Gah! What restrains you from using the PRIME in close combat? No min range! And the range bracket is so much more flexible! And that SSRM6 in the M has way too much ammo! No, you don't get to shuffle pods if you take a certain variant!
Oh no, there he starts again!  silly jymset....
Well, we have a making of a nice company here!
Mordel's Horde, March 2...ah...3005! (So, if Mordel doesn't show up, can anyone say what our illustrious leader would drive?)
Command Lance (in alphabetical order)
Oafman – Atlas
ralgith – Marauder
Assault Lance
bladewind – Hunchback
Warhammer: 3025 – Warhammer
Fire Lance
jymset - Blackjack
SaberDance – Whithworth
Vampire – Centurion
Wanallo – Centurion
Scout Lance
Motown Scrapper – Jenner
mud – Locust
Seraph – Locust
depending on which 'mech our wonderful master barkeeper wants, he'd go into either the command or scout lances!
chihawk – Clint/Grasshopper
Now, seeing as there may be future posters, a reinforced company seems in order! Thus far the Centurions are in the fire lance, but depending on what else we get we can shuffle them (and anything else) around at will, right?

My current ride is a Upgraded Chameleon. THough anything that jumps is always a good ride for me (especially if it moves at least 5/8/5).

Ugh  Don't even get me started on using a custom ride 
If we're doing that then my custom MAD-5Y-C Marauder. I think that'd be more of a bad ride than the MAD-5S I'm riding now

A little late, I'm afraid.
My ride is the Marauder. I'm good with most any non-Marik variant, as all the MAD-XMs seem to suck, but I prefer the 3D, 5D, or 5R. (Or custom.)
OOC: I've not put nearly as much thought into this role playing thing as SaberDance has (not in the same way, at least), so I think that's about as far as I'll take it.

Well, see, I didn't figure out that I could make new characters when the old one got old or died. So from the time I started playing (5 years old) to when my oldest brother went to college (11 years old) I always used the same character. Then I didn't get to play much until I was 15. At that point, I met another BTech player and we started doing dueiling. He was a big clanner, I was a big IS guy. So, to even the odds, I pulled my character out of the file and used my, by now elite, pilot against his green clanners.
Then he got MechCommander, and wanted to play it out on BTech. This was about the time I was playing around with the Awsome. Then I went back to the Whitworth my senior year in High School. Then nothing until I started an RPG my Sophomore year in College.
And now I GM mostly (cause I'm the only one organized enough to do it in my group, though that's changing).
I like the Horde.
P.S. Jymset, I'm used to leading Fire Lance, but I'll fight you for it... (Good naturedly, of course)

Hey, you lead away! I like being led into battle. Once in battle, I'm my fate's own master!

Well as Jymset said. I like Panthers. And along the same lines i like Vindicators. Especially if i need something a little heavier than a Panther.
Here in Mordel's my ride's a PNT-9K2, yes a custom design.
If i have to rake a heavier mech in the game, i'd choose the Penetrator for Heavies or the Thug for Assaults.
Clanwise, i'm a little Munchy.. i like the Turkina.

Well, we can add Erenon to the fire lance (making it a reinforced lance), with his PNT-9K2 Panther.

Well, here is a quick update. Shuffled quite a bit, and we have hit our 5th lance!
Command Lance
Illustrious Leader Mordel - ??????????????????????????
Beebles - Phoenix Hawk
ralgith – Marauder
Assault Lance
Oafman – Atlas
bladewind – Hunchback
Battle (?) Lance
StarRaven - Marauder
Warhammer: 3025 – Warhammer
Wanallo – Centurion
Fire Lance
Lance Commander SaberDance – Whithworth
Erenon - Panther
jymset - Blackjack
Vampire – Centurion
Scout Lance
Motown Scrapper – Jenner
mud – Locust
Seraph – Locust
*** Alexx Knight - really a Chameleon? Even in 3005?
*** Chihawk - you still need to pick your preference out of
*** Ruger, Vagabond, speak up! I know you both fancy a Dervish!!
*** Any others, please! Talen, if you drop by! Raven, if you lurk! Daphne? What about our ComStar Carl? I won't even begin to think of Old Dog.... Anyone!!!!
If anyone wants entry into another lance, or even wants to change their ride, please say so! I think SaberDance has made a good pledge for Fire Lance. And Mordel's.... well, Mordel's da boss!

I don't really care where I get put (as long as it's not the scouting lance ), as long as I get to pilot my "Titan"!
