A friend of mine keeps bringing up the Peacekeeper, and even though we didn't play with a lot of these in the past, it was a thing I think we need to talk about.
As a assault gunboat, the Peacekeeper uses massive amounts of heavy heat weapons to take down targets at a range while staying mobile using things like Triple Strength Myomer and Jump Jets. With a focus on energy weapons, it might be weaker against Laser Reflective and Blue Shield equipped units, however.

Cant help but be reminded of the Supernova, except flattened from front to back by a Banshee with TSM... maybe even on roids.
I am new to BT (been playing MW for 27 years), & have been going through the novels chronologically (currently in 3062). I know Dominions Divided which is a dissapointing sourcebook has the Bears invading the Combine & according to BigRed40tech the Combine may just end up whooping the Bears. I really didn't understand that until you mentioned the Combine having access to all the now Extinct Nova CAT tech & facilities which. Love the videos!
Good hear some of the “modern” mechs discussed.
Most of them have few variants OR few images that can be used to make presentations. That's sometimes the biggest problem.
With such a random mix of big pewpew I really want to work some large vspl into one.
Take out the Heavy PPC for it I guess. I do prefer things to be standard for maintenance sake.
I enjoy all of Professor HeyTeeEn videos
Video came out really well great job!
Thank you for showing me this great mech!
Lord's Light still going strong with their PPCs after this whole time. Thanks for the video.
One of the best PPC out there, along with PartiKill!
If you do not ask our Touman where we had these warships or the Nomad Republic where they got that TSM, we will not ask you where you obtained our proprietary schematics in the Rimward Periphery.
😉
The Republic probably should have asked.
Or better, understand that "disarmament" was the stupidest idea ever.
@@ProfessorHeyTeeEn same plan that guaranteed the first star league dying. Look where we are now. Oh look, it is war crimes o'clock
I always thought the Peacekeeper was a heavy mech when I first saw it. The base loadout is really nice (aside from the ER Large laser, it should be a standard or a pulse) and the only real complaint that I have is that it doesn't have any hands.
The ER Large Laser does feel redundant.
why does it look vaguely like a Rampage?
I'll tell you something: The Combine may have built alot of that mech, but they didn't pick the name.
This one was apparently picked when the lead designer got pissed off at people trying to figure out a name about it.
Strange story.
@@ProfessorHeyTeeEn I would have gone with 'Friendlymech.'
Just a question, why CASE II? Plasma Rifle ammo is just inert plastic without proper prep from the weapon and I didn't see an SRM-2 on your design. And unlike Coolant Pods, the Radical Heat Sink system doesn't explode either.
Am I mistaken that plasma rifles explode like a gauss rifle when hit? If that's the case, we can save on some weight there.
@@ProfessorHeyTeeEn Don't believe so. Still looking for the rules for it, but Skunkwerks usually reduces the BV of a weapon/ammo that explodes if it is placed in a slot with an engine torso where it can kill the mech immediately, and it is not doing that. I'll keep checking, supposedly the rules are in Total Warfare pg 139,if the Tech Manual is accurate. I have slightly older copies, so the information may be outdated.
@@jamesbeard5513 Checking my PDF copy of Total Warfare, both the ammo and the plasma weapon itself do not cause ammo explosions when critically hit. They also can't be touched off due to excess heat.
Got redirected from youtube to here. Typing this before finishing the video so there may be overlap.
That's a bad mech. Its one of the few mechs that has fewer Jump Jets(3) than it can walk(4). Checking all the internal gear its supposed to overheat to use the Triple Strength Myomer, but its not actually good at melee combat.
Its got so many mismatched big guns. 1 Extended Range Large Laser, 1 Extended Range Particle Projection Cannon, 1 Heavy Particle Projection Cannon, 1 Plasma Rifle, and 1 SRM-2. With weapons generating 56 heat and only 30 cooling it overheats easily.
It lacks versatility. You could easily replace one of those guns with a Gauss Rifle and ammo. My vote would be the Heavy PPC.
The SRM-2 is basically redundant. The ammunition for it is in the Side Torso, ensuring it will blow due to overheating and take out the engine. If piloting one then dumping the ammunition immediately would greatly increase the mechs survival.
If you wanted a Quad-Cannon mech Its not an impossible idea. Except for the Jump Jets and C3, the clan Hellstar does basically everything the Peacekeeper wanted to be. They even weight the same.
Any mech with an Extralight Engine in-universe is a "Top Grade" mech that costs about 3 times as much as the next best mech.
It's a platform which needs improvement for sure. Taking out the JJ and TSM would be my first pick, change the mismatched PPC with a pair of Heavies, ext...
@@ProfessorHeyTeeEn I took it into Mech Factory and yeah doing stuff like that was one of the earliest things.
I like Energy Boats, but FASA/Catalyst like making them bad such as Ammunition right next the Engine.
So Peacekeeper is a bad fusion of the Awesome and Berserker, with a little Warhawk thrown in.
If you wanted to make a Melee mech or fire support it could easily be that, but not both.
I like making custom Berserkers. Yeah theyre expensive but having a melee zombie mech that really exploits TSM and Jump jets can be terrifying.
The Peacekeeper was designed to explode.
Not a fun of any lore post 3065ish. Everything felt forced and shallow, or overly gushing fan service. I mean, Victor is cool and all but betty sueing him into 100 years of age is a bit much. C3 computers, improved JJS, etc equipment that were all geared toward making mechs powerful for TT over everything else. Not to mention a rather blank and tossed away ending to the Thomas Marik plotline that had been so very carefully built up in the background for 40 years.
That being said, the republic of the sphere's mistakes were kinda interesting in the term of comparing them to the original Star League. Almost like a repeat of the mistakes into restarting the whole cycle of the inner sphere all over again.
I'm happy with some of the lore, but a lot of the Jihad / Dark Age / current ilClan storyline is weak. In terms of the tech, I'm MOSTLY okay with new things, but some do need a bit of balancing.
bruh the dracion combine is more like the east of human culture. you better fix the viedos into music to fit dracion combines cultrie with real battltech lore accurtcy alot better. you need then fudel japin intetmenal open sorce music far use based music. bruh you used the wrong muscal regon for this viedo for wrong innersphere great house gosdarn it. you used complen fendraton like music and your made all the real darcaion combine mebers of battltech fans realy mad bruh.
I feel like im stroking out. Am i stroking out i feel like i stroked out.
It's post-Meji marching music isn't it? Thus westernized somewhat.
@@DIEGhostfish well but dracion combine is more like pre-meji is a much much better fit techly. if we are talking aobut canonical battletech culture with the dracion combine.
Battoutai is the Japanese Imperial Army march.
It represents very well the Kuritan Imperialist doctrine and demeanor.
You dodged a coat hanger, didn't you? Go back to school, pay closer attention to grammar, history, punctuation, and spelling classes. The Coordinator would be ashamed to have you trying to defend the Combine.
Battoutai fits with the Draconis Combine very well.
