MRW I am told that Battletech, being set in 3025, will not have XL engines.

RIP literally every light mech and the Dragon.

THIS CHANGES GODAMN EVERYTHING, NOW I CAN'T HAVE MY MOBILITY AND STILL KEEP FIREPOWER.
The XLs are a worthwhile tradeoff for the smaller mechs anyways because they sorely need the agility, and the weight savings from the XL lets me put bigger engines in and still have room for more weapons and armor, sure with only STD engines they're technically less prone to being instagibbed since the engines are smaller (but heavier) but what the fuck do I care I want my lights to avoid being hit at all not to survive being blown in half.

Why not just take off armor and have a Glass Cannon?

because then you have to contend with anti-infantry weapons, you need a balance of armor that forces the enemy to bring something meatier than a micro laser or MG to kill you, a balance of mobility that allows you to really frustrate the slower heavy hitters, and a balance of firepower that means the enemy can't just ignore you.

Idk, are there energy shields or something you could use? I'm not really the guy to talk to about tank builds, or really anything other than an aerial or glass cannon.

I don't think even starships in Battletech use shields, nevermind the mechs. Ferro Fibrous armor and Endo-Steel frames would help on weight savings but like the XLs they're really bulky and combined take away a LOT of room that would otherwise be used for ammo and weapons. Not to mention I'm not sure they'll make the cut either.

yup.
Endo Steel: "The orbital facilities that produced these weight-saving chassis were prime targets during the First Succession War, rendering the technology extinct in the Inner Sphere outside of the halls of ComStar by the Second Succession War. "
Ferro-Fibrous Armor: "First developed by the Terran Hegemony in 2571,[3] Ferro-Fibrous armor was lost to the Inner Sphere during the Succession Wars. The Draconis Combine was the first to re-create it in 3040."

mods break the TA steam install it seems...
So, today I did more missions, set up a market alt with one hell of a Wreath, did more bookmarks (perches, safespots), moved my instadock closer to the station, and surprisingly ran into no-one.

From what I can tell, I'm actually in Faction Warfare Lowsec, deep in Minmatar sovereignty, which means nobody's here, and nobody cares until Amarr pushes them all the way back.

Okay so Windows 8+ (including 10) breaks the hell out of Total Annihilation mods, however Windows 8 hotfixes for these mods also work for Windows 10.
