Good call on the Vulcan idea. I have one thats running something like 5 flamer and hvy flamer in combo along with an ERLL and mpl. It runs in, heats them up and kicks their legs off.
I very much enjoy the stream of consciousness stuff that other folks have mentioned on battlemech building, and I hope you carry that on to the battles more faithfully! If you find a good excuse to throw in some mech jockey named Fox, throw him on to a rat bastard of a zippy mech to EVA tank! If you want an early game challenge, head on down to the sanctuary worlds whenever they pop up.
Heh Ill take it into consideration. Sanctuary tech might be really interesting. I could try and keep the faction alive longer than they were meant to be as well haha.
@@TheManyVoicesVA it is definitely hard mode to fight against! Their drone tech makes them all pretty much c3 units, and everything seems to have endosteel and ferrofibrous, but getting those juicy not quite clantech XL engines is stellar. Also, if the ranks of your light cavalry get too full, I will definitely take a slot in the missile boat category xD
@@Blatherite Very well :P I think I will probably run a missile boat at some point but not for quite a while unless I get lucky. Assaults are a ways off haha
Ok. Read your tool tips. You asked, "do we have MML ammo?" Unless there's been a huge change to MML functionality with the latest updates, you have ammo for it in the form of LRMs and SRMs.
Ya I realized this later on lol. In tabletop you need specific ammo for MMLs, not so in BTA!!! I'm thinking I might want to pick those up and make an MML boat with some utility ammo. Mines are super fun.
Personally like the more stream of consciousness style of mech building segments as I find fun compare the differences between the though processes. In the past with the Fa Shih has impressed with quite a bit with its potential to crowd control larger mechs while harrying with support fire.
@@TheManyVoicesVA Yeah pretty much it is kinda hard to get better weapons on it since it doesn't have the most tonnage for BA with the mine dispenser.
I know this video is 2 months old but i just found your channel. You can preload the BA in some of the APC'S, Omni Mechs, and any Mech with a battle handle on the deployment screen before battle.
@@TheManyVoicesVA yeah but with lights there's going to be a lot of kicking, making the +1 moot The Owens is probably among the best non endo lights in the game, only bested by the Raven
@@ironboy3245 Absolutely! It will be sticking around for quite some time most likely lol. Im on the lookout for a firestarter as well as I said because it had s ton of support slots. 2 mechs worth of flamer spam is really strong. I could actually just load the Owens up with flamers, but the extra gear it has bound in makes that hard lol
@@TheManyVoicesVA my usual loadout for scout mechs is max armor, C3 master(TAGs only buff AOE damage now), narc, acid SRMs and maybe a flare mortar if it has space
You have to click on the BA portrait and hit "mount/dismount" at the bottom. Sometimes you have to scroll down to the bottom of the weapons tab. Loading them in is easy you can see me do it with mechs. You load them into the little tab above the vehicle, and then you put a pilot in the same spot
@@hoovie109 You are very welcome! I did say 1st come 1st serve lol. Hoovie eh...? U want that to be the callsign? Im thinking he sucks up aggro like a hoover and will be a tanky boi

@@MrDmitriRavenoff hell ya! Once the pilot gets a little better it will be insanely evasive too.

Ty for feedback. Fa Shih eh? What did u stick on em? Just flamers?
@@TheManyVoicesVA Yeah pretty much it is kinda hard to get better weapons on it since it doesn't have the most tonnage for BA with the mine dispenser.
@@ananarchist3924 makes sense. I looked at refits and its basically armor and a couple flamers haha

@@afp75 oh I know trust me lol. Some can't be loaded tho. The doggo BA cant I dont think for EG.
I have to get back to BTA at some point lol
Also, comedy option: Manny’s Ninja Turtles and lean into the turtle colour scheme. (Don’t do this)
Manny's Michelangelos. Cowabunga it is o_O
I prefer the less edited style as well. You have a good laidback demeanour so it’s fine leaving in the slow parts. Are you keeping this series alive?
Yes! Im gonna put the next episode up this weekend
Awesome! Looking forward to it. Thanks for the effort.
You're welcome! Next ep is up :)
Honestly i like loading my lights out with SRMs, especially early on. I dont think anything beats them ton for ton at close range
Lasers get a pretty significant boost to hit. +1 aint nothin to sneeze at haha. I definitely like SRMs though
@@TheManyVoicesVA yeah but with lights there's going to be a lot of kicking, making the +1 moot

@@ironboy3245 oh true I can take mortars on the Owens... cool idea. Mortar and MMLs maybe. Wait does TAG not help with to hit anymore?
Do you know how to use the APC’s in this mod? I couldn’t figure out how to get the BA’s in or out of the transports

I'd like a warrior named after me if thats alright. My username will suffice.
Any preference on what kinda pilot?
@@TheManyVoicesVA Preferably a MechWarrior, I'm not picky though 😁
@@hoovie109 gotcha. Ive already recorded ep 2. Ill swap one of their names in ep 3 for ya :)
@@TheManyVoicesVA Thank you
