LAMs themselves are really good units, but they cost so much BV that you can get the same thing by just taking a bunch of fast hovertanks or a bunch of 7/11/7 mechs. The thing is right now CGL doesn't really want to do anything with LAMs until they go and redo the aerospace rules, which the aerospace rules themselves are really bad, sorta...

that have long made LAMs themselves just about a forbidden concept.

Right now given that HG doesn't have any real grounds to come after BT ever again, the only thing that is keeping LAMs from being messed with right now per the current BT line developer is the aerospace rules themselves, like he wants to completely redo them as they are uniquely dogshit for a lot of reasons.

Look sometimes you just want to order a 40 piece nuggets and be in and out in 5 minutes. It also helps that I work 3rd shift, and it's like the quickest place (and one of the few places still open) for me to get something to eat on break if I end up sleeping all day before my shift.

Though imo 5 seasons is a pretty good run all things considered.

In order from left to right. Wolverine, Archer, Warhammer, Griffin, Rifleman, Crusader.

It's pretty easy to guess if you know the Japan BT art didn't do any chassis past original printing of TRO 3025.

It's hideously bad here, thinking about it now the entire game seems to be built for the people who complain about plane games being about 'circling around and around shooting at dots on the screen' while missing that's kinda the point and also being incredibly reductive and showing they didn't actually play the game. Kinda like when someone complains that a mech game doesn't control like a normal shooter, I want to grab them by the shoulders and scream at them that's the point and that if it controlled like a normal shooter it would just be a hideously bad shooter.

And I just remembered the worst part of the game, the fact that there's 2 turret sections in this piece of shit disaster of a train wreck, not counting the AC-130 mission. Netting the minigun turret just as much attention as the two helicopter missions, 3 if we want to count the AC-130 as a turret section.

They don't rinse their canned beans!

That's completely fine depending on what you're doing. Essentially if you're dumping a can of beans right into something that's going to dilute the liquid (like say a pot of chili), it's completely fine and hardly noticeable.

Also love the take that anyone in power in America who proposes gun control is only concerned about disarming the working class

He's not exactly wrong though, since gun control historically in the US was a lot more about taking guns out of the hands of PoC. One modern case was in California with the Mulford Act, which came about because the Black Panthers showed off the the thing whites fear the most has and still will be black people open carrying guns.

50 years from now people will likely be told a heavily sanitized version of it, 100 years from now historians will maybe start finding out what we know now.

Of course this implies that there will be anyone around left that would care about history by then.

Honestly considering the players here, how history will remember this could very well depend on who wins in the end. As I can see the US outright doing suppression of info via jailing and executions, under thinly veiled curtains of 'national security'.

Cyber Sled, and F-Zero AX.

Well, from the perspective of someone who lives in a rural part of the US, lack of infrastructure, the people who drive them tend to make the fact they drive an EV their personality trait, because of point 1 the people who buy them out here are certainly well off.

Also when they inevitably break down, you'd have to go way out of your way to find someone that even can attempt to repair it, unless you really want to learn a lot about being an electrician.

This is being overtly simplistic, but a lot of it is more often logistical than anything else at least out in rural america.
