Turn 3 firing results posted. Some high/low-lights:
- Pinhead has reclaimed the lead due to a continued slugfest in the upper left qaudrant
- PaWeasley can't seem to stay on his feet (and here I thought that would be Pinhead's issue)
- What exactly is Chunga doing?
- Hey, look everyone, there's still a 'Mech with no damage (chihawk) and we're onto turn 4!!!
- We now know a Black Knight cannot go toe-to-toe with a Banshee
- Speaking of the Banshee, that thing has a crap-load of armor
Things are getting dicey damage wise for a few of you. Onto another round.

That's OK it seems we have a Stinger that decided to interject himself into our fight. Mommas don't teach their younguns not to interfere in a man's fight!

- Hey, look everyone, there's still a 'Mech with no damage (chihawk) and we're onto turn 4!!! - He is a pussy!
- We now know a Black Knight cannot go toe-to-toe with a Banshee - I knew that when the game started...
- Speaking of the Banshee, that thing has a crap-load of armor - I believe the word you are looking for there is HAD,, HAD a crap load of armor...
Things are getting dicey damage wise for a few of you. Onto another round.- That's what happens when a Black Knight and Banshee go to to toe... One will eventually win, but he staggers out of the fight. |

Hey, hey, hey, quoting you from last game  :
"Grow some balls and man up!
If you get a clean shot at a (enemy mech) and you don't take it, you deserve to lose.
Never give up, Never surrender! "

Turn 4 firing results posted. Some high/low-lights:
- Pinhead remains on top of the leader board
- chihawk still has no damage
- PaWeasley found out how bad forgetting to submit any kind of movement can be, especially if you're prone facing off the map edge
- Lots of cooling down this turn, as not a single unit is above 4 heat
- Hey, I forgot there was a Mongoose!
With everyone at low heat, I expect some serious weapons fire this turn!

Still a member of the "fired and hit every turn of every game that has been played" club...are you a member of that club Pinny?

Based on movement, I full expect some people to be pretty darned hot after this turn!

Turn 5 firing results posted. Some high/low-lights:
- Stinger07 vaulted up the leaderboard by scoring almost 3x as many points as the next closest player
- Even with the above, Pinhead is still in the lead
- This also highlights how many points are still out there
- Pinhead is not that happy at the moment, but still quite formidable, even in his current situation
- Stinger07 may have scored all those points, but I bet he didn't end the turn all that happy
- Hey look, chihawk actually took some damage!
- And hey, is that a Mongoose actually dishing some damage out?

They're afraid of you now. Either that or the whole "best target available" mantra!

| Obviously they are very frightened of me. They are running away in my direction.

A couple of things...
First, I just added the award to the game page that Stinger07 has graciously offered up, yet again! The winner of this game will receive a 3D printed Vulture III miniature. After having received a Flea from him, I can assure you they look really freaking cool! So thank you Stinger07 for offering this once again.
Second, a couple of you may have noticed that Pinhead made a run with a gyro and never made a second PSR at the end of his turn. This was a mistake on my part, mostly due to how we've always played the rule, and me simply being an idiot. After speaking with Stinger07 (whom this impacts the greatest), I've decided to let the move stand as is with no roll at the end.
In the future, a player running with a gyro hit will be required to make the normal roll at the end of the move phase. The only exception to this will be if they are prone and run to stand. If that is their only action, they will be required to make a single roll only, and not one for standing and a second for running. Having read the rule, I think it's absolutely stupid a 'Mech with just one leg only needs to make a single roll when standing, but a 'Mech with a gyro hit and two perfectly fine legs needs to make two.
Hope everyone's having fun!
