No way Bob...you claim YOUR ideas make vehicles the equal of mechs, then deal with the terrain as given.

OTHERWISE you are porving your ideas have no vaild points and are wrong.

So I guess this means you forfit the game right?

Otherwise SHUT UP and let's get this over with.

Because that is not how BattleTech is fought. This is a debate over whether vehicles or 'Mechs are better - in BattleTech. If there were a string of battles then this would provide some interesting DATA.

So what was the final result?
Why argue if the glass is half full or half empty, when you know someone is going to knock it over and spill it anyways.

I was a Major *pain* before
But I got a promotion.
I am now a General *pain*
Yay for promotions!!!

Good god, man, I know it's been done before, but isn't it somewhat bad form to dig up a seven year old thread just to ask that question?

Well if they had the good form to say what the results where. I would not have needed to ask, now would I. And who ever said asses had good form?

True enough, but if you ask me there really is no single answer. They each have their strengths and weaknesses (the vehicles lost a major one though when they finally put a roof on the amount of armor you can put on them), but in the right circumstances they can be just as deadly as mech's.

There is now a roof on armor? Unlimited armor is the major advantage to vehicles.

Yup. Tonnage of vehicle multiplied by 3,5+40. Was reading through the Tech Manual and ran into it. It still means you can armor your vehicle heavily, it just means there is a actual sensible limit to how far you can go.

I assume you meant 3.5 not 3,5
