Win/Loss data gets more prone to anomalies the fewer data points you have; this is part of why Tohaa score so well in just about every dataset...
Make Uma from the same release for PanO a remotely competitive shooter or Qiang from Yu Jing actually take a hit from a current-design unit and...
I've been breaking out the Squalo and Uhlan a lot with my NCA. They're greatly improved over N3, but everyone and their Dogface packing AP or E/M...
I'm not surprised, if you can build a solid army with them you could be playing Corregidor which is both (now) far better supported and has more...
Agreed on the annoyance over the lack of helmet, but I think he's safe from snipers in the Inner Sphere. Unless they miss a BattleMech badly...
I know with me it's the complex uniforms. As a complete novice painter O12 frightens me. If I could track down an Alpha Pack I might start a force...
Yu Jing complain mostly about specific units, and other factions getting really top-shelf HI in space shared by said problem specific units....
From what I've seen that's just the one guy really annoyed about HB, and all of Yu Jing mildly fuming about the Asawira. Best I can tell, the...
Have you tried Nomads? They get forward Repeaters on the Skirmisher Specialists they were bringing anyway and top-tier utility Hackers with...
Lt. Stephan Rao, Lt. agrees that the subnames for profiles are a bit silly.
I counted the Specialist profiles in NCA on a hunch; 2 Doctors, 1 Engineer, 6 Forward Observers, 2 Paramedics, 1 Chain of Command, 5 Specialist...
I was straight-up thinking about the Unknown Ranger when I wrote that post above. Top-end gunner, CC and durability in his home faction, but also...
Cutting through a lot of point-by-point arguing above, I'd just like to mention that I've started using KHDs again in my NCA not because they're...
Achilles' thing seems to be that he isn't the best at anything, but he is great at everything. That just isn't enough, sadly, considering the...
If there's any faction that should have even the concept of "disposable Heavy Infantry", it's Yu Jing. I like this idea.
The reason I call Hacking trouble for NCA is because almost all its key tools are Hackable. All its most mobile Specialists are Hackers, its best...
If you try NCA it still feels head-and-shoulders above its competition these days. Swiss Guards, linkable Aquila Guards, the crazy-strong Bolts...
We'll send some Hexas to look after the security of some Haqqi banks next time. Spirit of cooperation and all.
Agreed. It's hard to be arrogant when you're barely bigger than YJ in player count and have the zone count of the Nomads though. I've been on...
OOC, you don't see them talking much around here, but PanO High Command is actually pretty good at their jobs. Mostly I think everyone just wound...
