My advice for you would be a Highlander or Victor at the moment.
I tend to do quite well vs the Clans with them in a brawl (excessive use of JJs and SRMs to the face).
Clan stock mechs have a real problem, all their main weapons are in their arms. Go for them at a distance and you're safe.
But to be honest, I'll give the TBRs with 2xCUAC5s another 2 weeks and they'll be nerfed.

Nope.
IS Mechs have their perks which level the playing field quite nicely.
Clan Mechs have fixed Upgrades and Engines, so your run of the mill IS Mech will out-run and out-armour many Clan Mechs.
They have the bigger guns, but the IS has versatility. :)

Not really a fail imho. The Daishi is close enough.
is basically exactly the same as this (Note: The Angle makes the chamfered edges look smaller that combined with the chamfered 'hud' gives it a bit of the Masakari feel.
except that it is a different variant without the Torso Missile Hardpoints and the Torso Energy Hardpoints.

Btw: This is a Masakari:



On the Nova I can agree with you, it is not "canon", it is a mix between a Super Nova and a regular Nova. Mind you, I think it looks awesome though. :)

It's a hit and run Mech, just like the Blackjack.
You move in at speed, pop one or two AC20 shots into the enemies back and on to the next enemy you go (or jump ;) ). If the enemy is alone, then you can use the SSRM to strip the enemies armour while you circle him. The AC20+2ML in the arms are also perfect to core the mech while on the move.
It's most effective if you hang back a bit and then move in when the first skirmishes are over and the enemy is already damaged.

Doesn't seem wrong to me, as this weekend was a "DoupleXP Weekend".
You also had a TAG/Narc with you, which gave you some arty assists as well, which can't be seen in the list. All together that brings you up to 4.518XP and double that for the first victory of the day with the TDR. Et voila 8k+ XP. :)

At the moment I'm really enjoying my Assault-Medium. Aka the VTR-Blackjack

Interesting builds. In your first build though, I'd put the AMS and AC2 Ammo into the legs seeing that you have the full 60 Armor on them.
Should a Crit get through, then at least you still live and won't lose that XL. :)
The LRM-Mech is a bit hot, but it looks really viable. I think I'll give it a try tonight. :)

The Sjöhistoriska Museet is quite nice, although the have more models of ships than the actual thing standing around.
Other than that the Vasa Museum which features a battleship. ^^


@The question about the skins. True that there were also some "normal" skinheads, but the other type could very well just have lingered on from that demo that Ted mentioned.

Thanks for all the tips. We had a nice trip and ended up in a few, but cool and very unexpected areas. :)
Södermalm was nice, but the amount of Skinheads was a bit unnerving. ^^
Other than that Stockholm is still as beautiful and expensive as I remember it. :)

Dukat,
you should play it for what it is. A support Mech, a little bit like a QKD. It's not as fast and surely has some issues, but the trick is to stay back with the group. And utilize those double AMS! They really shine against those LURMs. :)

Here are some builds which I quite enjoy:
1. http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=155&l=0701b4cf1ecbd733987e912101841b9ccb490f94
Use the ERLL to pepper enemies at a distance and collect those jummy cbills for assisting. Once the enemy charges damage him with the 25DMG Alpha of those MLs and then hold the two MGs into the holes to crit the bugger. Removing one of the ML for a flamer adds to the crit goodness. :)
Fire-groups
1. ERLL
2. 5xML or 4xML
3. 2xMGs or 2xMG+Flamer

2. http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=155&l=2e04f5caa41046be5906d4dc1569c36a528ec60d
A typical meta hitter. Get your torso and the right side of your mech into cover and use the left arm to shoot at the enemy. Double tap the AC5 for a constant shake on the target and hose them down from a distance. Then once they close us the ML to end them.

3. The basic loadout with a twist:
http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=155&l=0d311d2cb03b6ae516418ffddb8998a087d1be97
Forget the SRM. Use the ER PPC as in the first build the ERLL, then the ML to open em up and in the end crit-search with the Flamers and the MG.

4. Your Build - Same same, but different:
http://mwo.smurfy-net.de/mechlab#i=155&l=81dbf7339337aef0d8053cdbdc1be1ab41f2434a
Use the LL and the AC10 in union for mid range harassing and then stick the flamers and the ML in the face of a damaged enemy coming for a brawl.

What I forgot in the list above is a sniper-build utilizing that high energy mount in the chest:

Keylogger, no. I'm just saying people don't like their credit card information being looked at. And if you make a purchase on Origin, that's what they'll do. Again, not saying they see everything, EA isn't NSA here, just saying Origin looks at your credit card info. So does Steam if I'm not mistaken...
Also, FH2 launcher does have a log-in, but it logins for you with your BF2 account. Go to options and you can select your account you login with.

Ehm, not trying to go pro Origin or anything here, but ANY company where you purchase something via credit card NEEDS to get your CC information. That's how paying with a CC works. :)
On the other hand you could use Paypal with Origin to buy stuff, but then Paypal knows who you are. So not much gained there. Does Origin allow Prepaid-CCs?

Just something that is nice to see over Easter. Or something that you must see in Stockholm.
We'll be there 2 Nights and 1.5 days, so clubbing is not really a thing. Perhaps a nice bar/lounge though.^^

Hi Guys,

since I know that there are some Scandinavian Friends here on this forum I'd like to ask around, if anyone has an insider tip for my little 2 day trip to Sweden's Capital, which I'm going to visit this weekend.

Cheers N24

That all-laser BNC-3M is a viable and good build. I like similar ones on lighter mechs, but hell why not on a 95t monster. It gives you enough mass to survive a brawl and enough space to run it cool. My favourite ML beast (not yet owning a BNC) is the Battlemaster BLR-1G.

At the Moment I'm levelling my Orions and I must admit, it is one of my favourite Mechs. :)
