2.- Put PPCs in every critical slot. EVERY. SLOT.
3.- Heat Dissipation? Off with that sorcery. I want my cannons to kill, not to make popsickles.
4.- Aim at friend's mech, probably some pansy nanny Kitfox or something
5.- Hit ALPHA STRIKE while laughing into the headset
6.- Daishi turns into superheated plasmaAfter that, I realised that heat disipation was maybe not that bad. Though I still remember filling the thing with PPCs and shooting from inside a lake in MW3 to get some extra seconds before "ALL SYSTEMS SHUTTING DOWN" and consequently exploding.
rotfl!

So FHDM, what setup do you use when you play Mechwarrior?I am a pilot. I use joystick and keyboard, not point and click.I was thinking about picking up a SAITEK X52 FLIGHT CONTROL SYSTEM when I had the chance. ~shudders at what responses FHDM might come up with as I think about what I am to say next~
~clears my throat and shudders in terror~
Ummmm... ~sighs~ Get it over with.
What kind of "joystick" do you suggest, FHDM?
I believe I use an old-school ch flightstick pro 2. it is starting to show its age, however. I am strongly considering getting a new stick t use and to re install the game on to my netbook.

If we get the chance, my friend here in Japan is going to take us to see this famous area where they have these cool whirlpools - like the largest ones in the world. They form in a channel between two bays. When the tide moves in and out, the water takes so long to reach and/or leave the innermost bay that the channel to it sees all these whirlpools form. There's an old bridge that goes over the channel, which is where the place gets its name from - starts with an "s", not sure how to spell it. There's also a new bridge with glass-floored observatory so you can look down at the whirlpools.

Been an okay day, trying to think of a name for the Vikings / Scandinavians of my own setting.
Already named some others, though all names subject to change if I get better ideas to replace the ones I don't like.
Tenot / Tenotian = Egyptian
Fial / Fialish = French
Parthea / Parthean = Greece
Remia / Remian = Ancient Rome
Calth / Calthic = Celtic (Not too proud of this one)
Anglia / Anglian = British / American (So unoriginal it hurts)
Manos / Human = Babylonian (See what I did there with the adjective form?)
Hey, if Robert E. Howard can get away with it, you can.

Do you know how I found this out? It was raining yesterday, and I stepped in a puddle. Wet socks all day is very uncomfortable.
Agreed. During my short-lived run as a scaffold rat at SW&B during the summer of 2011, I went through three pairs of Brahmas in two and a half months. Not worth the leather they're made from.

Damn. Am I the only guy here who has had good luck with Brahma boots?

It all really depends on whether or not I can take two days out of my work schedule starting in May, as well as whether or not he can cover my gas money, and whether or not he still needs an assistant by then.
I will, however, be taking an independent study with him next semester through the university.

Nope. It isn't here.
