 Posted: 26-Jan-2005 10:43 Post subject: Pimp My Mech |
  |
|
For Anyone who isn't familiar with the Mtv show "Pimp my Ride".. http://www.mtv.com/onair/dyn/pimp_my_ride/series.jhtml?_requestid=82280
The basic Idea is that a scrapped out old mech has been brought into be Revamped into something fantastic.
The Mech to be remade is a
Locust LCT-1V which has obviously been through heavy service in the 35 years It has been deployed with the kells hounds before being sold to a teenage boy on solaris for twenty thousand cbills. It arrives in the workshop with a heavily damaged gyro, a fusion engine prone to suprise shutdowns, its weapons stripped and Patchwork armour which only covers part of the torso and one leg. everything about this mech can be changed, but it must remain essentially a locust.

So do we get bonus points for creativity? Any sort of cost limit on this? Will this be used on solaris?
Just clearing things up before jumping the gun on this.
Thinking lots of chrome, lowered chassis, shag interior.... (I MIGHT be joking)

I was thinking of dropping the fusion engine for a 160 chevy big block V-24! With chrome pipes sticking out the back. Painted candy apple red with black pinstriping.

Definatly a solaris mech, bonus points for creativity, and the cost pactically irrelevant vbecause the show is sponsored by mtv heavy industries

Ok, before anyone makes a comment... Yes I've been watching a lot of Megas 
BattleMech Technical Readout
Type/Model: Locust Torian
Tech: Inner Sphere / 3060
Config: Biped BattleMech
Rules: Level 3, Custom design
Mass: 20 tons
Chassis: Bergan VII Endo Steel
Power Plant: 160 LTV Fusion
Walking Speed: 86.4 km/h
Maximum Speed: 129.6 km/h
Jump Jets: None
Jump Capacity: 0 meters

Communications System: Garret T-10B

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
==Overview:==
Torian\'s Locust is by far the most showy looking 20 tonner ever built. Sky
blue with black piping, flames, and 8-balls (flaming 8-balls at that) for a
paint scheme the outside attracks a lot of attention. However the special
cockpit with all its perks is where the best part of this bad boy is. Inside
the ton and a half cockpit that takes up all the free space inside the head is
wall to wall shag, 7.1 surround sound stereo system with 20 disc mini-disc
player, DVD-200 tied into the 2 cockpit display screens, leather command
couch, mini-fridge full of whatever choice drinks Torian currently fancies
along with some good cold chow, a mildly spacious bed running across the
backside of the cockpit, tinted view ports, massage machines built into the
command couch, and last but not least... the pin up poster of Torian\'s
sweetheart.
==Capabilities:==
==Battle History:==
==Variants:==
==Notable \'Mechs & MechWarriors:==
Eric Torian is the only one to ever pilot this mech, aside from his
personal tech that is.

Type/Model: Locust X LCT-X
Tech: Inner Sphere / 3025
Config: Biped BattleMech
Rules: Level 3, Standard design
Mass: 20 tons
Chassis: Bergan VII Composite
Power Plant: 160 Hermes XL Fusion
Walking Speed: 86.4 km/h
Maximum Speed: 129.6 km/h
Jump Jets: 4 Swingline X-1000 Standard Jump Jets
Jump Capacity: 120 meters
Armor Type: 1/Star Slab Light Ferro-Fibrous
Armament:
2 Sunglow Prism-Optic Small Pulse Lasers
2 Ramtech 1500Z ER Medium Lasers
Manufacturer: Bergan Industries
Location: (Unknown)
Communications System: Garret T-10B
Targeting & Tracking System: O/P 911
==Overview:==
Probably one of the most radical refits in the long and
glorious history of refits, the Locust X is almost an
entirely new 'mech.
==Capabilities:==
Swapping out the LTV 160 engine for the Hermes XL 160,
the Locust X saves enough space to support a suite of
jump jets. Replacing the standard internal structure
with Composite material allows for a maximum load of
Light Ferro-Fibrous armor. For firepower, the Locust X
sports twin Sunglow Prism-Optic Small Pulse Lasers, one
each in the arms, replacing the old machine guns, as well
as a pair of fire-linked Ramtech 1500Z Extended Range
Medium Lasers. The addition of Double Heat Sinks allow the
Locust X to sustain its punishing barrage of energy
weaponry indefinately if it has to.
