We're all Stravags now - [Battletech - MekHQ]

Reader mode
I shall endeavor to bring true Honor and JUSTICE to the hands of my new masters.
*Bows deeply*
Also, I have a small collection of pet bats. It's not weird, I promise, and they eat bugs.
 
The Vedette spam BEGINS.

The obvious answer here is to focus on the civvie units to kill them (only the Lumberjack is likely to survive a WHM sneezing on it; maybe the Quasit can stand up to some fire too, it's okay for a MilitiaMech) and then blow away the conventional vehicles until the enemy forces quit the field. The Bombardier is kind of poor-man's-Archer if we take it, though. Shame it's not the Star League version but I guess we can't be that lucky.

[X] Dropship Capture Reward (1,500,000 C-Bills): 2 AC/20s (600k), 4 PPCs (800k), whatever ammo we seem to be using a lot of for the rest.

We seem to have a lot of these in service now, time to collect some replacements for when the TACs come.

I agree with you largely, but over and above worrying about TACs, we should start doing the most obvious of upgrades to our mechs moving from TL1 to TL2. Freezers! Therefore, a minor modification to your vote:
EDIT: Further modification, for MOAR COOLING!

[X] Dropship Capture Reward (1,500,000 C-Bills): 1 AC/20 (300k), 2 PPCs (400k), 90 DHS (675k), whatever ammo we seem to be using a lot of for the rest.

Presumably the Drac commander pulled some strings to get a shipment of DHSs in order to do field upgrades to improve his unit's chances. Either that, or they were earmarked for a commander who had played the doubletalk-honourable-political game better, and the DCMS' logistics branch fucked up again. After all, these are the people that inside of a year from now will field the Panther-10K, which cannot fire its main gun without overheating.

Gotta get dem freezers for the 'Mechjocks. Plus, peepers. Rarely are peepers a bad thing. (When they're on your team, at least.)

EDIT: Switched to version 2.0 of this option

We need dem dubs.

Actually, thinking about it, would the Dropship reward be better if we ditched the third PPC in favour of another 30 DHS? That'd still leave 125k for assorted ammo, but it would give us a total of ninety Freezers for refits and subsequent repairs. Might be worth a lot more than one extra PPC for our merc company.

I kind of like that math. We can buy PPCs a bit more easily than freezers anyway, right?

Yeah, I think so. If nothing else, we've been looting PPCs from scrapped Panthers and the like, while very few enemies have had freezers fit.

I edited my post to have the increased freezer count. If anyone else who's already voted for the 60 DHS loot wants to, they can alter their vote to the updated 90 DHS loot.

Sound logic is sound logic, especially as we more than likely can salvage any number of weapons and armor from future crushed enemies. DHS not so much.

My problem is why on earth would the DCMS have 90 freezers here? That's 4 Grand Dragons worth plus some spares, or an infinite number of Panthers worth.
