      I just wish I could fit more light mechs in a battle than heavy mechs. I'm always limited to the same number. I don't have the choice of bringing 16 urbies or 1 Mad Cat (equivalent cost) or even a choice of 3 urbanmechs or 1 Mad Cat (tonnage). I have the choice of 1 urbie or 1 Mad Cat which, just isn't a choice. Always bring the biggest mech. You can make some of the smaller ones work, but it's harder. I kinda wish it was a mix of all three. This dropship has so many mech bays (maybe with sizes like this bay can only fit medium or smaller mechs), can drop this much tonnage, and costs this much to use on top of the fuel cost (maintenance or something + initial cost). If you want you can buy more dropships... Make it so, as the game goes on, I have to determine how much hardware I want to bring and what kinds of missions. Maybe don't bring 4 assaults and heavy artillery for a 5 skull convoy escort. Maybe instead bring 15 medium mechs so they can keep up and light aircraft for harassing and distraction. I CAN"T bring 4 medium mechs because they will just die. For a lower tier mission I can downscale and use only 2 med, 2 light and a myrmidon to limit operation costs and make a profit.
      I guess I want more management in my mercenary company management game. It will make the battles more interesting too if I say, horrendously underestimate my opponent's equipment and didn't bring enough stuff or likewise if I bring too much stuff and don't make enough money to pay the bills.

      They are pretty strong right through. The AI doesn't really counter them well. But then, AI is expecting you to move slower and lose evasion under fire.
      Bluewinds tweaks the AI for this mod but most of the base spec mechs are lifted from tabletop, and most of those are... not optimal. So that's all the AI has to work with anyway.

    Orions are great. My favourite mech I ever built was an Orion. With triple Plasma, Inferno Rockets and Flamers it could force any Heavy or Assault mech to shutdown after a single salvo. Made duels a joke.
    Terrible in Arctic or Jungle conditions, obviously, but in Deserts or Martian it was unstoppable, and in Lunar it was a god.
    To be honest, this was many years ago now and I'm sure I'm misremembering it, but I still remember the simple joy this silly machine gave me, and for that I'll always love the Orion.

    I found a start dumber than urbies. In Roguetech, there a starting "lance" that gives you 10 pickup trucks with random weapons strapped to them. They ... are surprisingly effective if understandibly squishy. Especially the RL40 x2 truck. Who's ideas was that? Can strip the armor off an Atlas.
