2nd try:




140 frame limit - 85 frame - 47 Armament/Extra = 8w reserve (82% of max capacity)
600k Starting balance - 221.59k Frame - 66.2k Armament/Extra = 312,210c

Odd Note: despite using weapons that did not exist in the original application, ending-balance was nearly identical.

I'm being pestered to post in a few 1x1s and a tac-team RP at the moment


Looks good to me!

I just thought about one thing. C3 won't work from stealth or does it in this setting? As a matter of fact, what would be the limitations and drawbacks of the active camo? If C3 works with it and it limits my own vision then I'm positive it'd be an essential part. Other way around and I should probably stick to extra armor.
(sure I got time to post before the exam but I'll need a satisfactory draft before posting any IC)

Edit:
I should just stop posting here about how I might get to post IC as it just keeps backfiring...
I'm very unlikely (again) to get one up today. Tomorrow is a free day though but can't promise anything to begin with.

The active camo is only a visual countermeasure. The surface of your FRAME will take on a hazy pattern resembling the terrain behind it, making it difficult to see. It does not hide heat or radar signatures. That's what ECM is for.

Theoretically, you could have both the camo and C3 on the same FRAME; they don't conflict in any way.

They both take up the external hull, though?

Perhaps add something saying that they are compatible with this, or incompatible with that....?

At first, I had no idea what you were talking about but then I saw that the C3 had 'external coat' under mounting. It must have been a holdover from when I was copy/pasting templates. No, the C3 is an internal suite built into the body.

Should I drop some "half-assed" ICs and detail them next week or should I just say I'll probably post on the weekend or Monday the earliest?
I'm trying to draft a somewhat quality post atm for ya'll.

...people draft their posts?

I just... wing it. And I write as good as I can, maybe go back and edit things if I'm feeling particularly inspired, but I just write as best as I can and write whatever comes to mind that makes sense.

Well, I posted something I'd normally consider an unsatisfactory result but I'll let it result as mentioned before when I said the quantity and quality would plummet for the time.
I'll get to "repairs" when I'll get more time to work on new ones too.

Whenever you're ready! Getting the okay to put your sheet in the Char tab is basically the green light to start posting.

Woo, got my post up at last! I was quite pleased with it. I liked describing Elaine's civvies too x3
I'm looking forward to us socializing, so we all get a chance to know one another in character a bit more and talk - the mission was good, but we didn't really get a chance to talk, of course.

In terms of my FRAME, I also removed the C3IS as I didn't really need it as we'd discussed. I didn't buy anything else either, as I couldn't really see or think of anything else I wanted, so I've just left it as it is for now.

For the benefit of everyone, I'll change the C3IS for explosive reactive armor. One major reason is that the extra armor will probably lend itself useful when the enemy uses thermal sensors or other ways to spot me aside from sight and radar because it would not really be hard to see someone convinced of enemy not being able to see him. I believe that soon we'll be able to diversify much more and fill different roles and maybe there would be some interesting gear to be had.

Yeah, I think you're right there; there's a limited pool right now, but once we have more systems to choose from, it'll make it easier for us to take on whatever niches or roles we'd like to have. At the moment our mecha are all broadly similar simply because we have the same equipment to choose from.

Aaand post up! Couple more questions:

How does modding a FRAME work? Anything from stripping down armor, replacing internals, overriding safeties. I don't blame you if that's too much crunch to have to finnick around with, but I'm curious if modifications are limited to specifically to the FRAMEs and armament mentioned in the OOC.

Any word on black market parts?

Aye, and could we find items to buy in the city, bring them 'back' to get approved, and then purchase them [for much higher prices] to fit onto our mechs?

"Bernard? B.F.F.?"

The body I've lost... the comrades I've lost... it's like they're all still--

Representing the interests of the Bernard and Felix Foundation, the Spirit of Motherwill is the answer to any battlefield dilemma. If the world calls for wet-work, we answer! No greater good! No just cause!

at first I thought the BFF was just a coincidence but after those lines it was sure what Bernard and Felix Foundation he referencing to and the Spirit of Motherwill was a dead giveaway.

As for the post itself, it was a good read.
