Pretty much.
The spear/gun names are Celtic, belong to other figures (Lugh for Brionac, and Cu Chulainn for Gae Bolg).
Siegfried is still European, but of another... saga?

Don't make fun of that story, it could be a real thing in specific animes.
It would also explain his superhuman skill at machinery.
Someone failed his History skill check.
I like how he thinks about better speed right after a new paint job, which it will be red, of course. That way it will move 3 times faster.
Oh dear, either Richard is going insane/eccentric due side-effects of the mental interface, or the vehicle is gaining sapience due the mental link and having living matter as part of the chassis.
Who's piloting that vehicle?
I asked before: How different this is from Timberworlf's heavy armor?
Good candidate name.
Nah, they should be more over-the-top names.

Nibelungenlied? Probably not.
My guess? Timberwof's heavy armor was supposed to be there from the start. The "After Market" armour was added on the units after they were purchased (After they arrived from the Market).

I think in this case that it should just operate under its best judgement. Cherry tapping weakened units and the like.
This was more meant as a request to remind Basarin that it exists by mentioning it.
The first few turns will have a lot of rolls so attempting to help the QM by mentioning all our moving parts means that it's more likely no one would miss anything.

Going to conduct the rolls shortly.
If anyone wants to bundle up your proposed naming schemes into one post for me to reference, I'd appreciate it! I'm more than happy to apply what you all want as far as names are concerned.
Though @Not in Person, a word of advice.
Never pursue Lu Bu.

I think "after-market" means it's a second-hand good. However, I meant differences mechanics-wise, black-market armor shouldn't be as good as military-grade one, right?
Wut? What does that Dinasty Warriors meme have to do here?
Obviously the fist should be called one of the following:
-Victory Fist
-Fist of Fury
-Fiery Fisting
-Broken Revolver
-Fist of Doom
-Raging Fist
-Fist of Rage
-etc

Nothing. It's just that for some of us, it's almost a reflex action to say that meme whenever his name pops up.
Hopefully, Callaghan sticks to one.
Though it would be funny if he (or the Command Crew) keeps on changing the name whenever they refer to it.
Major Devin: "Captain Sasaki, I authorize the use of the "Raging Fist"."
Captain Sasaki: "Understood. Lt. Callaghan, "Broken Revolver", ACCESS APPROVED!"
Lt. Callaghan: "TAKE THIS! OUR COURAGE! OUR FRIENDSHIP! VICTORYYYYYY FIIIIIIIIIIST!"
Ivanna: "Wasn't it called Blast Knuckle during the last sortie?"
Katarina: "Hush, little sister. Don't mind the silly humans."

-Turn One Strategy, QM Interpretation: Beowulf conducts Ramming Speed as his opener on a Tank-Mobile formation, and will use his free Strike at Disadvantage to follow up, either to finish it off or get started on a new one. The V-33 attached to him will prioritize his targets. Agility roll will apply as needed.
The Jackal Squadrons will follow suit. Both will engage the same target to whittle it down before moving on to the next one.
Longship formation will prioritize any remaining Tank-Mobiles with its Heavy Weapon Strike (3d6). Note: Longship will return on Combat, Turn 4.
-Turn Two/Three Strategy, QM Interpretation: Clean up any remaining Tank-Mobiles that survive, and start work on the Bucklers. Preserve abilities such as Heavy Weapon Strikes on the Beowulf for potential enemy surprises (smart, as it turns out).

Actually another thing that I wondered about @Basarin, the text for agile used to read something like "negate one successful strike per turn" during the dam event and now when I look at the description for agile in Callaghan description it doesn't mention the turn limit (while the agile for the Foxhound combined form does). Is this upgrade to agile on purpose?

One tank per unit, or multiple ones? These guys apparently sneaked like several dozen tanks near our base.
I see Cal remembered to apply red paint to move three times as fast. And it worked!
Welcome to near-Super Robot-level mechs! If we were half-way through before, now we're closer than ever thanks to our upgrades!
I hope that for extra hilarity Cal didn't transform and used all of his weaponry in vehicle mode.

I wouldn't say 'nerf.'
Just 'with a small price tag attached.'
@HeavyBane, I DO mean the whole formation. Which is about four trucks/three IFVs a piece.
It wouldn't be a mecha show otherwise.

Probably make it that every activation after the first makes launching your next attack roll harder, until you get to the point where you're functionally spending all your time dodging fire.
So it's still hard to kill a nimble and dodgy asshole, but you can still suppress them if you point enough fire their way.
But yeah, forced them to commit their reserve before we pulled out our bag of tricks, we're definitely ahead so far.
