Jonah Levin
Hendrick Mekilic( ss le fulcrum)
the scorchers.

Declan
SC Donar
SC Scorchers

Hey, I'm biased :)

No, seriously - this entire one would revolve around the 16'' range - donar hover at 16'' range (eventually it will hit...), declan same, scorchers are simply... the scorchers... our mini-mech :)

Poor biased Shiva

my Shone DFA's your Declan.
my DF Donar survives your Donar
my JF slyph and Donar kill your Donar
Your mini mech runs away.......

how do you set up that DFA correctly without getting shot at first (indirect shots dont count)?

Ill probably end up taking Narc's army anyway, but im curious.

i'd go for

1st choice:
OEJ
DF donar or SC donar doesn't matter
JF sylph

2nd choice:
Shone roshak
DF/SC donar
JF sylph

3rd choice:
Jonah Levin
Df/SC Donar
JF sylph

frankly only the mechs differ my support would lways be the same :)

once agian, i think OEJ wouldnt be the best of choices.

Could anyone explain to me how he would handle Jonah or Shone?

Heres another idea:

Shone
Liao Paladin
Scorchers

The idea being that the paladin can pretty much force the other guy to come to you (pushing his vehicles and infantry) so that shone can DFA :)

If the tank or whatever gets to close, the scorchers and move up and base it.

Okay okay, so maybe this isnt the best idea and it would have trouble with a donar but hey, it COULD work...

Erin Johnson
Leo Riordan
SH Salamander

Venator - nice concept, but 2 problems:

1 - LI Paladin hasnt got AP. Of all the suggestions here,how many have black armor? Right - see the problem?

2 - Shone has a short range - go for OEJ instead. OEJ is more mobile and overall better than the , but can take less pushiment. Lack of streaks doesnt hurt as much if you've got arty.

yeah, that stupid lack of AP huh... maybe Kenny would be a better choice.

and about OEJ, i just cant see how he can be used correctly if i put down two B1's. Shone can just creep up into them and move around for the DFA. If OEJ wants to sit and wait in a pond, fine. Nothing is stopping me from doing the same.

OEJ might be one of the best mechs in the open field (although id take Erin over him any day), but i just dont see how he can be used effectively in this format.

Ive actually considered Declan and that SC Donar 16 inch range thing. It sounds pretty awesome. Up against Jonah i guess i would have to just hope i roll a LOT of 14's with the donar.

hmm, more thought needed.

Agreed..

why leo and not a DF schmitt? Id figure the red armor would be a better choice due the AP, infantry, and donars.

i guess he might be okay vs Jonah and other streak mechs, but you might have a tough time setting up a shot.

I guess im just asking your choices and the mentality behind them.

Thanks again.

OEJ don't need stinkin' water!, and I'd keep him far enough out to prevent DFA's

but then we'd have a stand off :)

He does have a great heat dial, but not as great as Shone's. I could out manuver him due to Jump Jets and the better heat dial.

All of this is just theory i guess. But my stubborn ### still inst convinced.

In order to use Shone with DFA against OEJ, you need to first get 7 inches away from OEJ, which is inside OEJ's 14-inch range. Then OEJ has to sit and wait for you to DFA on the next turn. I would just move away from the blocking every time Shone tried to set up a DFA from the other side.

What I think most peole are saying is that even a scrub would not let you get the chance for a DFA.
