How do you kill that 24 defense (w/ hardened armor), high attack monster known as "Exarch Jonah Levin and his trusty Atlas"?

I know how, but there is no way I'd tell a Crazy cappie how to kill our exarch:p :p :p.

One word. Hyperlaser.

He's much easier to deal with once you shut him down. AP is also a must.

Anything with 12 IT should be able to hit, though you'll need high damage or armor piercing. Maybe use some armor piercing artillery. If you can find a way to heat him up you could use heat-seeking ammo.

Arzu/RisingSun/I.T. Take 4/ Kisho(LE)/Nebula/I.T.. Both can be replace with Pulse as well. Also Hot drop into back ARC with Kym, Dot, or Matt. Also Frankie.9ball/IT maybe do too.

stand at 14inches with a a mech and formation of combat techs,;} works everytime trust me

Why a formation of combat techs? I can see the repair function (although levvin does enough damage to knock most mechs past a repair marker) and even having more than one for the ability to repair every turn but you cannot use a formation to repair. It will have to be individual attempts.

But with that said, you are spending 2 orders (one to attack and one for repair) to his 1 order. He should have plenty of other units to give orders to including threatening or basing the techs.

uh,so you keep levin busy by making him target more units ;]

If your ring of Technicians does work, why would Solitude stand in front of it? He could run away so your 'mech is forced to leave them behind.

You need to try to present Levin with as few targets as possible at a time. Remember that he gets a +1 to attack for each and every target. Why give him the a +2 or +3 against your mech when a +1 is bad enough?

I agree with Cavingjan about presenting as few targets as possible, but also consider a formation . Using some the longer range infantry to give your big hammer an attack bonus to overcome that 24 defense. Also, force him to go 3-deep into that heat-dial.

In larger games you could use a formation drop with 2-3 Towed Gauss Rifles and a Kelswa Tank. An attack value 14 or 16 should be high enough to hit Solitude.

Being able to keep alternating Armor Piercing Artillery on any difficult Piece is a good way to soften up a target and make them build up heat. The Waste land planet condition is a good way to also enhance this as it elminates water from the play area and a mech must give a vent order to take cooling.

Hi all! Im a predominantly RotS player but I recently played a tough against Jonah Levin with extended range ammo. Does Jonah Levin's targetting ability work with extended range ammo? Not having a BM around, I agreed to it but would very much like to know the official ruling.

Many Thanks!
