improvised attack making the whole convo more palatable and in the other you don’t spend turns whiffing an improvised attack to do the rest of your ravana combo

covert surge
#

hmm ill rotate it in my mind, might also make it 1/scene for each option instead of 1/scene either or

cosmic steppe
#

I think it happening before the attack makes more sense for 36 Kata and less so for OS destruction

jolly portal
#

yeah no reading over Heruka myself i do agree that hostile bridging seems like itd see limited use, especially limited effective use. I agree with Plastered on this-- if it occurred beforehand you'd get a lot more utility out of it-- but each option being 1/scene also wouldnt be that bad either. It definitely needs tweaking at the minimum.

Idk what I'm doing with the painted lady but here's something, feedback welcome

trying to walk the line between lock-on support and striker without crushing the toes of Hydra party member otherwise I'd go drones.

the gist is to fish for crits with the aux/aux and then dual fist regardless of threat with a brawler-boosted improvised

and autopod to synergize with lock-on and bounce around at the speed of sound. Data lash to synergize with the shield and data cloak to proc more.

unless i fly directly above an enemy and fire straight down at them while basically standing on their shoulders lol

i'll probably swap it out for duelist and juggernaut actually

cus i could boost -> bayonet charge HMG -> total warfare off the HMG shot to ram either the target i just shot or someone else with juggernaut's benefits? assumedly?

covert surge

yep

for the cost of not getting to use your HMG on your next turn

mhm! and that would probably be when i barrage with the centari nexus and then cast off for backup weapons on both

or with this much heat cap i could even keep one and lean into nuc cav later

now you are thinking with portalQuick Detach

i love quick detach so much, the zhukov fucks

covert surge
#

the flavor for total warfare is you just literally wack them with your gun, jamming it in the processs :P

dense acorn

that rules

#

also i assume if i NEED a heavy weapon's damage i can also always quick detach the HMG and swap to the backup heavy shotgun if need be

covert surge

yep yep

#

you should probably go all the way up to CA3 tbh, Ram is a melee attack after all

dense acorn

that IS true...

probably before duelist 1 even

which allows you to maintain the +1 ACC by just looping your ranged weapon with Total Warfare for the low low cost of bricking all your weapons next turn

this and Air Cooled Engine makes it really good at staying heat stable, which on top of its evasion and gear shift makes it quite resilient against conventional attacks

well the nice thing about being really fast is you can usually safely break LOS on a lot of enemies that could punish you

#

rainmakers are the blight of the saber wing though

yknow, should the swarm launcher have the clause that the NPC optional for the ace has where it doesn't hit allies? it doesn't have loading which is a major benefit but burst 3 is uh... a lot meoweyes

cosmic steppe
#

Wait Multi-stage padding is only 1/round? That seems like just a free 1d6+2 movement every turn for a lot of mechs

#

Lots of mechs don't care about being shredded, so not a downside for them

covert surge
#

shred also turns off resistance which is the way bigger downside than the armor stuff since Brace no longer works

#

which alot of non-armor mech rely on as an emergency oh fuck when hits do get through

cosmic steppe
#

That is true, but i think the situations where more movement would help you FAR outweigh the situations when shred would hurt you

#

like defo a black witch wouldn't take this

#

but any more with only 1 armor and no innate resistance benefits massively on this. 2 Systems point to increase your movement by an average of 5 every turn is something I'd be willing to take for perma-shred

#

We played a 1 shot with the dragon tail the other day. We used the proposed changes to flare gun (no loading or heat) and it did pretty well. It basically ended up barraging every turn with the integrated and either flare guns or crossbow and did good damage, usually able to catch 2 people in the smoke field and usually hit 1 of them for follow up explosion. They brought the other systems, but the only one they used once was the line that gives your attacks burn, and that was useful, but only for a single turn before we had to move

WA hi hello

#

how do the Fruendsberg action thingys work

#

specifically with crashing blow and thor nhp

#

im lost on the upside to em

spring creek
#

Thor is getting reworked to deal full damage iirc

#

crashing blow is just fun if you have a way to fly

#

not really something to build around

covert surge
#

You can always jump, size 3 can always jump up to 3 space, just enough to trigger minimum fall damage and thus crashing blow

#

and thus Frundsberg whole thing is very similar to Barb but just melee, it can trade not moving for upside

#

if you get through Push of Pikes, Overwatch and still choose to keep staying within the Frundsberg's range, it can jump and dunk on you for minimum +3 AP damage on top of whatever heavy/superheavy is already using

#

and its gets better if you start getting either flight systems, or go down ssc and get ATMS or Kai bioplating (allowing you to jump horizontally your speed instead of just one so you can jump scare people with it)

unreal sparrow
#

what im confused about tho is the upside of the thor and stuff

#

is thor meant to let you attack again regardless of the duplicate action rule?

#

im not to sure what the "Skirmish/Barrage with one equipped melee weapon against that enemy, obeying all restrictions and still costing the appropriate action as normal."

#

isnt that just taking the action?

covert surge
#

Thor is going to full damage, its upside compared to like Asura is sheavy overwatch

#

Its just taking the action but worded that way so a) only one melee weapon, cant barrage and fire two weapon or skirmish using main/aux b) absolutely no gap between falling and doing Skirm/Barrage

#

And alot of people were confused “wait do you get to skirmish/barrage for free?” so its worded to be clear even if a bit redundant

Would it be totally broken to make AA suspension a reaction with extra heat as opposed (or maybe in addition to) a protocol?

Justification for this crazy idea: i feel like a racing chassis should have some sort of programmed ability to correct its posture once per turn at the expense of pushing all of its stabilization systems to the limits. I feel like a protocol makes good sense (it's an opportunity cost in the event you wanted to sacrifice a different protocol on that turn) , but it seems like another option of a reactionary "emergency course correction" is within the purview of a frame all about optimization of velocity.
