Market vehicles: WHY!????

In the two+ years I've been playing Nev, I have NEVER seen any heavy or larger vehicles on the market... til today.
I just simply had never clicked "list all vehicles on market" - perhaps because I figured they were all already there, and the "all" was the same listing as the default view, and was used to return to, if, after having clicked one of the weight-classes...
It might have made a difference, once upon a time, as I might have purchased something heavier than having a battalion full of Hunters.
I wish I had known... but it's my fault for not 'exploring' further.
SO! Knowing that there *ARE* more vehicles that can be purchased, are there any even worthwhile? Or is it simply down to preference.

Yup, there are lots worthwhile.
Some common ones are MAN-0AX, SCH's and ONT-LRM

beemers can be a good stop gap if your bv gets whipped in a low level and you have decent gunners for them too.

How well does a lance of 2 Demolisher / 2 Schrek fair?
Is it worth the BV / support-points? (yes, I know they're slow  hehe)

It is powerful in fair terrain, but on flat terrain you are probably gonna get outranged by LRM vehicles. It is also bad against a swarm of vehicles so I wouldn't use it. Swap the 2 Demolishers for 2 MAN-0AX and 1 Schrek for a ONT-LRM and you got yourself a nasty army for a lvl 2/3. However that would still be weak against vehicle swarms. However, nothing will make up for not having a mech, as mechs gives you better flexibility in difficult terrain and jump mechs are probably best against a swarm of vehicles.

Many of Neveron's original pages where set to defaults that did NOT list 'all' items, for reasons like avoiding loaded/reloading data that was not being used. When you wanted something more than the default, then you clicked additional buttons/ menu tabs to see greater details and so on.
The thought process was also considered that the average new player would want to see that page of Light Vehicle's, rather than all the other heavier stuff. Larger empires opening a View All of any page usually meant several minutes of lag for that player, as all that data was gathered.

Is it true? Do you really suck that bad??

There are no vehicles on the market that isnt player produced. The assault units, the good ones, tend to go kinda quickly. The cruddy ones tend not to get built.
Now there are a few vehicles produced by the admin empires, and never go to market, which i think is bs. Remove the admin empires building them and have nasi drop some.
Same thing with the player made mechs that have variants that ARENT player made. Drop the non player made variants. Things like the normal vindies would be nice, as well as some of the other ones, like the normal locust.

well SM has figured out all on his own we dont need big empires producing anything ammo, mechs, vechs you guys can all donate for that stuff? as far as the massive wave of goodies on the market we all know this is due to people getting bent over on trying to store vechs. either legal or not and now being charged stoopid prices to do such. as it stands our armed forces today do not store anything? we build to order lmao. *thumbs up* keep up the good work SM! l8rs DABOSS
