I don't know what compelled somebody to make this, but it is based.
Speaking of the Urbie, what is the nittiest and grittiest we could get on its specifications? Was there ever a chronological era in BT it was any good?
A meta era? Enlighten me, Urbie bros.
Less a chronological era and more a geographical one: like most cheap light mechs, it becomes vastly more valuable the farther you get from the inner sphere.
More valuable because way out in the boonies having an actual Battlemech, any Battlemech, makes you the king shit of the local hill. Like, we're talking places where a fucking Charger-1A1 is basically an unstoppable man-controlled kaiju instead of something everybody makes fun of.
Way back when, FASA did pic relevant in an official release, using the edited pic for describing an in-universe event. It's became a running gag thanks to that, and the gag was revived when people got caught accidentally using the edited pic in actual history lessons.
urban combat.
no, that's it. era doesn't matter. it was literally made for an urban combat version of the game. that's partially why it's so slow - you could take damage by running into walls going too fast.
Why do Unionfags screech every time something remotely, slightly pro-Confederacy is posted? It's just a silly fantasy picture. The South won't rise again, so why fear anything like that?
Laughing about southerners dying to IEDs doesn't sound American. In fact I think Ive seen your shilling before in another thread where all you care about is Americans dying. Just saying you don't sound white.
Since when is the Confederacy politically incorrect?
Maybe if you're a silly yankee revisionist who is terrified of the world finding out that the north was just as racist, as the south...
Why are people so asspained about silly threads?
And its not just on PrepHole.

Anon the pretending to be retarded phase ended years ago, its now unironics thanks to the internet being easy to access.
Stuff like this always makes me wonder, how historic wars would change if you inserted a limited number of modern military gear (and their logistics chain) into it.
Like if Germany got a couple of modern tanks in WW1, sure they could push in literally any front, but they can only be in one place at a time.

Could be cool. Black powder canons yeeting shape charges at mechs and shit.

Probably the ones with a nuclear payload
Urbie IIC. Faster, with a UAC/10 and an ERSL

More valuable because most of the infrastructure for parts is closer to the core. The best Urbanmechs would be whatever Comstar has most likely.

Lore-wise, you should be able to find a bunch of bnc-3e banshees mothballed in the periphery.

I've always been a fan of PPC urbies. Gauss urbies are funny but a pain to run.

its also surprisingly well armored for a light mech
>Cringefederacy fantasy posting
How exactly is this weapons related? Extending Internet connections to every Hicksville was the biggest mistake
>How exactly is this weapons related?
Pregnant Anne Frank is 100% weapons related.
>guns of the south is not PrepHole
git PrepHole

They lose to rice and goat farmers and fear that the cotton farmers will start getting ideas.
Of course the confedaboo is a fifth columnist, probably not even American or white
luv me some humble farmers fighting off foreign oppressors

South invaded the North
Well Confederaboos love when Americans die so it shouldn't be a surprise
FBI bots. Unironically
they saw the funny confederate picture and missed the urbie.
or they're a bot.
Because they've been conditioned to virtue signal whenever they see anything that's even slightly politically incorrect.

I just want a urbie thread in PrepHole, anon
It's a cool thread anon, I appreciate it
Any more?

You can tell when someone is being retarded and when someone is being silly, or at least you should.

I think you could do quite a lot. The news of an impenetrable death machine trawling the battlefield could cause a whole front to collapse.
Fair enough, I kinda didn't think about the morale implications.
