MechWarrior: Online - Timber Wolf, TBR-C (Any OmniVariant) Build

Well; thanks to the new patch (July 15th, 2014) Clan LRMs have finally had their minimum range removed. That is; they now no longer have minimum range; albeit they do less damage at any range less than 180; but it's better than no damage.

About bloody time I say! This should've been implemented right from the start. But hey, I guess better late then never ay?

I reckon you can probably guess today's build ay?

Check it out right meow!

Warhammer 40K: Eternal Crusade

So I recently signed up for the Warhammer 40,000: Eternal Crusade Founder Pack. Actually I signed up today really! I was originally on the fence about purchasing the Founder's Pack. I mean there are a lot of negatives when I think clearly about it (none of which I'll name; but you can easily guess).

After some tragic life events (post on that when I get the heart); I figured spending $40 to support a game I hope becomes really good; seemed like a pretty good idea. I mean if you have $40 saved on the side for games/models; might as well use it here.

I mean the goodies I get for it are pretty good. I get to reserve the much coveted name of Thaddeus (or in this case Varro Thaddeus). I also get 40,000 Rogue Trader Points (RTP, similar to MechWarrior's MC). I also get Beta access and can reserve a Guild name. Most likely I shall be thinking of some awesome Space Marine Squad name.

Regardless; there's a whole bunch of information about Eternal Crusade. And also I shall reveal my referral code for people to get some extra RTP.

MechWarrior: Online - Timber Wolf, TBR-PRIME (Any OmniVariant) Build

Truth be told; the title should actually read TBR-S (Any OmniVariant) Build rather than PRIME. Mostly because I actually used this build on my TBR-S; I managed to get to Master with this build!

During the grind; I partially fell in love with this build (its got nothing to do with the Anime character I named it off). Ironically it doesn't even have CSRM6s!! Or any SRMs for that matter!!

One can argue that it's kind of a "cheesey" build. And I would agree with thee to a certain degree. But it actually takes quite a bit of skill to use this build. More so than the simple "MetaWolf" of a CGauss and 2 CERPPC! After all; it takes someone with good heat management skills to actually pilot today's build.

MechWarrior: Online - Warhawk, WHK-PRIME (Any OmniVariant) Build

THEORY TUESDAY

I have another Theory build in which I need a gullible guinea pig to test this for me. Truth be told; on paper this thing is a beast with an extremely high Alpha whilst still remaining (relatively) heat neutral. The DPS is also very high. I will admit that it is rather hot, but that can be negated with a Coolshot and/or an Elite-ed Warhawk.

Animation 'of the Month'

'of the Month' is a segment where I basically spotlight 'Something Awesome'. This will happen on the last day of each month (seems more appropriate to have it at the end than the start).

So what is 'Something Awesome'? Well 'Something Awesome' can range from Artists, Music, Movies, Games and anything else that is worth mentioning! If you know 'Something Awesome' that should be mentioned on my Blog, then just share it in the comments! 

'Something Awesome' this month is:

Kawaii Tanks (1:72 & 1:76 Scale)

For a while now I've been working on Tank Model Kits. The first of which is still a WIP; a 1:35 Scale KV-2. The second of which is a wide range of 1:72 & 1:76 Scale Tanks which range from anything I can get my hands on. The first 2 I've built are the Panzer IV Ausf. F2 and the Churchill MK VII.

I've been posting my progress on the ACES Forums in a kind of "Forum Blog".

Regardless; I'll repost the Progress Update for the first 2 here.

MechWarrior: Online - Timber Wolf, TBR-C (Any OmniVariant) Build

Another week; another build ay? This one's a good one though! Just as good as last week's Splat Wolf!! Well it feels pretty decent anyway. Come to think of it; all my Timber Wolves have CSRM6s... I dunno why too. They are simply fantastic!! Ok, maybe i just answered my own question.

Being more formal however; I'm finding that CSRM6s are really, really good. Hell SRMs in general; whether they are IS or Clan; they are good. Now the question of the day, are they OP? Incidentally, no. Admittedly they do very high Alpha Damage (12 per SRM6). But this damage is spread. If you have 4 lots of SRM6s that's 48 damage Alpha. Again spread and also you're limited to 270m max.

Regardless; here's my TBR-C build; but it can also be transferred to any other Variant.
