Game offered me to dual wield double heavy machine guns.  How could I say no?  All the damage of double miniguns with far far better accuracy and therefore better ammo economy.

Lil Hunter literally evaporated and got to loop no problem.  Ballguy Mom's final projectile killed me as I killed her.  One day I'll get her without running out of ammo, as that's how she typically ends my run.

Also, apparently the popgun family cannot benefit from recycle gland, in spite of being bullet weapons.  Go figure.

Popguns use similar projectiles to shotguns, and I think they benefit from shotgun shoulders. It is a little bit awkward.

Back when the DLC was new, they were referred to as Green Chaos. It wasn't uncommon to have them confed, eat the entirety of bretonnia and show up in the Empire with 4 full stacks by turn 30-40. That's why their aggression is nerfed into the ground.

I kinda hope we can see a middle ground with this dlc, they're a flavourful faction and I'd like to fight them outside of the same forest maps every time.

Why would the space mutants lose if another space mutant wins the election? They're happy with that result, it keeps the rest of you out of the political equation and they can keep on passing power around the space mutants.

I love the idea that Susanna has this amazing Star League Gauss sniper and she uses it the same way she's used every other mech she's piloted; get in close and kick some legs off. Gauss range is just a distraction from the true power of the 'Mech.

3 on 1? Good grief, Susanna's ridiculous.

Did she take much damage in that little ambush?

Looks like we're taking a beating from this contract. Yikes.

Hanzoku laughs in ominous foreshadowing

You meanie, you had me worried! But then you gave me a 100t Star League machine, so I forgive you.

a KGC-0000? All for me?

I like this mercenary company. Now I just need to convince someone to weld jumpjets on this thing and I'll be the happiest mercenary in the Inner Sphere.

We did nothing wrong and we'll do it again if they keep provoking us!

2/2 on Susanna's skills? Good grief, that's a lot higher than I was expecting. Guess she really was destined to make ace. What does the cluster master skill do? better grouping of hits from multi-hit weapons?

Name: Susanna Nova
Call-Sign: Starburst
Age: 27
Birthday: 17th Jun
Specialization: Mech Pilot

Background: Susanna grew up with the firm belief that she would make an excellent mechwarrior. Every single piece of media she had watched reinforced this notion in her mind; the plucky young aces would always outshine the old guard. However, upon entering the Military Academy of Somerset, she quickly had to bury this notion. Her 'natural talent' certainly existed, and made her one of the better cadets in her class, but compared to the experience and knowledge of her instructors, she was completely outmatched. At first, she accepted this with good grace; making a fuss about it would only make her look whiny, a reputation no cadet wants to bring upon themselves at a military academy. Upon graduation, however, Susanna found herself serving under a commanding officer who seemed to embody the very worst of every Lyran stereotype; an overbred noble cretin that should have been swept out of the LCAF by Katrina Steiner's reforms years ago. Her lingering conviction that she could do better, that she could be the hero of her story returned in full force, leading her to butt heads with her CO at almost every opportunity, with her frequently calling out what she saw as foolhardy orders. Needless to say, this sort of insubordination couldn't be tolerated in a military (especially by an officer who only had their posting due to noble connections), and Susanna quickly found herself before a court martial. Discharged from the LCAF, she soon decided that the only possible job for her as a young mechwarrior with a chip on her shoulder was to join a mercenary band; one that had a commanding officer that wasn't prone to the sort of idiocy she had just been court-martialled for calling out.

Anomaly's repair system is such a cluster fuck :( :(

I have basic and advance tools, I have all needed replacement parts, I have a rifle repair kit, paid 1k rubles for using the god damned vice for 5 minutes and I still can't do shit. Either I 'm missing some kind of tool (read something about a barrel replacement kit) or Xenotech's vice is bugged because I can access it.


Turns out I've been trying to use the wrong vice.... I didn't see there is a second one on the "next room"

On the good news, you can equip a pistol in the knife slot.

On the plus side, you only really need the parts replacement system to repair practically junked items you've picked up from enemies. General wear and tear is easily fixed with the glues, oils and sewing kits you find on corpses. Once you get the achievement for giving a technician all 3 sets of tools you even get a buff to that sort of repairing. And if you really want to avoid the workbench stuff, technicians will repair items for a hefty fee.

Got some pics of my Necromunda gang today. I'm really pleased with them. The new delaque models are really nice, if kinda fiddly to put together and lacking in options beyond basic pistols and rifles.
