Mad Cats.
Timber Wolf just doesn't strike the same level of fear into me.
What about Dire Wolf? Does that evoke the appropriate level of fear?
Agreed....my Wasp does not HAVE to look exactly like a Veritech
I want my Warhammer proper though Orion is just not the same to me
Unseen Warhammer, best Warhammer.
I think you can change the values regarding heat and damage yourself.
As for the AC10s effectiveness, good range, good damage and stab damage on top of it and if you aquire a + weapon with damage on it, you cab do an instant head cap.
All I can read is "3025 or bust!" and "Give me teh Clanners - or bust!"... People, where's the love for the Ronin War or the War of 3039?
Your doubts are unjustified in this case. Mechwarriors that actually survive to get old tend to sit in the rumble seat as long as they can. Jaime Wolf died at the age of 87, Natasha Kerensky made it to 84. Rhonda Snord? 73, even though she didn't die in combat but fell victim to a bomb. And I could go on with that list.
Or better: I am sure a successful merc commander will be sitting in a cockpit basically til the day he isn't able to climb into it anymore.

The war of 3039 is probably the less 'known' of all of them. Probably because it came between the 4th Succession War and the Clan invasion. I guess one could liken it to that of the Korean War...both are the forgotten wars.
You think that one gets ignored. How about the Andurien Seccession?
Small fry
But i want to see that one. And, geographically, near of the 'present' location. War of 39 is very far away - and later.
You can have in order
4 Succession War
Andurien Succession / Crisis
War of 39
And only after....
Clan War's
1 - Invasion
2 - Tukayyid
3 - Wolcott Merc missions
4 - Smoke Jaguar Destruction / Great Refusal (Huntress and Strana Mechty)
followed by
Chaos Marsh
Capellan - St. Ives War
FedCom Civil War
And if you are smart, end there and not go to the crap (IMHO) that is
Jihad.
So, immense lore to plenty of DLC's.

Yes, if we can just entirely ignore the Jihad and the DarKage, that would be best. Freaking clickytech.
Daishi (and Masakari) are still more awesome (pun intended) names. I try to stick with clan denominations, though.What about Dire Wolf? Does that evoke the appropriate level of fear?
That is why I had hoped that any first expansion would bridge the timeline between 3025 BATTLETECH to 3050 BATTLETECH, this being inclusive of the Fourth Succession War (largely, though not exclusively Houses Davion and Laio), the Andurien Crisis (largely, though not exclusively House Mario and the MoC) and the War of 3039 (largely, though not exclusively Houses Kurita, Davion and Steiner) ~ in this way each of the Great Houses would be highlighted in turn and according to lore.
I still maintain the only issue with the Jihad is it didn't get a good series of novels like everything before. there's a lot of potential there for amazing storytelling. and it's not like the seeds of it weren't planted from darn near the beginning of the game.
I agree. Especially with HBS's success in finding and filling hitherto unknown areas of BattleTech Space (Aurigan Reach) and during the Jihad, there is no doubt in my mind that there are many, many tales that Andrew and Team HBS can weave for us. : )
They did use BattleCorps for writing series of stories for that period; however, the site is no longer there and I don't know what they did with the material.
