Look y’all. North Korea and Russian recently signed a mutual defense pact. There’s a clear reason why NK troops are only being deployed in Kursk, which is so it looks legitimate. NK is protecting Russia’s borders.
All any country has to do is sign a mutual defense pact with Ukraine and pile on. That’s all he’s saying. I mean, I’m shocked Poland hasn’t already signed on… they’re spoiling for a fight.
Success!
Outstanding. My turn xD. Wish me luck.
Name one time an inner sphere lance stood against a Clan star in a fair fight and won.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but Wolcott did just this and turned the tide. The Battle of Tukayyid in particular?
And yeah the rest of your post is good… I guess I’m still just kinda confused why Piranha doesn’t really use the canon narrative to drive their stories. It raises the stakes in each game, which is great for player engagement.
Let me know how you do!
Found a couple references on Reddit this morning. Some are suggesting that you take a heavily modified TimberWolf just because the captured mechs are so fast, and to use different strats with your Star as a firing line just to take on the rest while you leg the targets.
I wasn’t keen on modifiying the mechs as I’m not fond of the mech bay, but I guess if I wanna progress I’m gonna have to roll up my sleeves.
And apparently Executioners aren’t the best mech in this sitch. Too many fights, too little ammo.
For myself I made it to the final battle a couple times, but just got wrecked in it. See if you can park your firing line in the water in various places, maybe mod them for ER large lasers and take advantage of the cooling.
I’ve got a list of complaints but I’m jaded. It’s story-lite (maybe if you know nothing about Smoke Jaguar it sells), the combat isn’t as satisfying (for me), the mech lab is kind of a joke even when compared to vanilla, and a dozen menus with questionable options isn’t good. The graphics are pretty… but there’s just… inconsistencies in choices here.
The things that bother me the most at this particular moment being so far in the game are 1) These mechs are as tall as buildings. So why instead of trees, are we knocking down tall plants? Like literally, there’s maps with weeds as tall as you are that you walk through but it sounds like a tree is falling. 2) The mission parameters will say something most everyone ignores but my OCD ass. “We’ve arrived at the AO from the NorthWest” it says. But you land and you’re looking NorthWest… so you came from the SouthEast!
At the beginning you miss a bunch of these because it’s a lot and yeah I know I’m nitpicking. Just a thought stream here.
But there’s other stuff. 3) You get weird level ups all over the place and one of them is affinities in the barracks menu. You can choose a bunch but you can get one for each mech weight class that gives you a bonus. Ok, so there’s Light, Medium, and Heavy. No Assault. Huh? 4) The story hints repeatedly that your clan’s tech is miles better than the Inner Sphere and when I’m melting Battlemasters with my mediums I start to agree. So what does the Inner Sphere bring you for serious fights then?
Flying vehicles. I shit you not. Bullet sponge flying fortresses. Guess they should’a used these in some of their wars, huh?
But I think for me, the worst offender here is the fact that it’s named Mechwarrior 5: Clans. Five. Okay, that should mean that it’s somehow related to the other Mechwarrior 5 games right? MW5 Mercenaries’ story talks about a protagonist whose father is revealed to have been a spy for ‘somebody’ that lives outside the Inner Sphere. It’s not Clan Wolf, they’ve got their own thing going. You play the whole campaign, nothing is revealed, but there’s a trailer for MW5: Clans. Surely they’re gonna answer all our questions about who this guy was, right?
…two guesses. Completely different game, same name. I just don’t get it.
Hahah that’s the EXACT mission I’m stuck on right now. Been watching videos and reviews that rave about the game but nobody talks about it.
For future searchers, the mission is called Disciplinary Action
It all depends on the dosage. Remember, suppressing the immune system means that you are reducing inflammation, which in aging is a huge component.
As the dosing regimen hasn’t been nailed down, you can absolutely overdo this and cause problems, but currently a low to medium dose only once a week, not once a day, is the regimen.
I can’t really describe to you how angry I was when that shit went through. Like… I knew it was ridiculous to get so angry but, I LOVED THAT FREAKING APP.
This was way back but had a basic support call for someone who couldn’t get their mouse to work.
After speaking with them for over ten minutes and just being generally confused I cut to the chase and asked, “Ma’am, what are you doing with your mouse right now?”
The answer? She was moving the mouse around on the monitor.
I’d love to see more funny video communities. (Bad drivers, epic fails, etc) I know it’s basic, apologies. Sometimes I just need to laugh.
This was my recent problem in Texas. Was also throwing the breaker on the reg.
A couple of years ago I had a conversation with a Haitian native on this very topic. While I deleted my reddit account and no longer have access to that conversation, the gist was…
Americans don’t seem to understand that every time they swoop in to ‘save’ Haiti, what they are really doing is enforcing the same colonial ideals that landed Haiti in the mess to start with.
There’s no politician in play down there that isn’t on the take. His opinion was just to leave it alone and let the gangs sort it out. Either they’ll pull together a government or the last gang standing will.
His statement had a lot more anger and quite a few expletives… They’re just sick of all of us, y’all.
Oh gosh yes! It’s popularity has dropped a bit since OWI’s little stunt, but you should check it out on Fridays when we try and get the OG’s to come back and show us how to kill some BUGS.

NGL I’m still a little salty at OWI only making the Extermination game after the Troopers Mod for Squad took off so hard. No credit to the hard work on that mod that rekindled the interest at all.
lmao just bought one of these last week! Glad the fix is already out.
And no, I didn’t buy it for its looks xD It’s actually a decent router that does additional things I needed.
I’ve seen this over and over in corporate environments.
Suit A has a terrible idea but enough fawning bootlickers to get the process moving.
Worker A, an employee, knows this is a terrible idea but doesn’t say anything because they wanna keep their job.
Contractor B, obv a contractor, is there to make money and hopefully turn their stint into something more, so they speak up. And get canned.
What is it about Suits that they can’t listen to literally anyone but their own echo chambers? Oh yeah, they’re angling to jump into a bigger echo chamber. The 1%.
“Well, BYE!”
Stop ordering the fries and a drink. Shit’s bad enough already. Dinner’s $5 and I bring a drink with me.
Consumerism is killing us and corporations will not self-correct until you hit them on the nose with a curled up newspaper.
