This is the third playthrough since installing Chaos Reign (and the second since completing the DLC series by installing Call to Arms). Now I've had a couple of Sunders show up in the DLC related missions, and I've only recently finished up Op Galahad, am about nine months or so from Op RAT.Elementals have started to appear as well.

Note to self - read the weapons display dummy.

I spent so many battles shooting it out with mechs at long range and wondering, wow the LBX is weak.

Only in the last Merc Drop grind mission did I look over and see CLU in the weapons status readout. I'm like - hang on, wut?

I literally wore out that button mashing it over and over ha.

Even the description says it defaults to SLD but I guess not. Sigh. CTRL-wep group and now we're cooking with gas.

I've looked through the help posts, found the site with the Google Docs containing representative mapping files, etc. Nothing works.

Does anyone have a VKB Gladiator NXT file they can share for HOTAS mappings? Thanks in advance.

Took a ProcGen Infiltration Mission hoping it would trigger a Mercenary Intervention (Rivals Intel Grind). The exit zone was real but I stuck around just outside it to score a few more kills and wouldn't you know it, it was also the drop zone for the continuous wave of enemy reinforcements LOL. There were also respawning at points around the pickup. So wild. Needless to say there was no Merc Drop, but I could have sat there for a while farming kills.

What I should have done was step into it while the enemy Leopard was still dropping mechs, just to see if Ryanna would fender bender him from above.

For mechs I received as salvage:

Do I make a few more c-bills selling them from Cold Storage, then selling the parts stripped off them from the Equipment Page? Or should I just sell them straight from the Available Mechs section of the hangar? Not sure how this part of the economy works.

Hi Folks,

I got the Sunder mission just before Steiner's Cambridge campaign ended.

I completed that, then timeline jumped for a bit to get to Guerrero.

That's now done, but Lyon's Thumb and Word of Blake haven't triggered yet. Should I just manually jump to Lyon's Thumb and see if the Contract exists? Does anyone have approximate dates when they trigger?

Thanks in advance!

Kurita: We appreciate you being our security and OPFOR during the Tech Trials despite the use of primitive IS gear. Here's a free Sunder to make up for the multi-mission beating by the Smoke Jaguars.

Mason and Fahad: Turns to look at Mech Bay and Cold Storage full of lances worth of Clan gear from SoK.

Ryanna ever so professional: Thank you, we'll put it to good use (snicker barely registers).

Right at the onset. It's purely for fun as I have a "per-design" campaign as well, but I laughed uncontrollably running the initial Missions intended for the Javelin with a well equipped Uller. LBX-5 BF + ATM made much short work of the objectives - Building Demo is so much easier.
