BattleTech RogueTech Lance-A-Lot: Episode 127 // The Wrong Neighbourhood //

Lol. Love Soul’s outlook. “ one of these days, everything will go right.” Dream 💭 n this is war

[@MysteyMan-z5o]

Merry Christmas Soul. That warhawk wants the mimetic stealth for Christmas baby. The kind that gives you more of a buff if you move less. Expensive though. Lol.

[@fal1026]

The lack of structure really hurts the Warhawk, it really should have endo/composite at least built-in being a clan mech, I'm glad it didn't get BTFO'd onto the loot table after just having gotten it tweaked.

[@soulstrumlp9517]

I think there are versions of the omni hawk that do have endo built in, but we just weren't lucky enough to snag it

[@fal1026]

@@soulstrumlp9517 but you got a named version, really strange?

[@fal1026]

It's annoying that inherent purpose of of the LK as an anti-aircraft isn't more represented in the stats, it was like only 25% against the choppers.

[@juliancate7089]

Btw Soul, what version of RT was installed when you started this campaign?

[@soulstrumlp9517]

Version 1.0 of Lance a Lot. There haven’t been many updates this season - I think HHR made it to like 9.0

[@juliancate7089]

@@soulstrumlp9517 Ok. That explains why you can still sell from the loot screen and I can't. I'm using v. 2.2.1, and yes, they did remove that feature. There is no hotkey setting for it anymore.

[@soulstrumlp9517]

Ok so just to clarify, I started on 1.0 but the current version I’m running is 2.2.1. And you’re saying that someone who gets the latest version without having a prior installed cannot sell their loot from the salvage screen?

[@juliancate7089]

@@soulstrumlp9517 No, I assumed that you were still using 1.0. All I know is that there is no hot key option to set up and I cannot - despite desperate attempts - shift-click an item and sell it from the loot screen. Not sure when the change occurred or how it would effect an ongoing game. There was no reason for the change given in the mentions that I found.

[@coyotehavoc5118]

Sucks that the vehivles got smoked so early.

[@soulstrumlp9517]

Unfortunately I think we've hit that stage where any vehicle with less than 300 armor just can't be on the field without getting smoked >

Instead of 2 light ppcs, why not 6 clan er mdm lasers? More spam. More damage potential. Heat is well within allowed.

[@soulstrumlp9517]

Each Clan laser is 20 heat, the light PPC's are 15 a piece. We'd be over tonnage trying to manage the heat extremely quickly to run weapon systems that are only effective at half the range of the main guns. If the Warhawk's goal was to push into medium/short range then sure we could make some changes, but that would require the removal of the Gauss as well since those don't work too well close up.

[@fal1026]

Almost broke even on this one, too bad you can't evacuate or field repair on base missions, they really need that modded in.

[@soulstrumlp9517]

We could always find a supply truck, though I think it only provides ammo. Never ran one myself.

[@fal1026]

@@soulstrumlp9517 repair trucks exist, IDK how ubiquitous they are in this version considering I'm not remembering any recently? All I know is they need to be constantly in cover & escorted by AMS, they have nothing for armor.
