Certainly there is something to be said for the Classic Marauder. I use it frequently enough in tabletop.
What do you call 75 ton Crab? A Marauder.

And yes, I seriously considered instead of using this version going with one with a Large Laser up top, but given the context of start, I knew I wasn't going to pick the basic Marauder. I'm just not a big autocannon person even with the ability to have one that comes with CASE starting. The ability to have the maneuverability of jumpjets that's one of the driving features of this build.
I have played a lot of MechWarrior Online and the importance of high mounted weapons in a non-tabletop context cannot be overstated. I suppose we see more knuckle dragging and low to mid torso mounts for big guns because that's easier to engineer so that the gun's weight and recoil don't unbalance the mech, but a high mount is really useful for hill humping because the best way to soak fire is with the terrain instead of your mech.One of the big reasons for the roof gun was for hull down shooting. That said it's your mech.
Hmm?Hope this would be abandon with the first couple of chapters like most BT stories.
Sorry, have some problem with missing words sometimes. I mean I hope you don't abandons this story.Hmm?
At the minimum we're getting off of Aquagea and getting to Detroit that'll probably be twenty two thousand words right there. I can say that because thats what I've written in the span of a week.
I believe his mech is engery weapons only. Also those people are basically the only real military force on the planet.So I am enjoying the combat, but I am wondering what the point is of his actions? What is his purpose in fighting? Spoils... he has no salvage crew. Take over as leader... he is 13. Heck, how did he get his mech reloaded without a crew?

Might be on the energy weapons, but we still don't know anything about the rigging and he has no rigger to dock his mech and maintain it. Second, wasn't the fort stripped by ker and his future clan rats?
This is an Energy Weapon only Marauder.. Its PPCs, Medium Lasers, and the head small pulse laser (which I'm really hoping doesn't get broke because they're extinct currently.)So I am enjoying the combat, but I am wondering what the point is of his actions?

Think he can fine more lostech stuff for his Marauder?This is an Energy Weapon only Marauder.. Its PPCs, Medium Lasers, and the head small pulse laser (which I'm really hoping doesn't get broke because they're extinct currently.)
From Cimbri's powers section?
The thing with the DropShip is that basically once the Sandstorm started, we're talking the equivalent of a sand storm hurricane kicking up the Dropship couldn't really leave. The sheriff mentions this in his interlude, once the rain had started yeah, thats totally on the captain or the 'viceroy' for refusing. And these are technically professional house troops if in service to Zathras as an empire, not mercs or pirates (mind you if this was one of the obvious suspects of the successor houses the captain would be getting purged anyway)Well, that was likely the least bloody and least damaging way to fight off a 'raid'. And I bet a lot of the crew is now pissed that the captain of the ship didn't take the offer to leave earlier. Throwing good money after bad. On the other hand, you have a lightly damaged dropship now. A couple ASFs and some decent mech salvage. The locals are likely a bit annoyed with you, but the way you worked though them, meant that there was fairly little damage from your fighting. So they shouldn't hold it against you too much. The local government will likely be fine with things, if you give them a couple of the light mechs.
