No Tankettes are a type of armored fighting vehicle used in the 30s characterized by generally being lighter, cheaper, and smaller than even the light tanks of the time, thus warranting their own designation.

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.
Truly minmatar winmatar. Blap somebody with a stabber for me.
Unfortunately, #nomedal*. Amarr is holding on quite well in it's current state. Not retaking any systems, but not losing any either. Also I can't blap with a Stabber because I'm Gallente, as revealed by the fact that I fly a Vexor. Also, everyone says Ruptures are better.

*Yes this is a real thing and FW players are saying it constantly.

The quality of ruptures is irrelevant when you can say "I stabbed that guy with my stabber"

Also I'm pretty sure deep in winmatar space you'll need to train up some more appropriate ship skills.

I'm deep in FW space, not Empire. Plus I'm near Hek.

Sure it's 0.5, sure it's in backwater Minmatar space, but it's just as safe as Jita (which isn't saying much).

Total Mayhem for Total Annihilation community patch 9.6...oh boy this thing is a doozy.
Basically some enterprising modder looked at all the shit SupCom did and said "I bet TA could do it better" so he added a third tech level, overhauled the UI, added a whole new type of units (walkers, not to be confused with Kbots) and added new structures and units to every category to fill out a few neglected niches (naval commanders rejoice! Underwater Mohos!).
Total Mayhem also assumes you have a very modern machine and that vanilla TA is a drop in your bucket of computational resources because it cranks the paltry 250 unit limit up to a concerning 1500 and removes the 3 AI limit for offline matches allowing full 5v5s.
The actual units added are indeed ambitious enough to give SupCom a run for it's money with giant fusion power complexes, nuclear bombers, hovering fortresses, and our dear friend Krogoth being given a proper rival, however they never seem to blend with the vanilla units as seamlessly as advertised, with the exception of those that recycle bits of vanilla models, in gameplay the new units seem to outshine the vanilla units or be hopelessly niche.
Of course vanilla content isn't untouched, both Commanders and several other units have new or modified sprites and the economy has been tweaked to be much harder on your metal production to encourage rapid expansion, thankfully it provides tooltips for constructors that shows their average metal consumption while working.
All in all Total Mayhem doesn't QUITE meet it's bold claim of making it feel like cavedog never stopped supporting the game but it's ambition nonetheless breathes new life into a 20 some year old game.

Holy Jesus I built the experimental capital ship and I'm just sitting here thinking that there is no way this much firepower isn't against the Geneva Convention.

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

RIP literally every light mech and the Dragon.


FUUUCK.

Like no seriously.  That's the WORST period of battletech history for me.   Where everything was ONLY about armor and more guns.  The assault/heavy mech race.  Where lights and often mediums were laughed at.  I WANT MY FUCKING MINI LASER BOAT DAMM'T  Uhhg...  Back to Owens/flea with a ripped out missile pod replaced with laser pods or LACs as my light.  yay...

Please for gods sake at least let me have the Ryoken as a heavy...

Well maybe we'll finally get to see a bit more glory for the poor tread-heads who get ignored a bit too often.  That's a thing at least.

The forums are very actively kicking around the idea of a clan invasion expansion pack as HBS has thankfully already said they want to make some.
