[OOC] Howling Sands

[orangebox]

Howling Sands might also want to invest in some transport planes - because med-heavies aren't exactly the most fuel efficient when it comes to covering long-distances in a short amount of time. Also, considering that Bahl isn't exactly a flight-type mecha - Bahl would be walking all the way to the area of engagement in order to minimize energy consumption XD

[LHG100]

Heheh, yeah.

[ClocktowerEchos]

Yeah, that would be a good idea. Also, how many levels are there?

I could try to expriment with trying to draw a base layout with the help of Google.

[Nallore]

Post is live really sorry for the wait everyone.

[orangebox]

Weight ups isn't just 'everything ups', you basically trade mobility and possible stealthiness for more guns and armor, so as long as you don't like, hug them or something and try to make sure they can't lock on for too long (so they can't fire too many missiles), (Which with Jeanne's training you'd definitely know already IC) you should be fine.

@LHG100

Well, some super robots which are 'extra-large extra-heavy' types actually have stealth units XD If you've watched the recent Aldnoah Zero - you'd be amazed lolol

Also, for mobility - adding that OB function I've been wanting would cover it - for the most parts lololol

---

Still, I personally favor heavies because of the ability to carry more weapons/house more ammunition. Say for example - if ammo count is actually tracked in real-time - you'd run through it really fast if you're going as a light / ultra-light NCM. Leaving you with only close quarter laser blades and the like as your only means of engagement.

[LHG100]

Sure! I'm thinking three levels.

Hangar level, (the top), which is devoted entirely to the hangar/entrance bits, and has a big elevator to the second level, and stairs. obviously.
Personnel level, which is the actual 'basey' part, with the barracks, armory, control room, briefing room (connected to the hallway that leads to the stairs, that go up to the hangar, if that makes sense).
And the Maintenance level, which has all of the base's storages and has the primary generator room and all, also much more heavily armored back-up command facilities in case of attack.

Also, Bahl is launched.

[ClocktowerEchos]

Got more weapons, this time 2 machine guns and a sniper!

Volkov T-21g Automatic Rifle

M41G3-08L SAW

M800 Anti-Material Ballistic Rifle

Also, working on another post

[orangebox]

D; Being an avid fan of the AK-variants - it kinda pains me to see how it's modded into an aussie owen gun...

The RPK works really well with a drum-mag as a machine gun no? XD

Soz, I tend to be a bitch when it comes to AKs...

[LHG100]

In any case, more happenings at the refinery while the Howling Sands Squad (you guys) goes to the target area.

[orangebox]

Awesome, more AA&Ts! Good chance to show them what their scrapped variant can do XD

Edit:
Lead on Phantom Zero! I'm pretty sure Bahl and Himiko would be the slowest lolol So don't expect me to post before you until we reach the AO.

[ClocktowerEchos]

@orangebox I hear you like AKs, so I made a special one just for you. I kept as close as I could to the original style and Russian efficiency

Clicky

[orangebox]

I'd normally cringe but that was actually hilarious XD

dat nadelauncher as a buttstock, now the operator even has his back covered! XD

[LHG100]

Is that a backwards firing grenade launcher?

GENIUS COMRADE IVAN. YOU SEE IVAN, WHEN YOU IS OF HAVINGS BACKWARDS FIRING GRENADAS, NO ONES IS OF DOUBTINGS YOU BECAUSE IF YOU IS OF IDIOTS YOUD BE OF CORPSES NOW!

GENIUS, COMRADE.

[Eklispe]

I imagine just throwing that at someone and hoping for the best because obviously something on it is going to kill them.

[ClocktowerEchos]

Yes, a 90 round clip with a pistole grip at the end to ensure fast and comfortable reloads, an underbarrel grenade launcher for your underbarrel grenade launcher, a 270x zoom scope with a red-dot on top for CQC and 3 bayonets to make sure you win and knife fight (since the guy who said don't bring a knife to a gun fight was a moron), a backwards launcher so ninjas won't surprise you, a fore grip for max mobility and bipod incase you want to snipe with the launchers or gun...

It truely is the pinicle of Russian engineering. Comrade Stalin approves and Putin approved

>Salutes

[Eklispe]

HE WAS WORKING FOR THE RUSSIANS!!!

[ClocktowerEchos]

DON'T MAKE ME USE THAT GUN ON YOU OR GIVE SAID GUN TO YOU

[Eklispe]

HE WASN'T WORKING FOR THE RUSSIANS!!!

[orangebox]
