L180[23:01:29] <Solar_Oracle> You should only attempt cryogenic suspension with the assistance of trained medical professionals.
L181[23:01:56] <Mat2ch> raptop: what A/C? It's uncommon to have an A/C here!
L182[23:02:05] <raptop> Anyway, it was at least 85 F outside earlier
L183[23:02:08] <Mat2ch> We are sweltering, slowly cooking in our own soup
L184[23:02:14] <Solar_Oracle> If you experience nausea, headaches, heartburn, indigestion, uncontrollable bowel movements and death, you may be experiencing symptoms of Cryogenic Suspension sickness.
L185[23:02:20] <raptop> (~29.5 C)
L186[23:02:36] <Mat2ch> we had something like 35° outside
L187[23:02:42] <Mat2ch> so, uh, almost 100 F?
L188[23:02:43] <Solar_Oracle> Oh, wait, I thought you were talking degrees KELVIN.
L189[23:02:57] <raptop> uh, like 95ish
L190[23:03:00] * Mat2ch throws some Cs at Solar_Oracle
L191[23:03:11] <Solar_Oracle> 95 degrees? That's still pretty co- oh, right.
L192[23:03:20] * raptop mutters something about how the unit has been "kelvins" for decades
L193[23:03:24] <Mat2ch> plus > 50 % humidity
L194[23:03:35] <raptop> I guess you could do degrees rankine
L195[23:03:38] <Solar_Oracle> I just use a cooling jacket, like in BattleTech.
L196[23:03:50] <Mat2ch> I'd like to have a space suit.
L197[23:04:09] <Solar_Oracle> Degrees Kelvin*s* sounds like you're measuring temperature by using multiple dudes named Kelvin.
L198[23:04:30] <Mat2ch> It should be much more energy efficient to just cool me down and not the whole room.
L199[23:04:33] <Solar_Oracle> "One degree Kelvin is equivalent to the body temperature of one Kelvin."
L200[23:04:47] <Solar_Oracle> Mat2ch I jest, but they do use cooling vests in some contexts like AFVs.
L201[23:05:18] <Mat2ch> anyways, I'm going to take a shower and try to sleep
L202[23:05:40] <Mat2ch> I hope it will be the first and last heat wave this year. But I fear for worse.
L203[23:06:08] <Solar_Oracle> BattleTech had full suits, but the factories all got obliterated and vests got used instead. MechWarriors of the Succession Wars period often ended up wearing absolutely nothing more than their cooling vests and NeuroHelms, going commando as it were.

L205[23:07:04] * raptop considers that there's a light mech named the commando
L206[23:07:44] <Solar_Oracle> And the one with 10 SRM tubes is a literal pain in the backside.
L207[23:08:14] <Solar_Oracle> It's like having a sprinting midget with a shotgun run circles around you.
L208[23:09:24] <raptop> shotgun... like an LB-X autocannon?
L209[23:09:57] <Solar_Oracle> Oh, no, short-range missiles. There aren't many light 'Mechs with autocannons
L210[23:10:15] <Solar_Oracle> SRMs spread like a shotgun, though, and they're twice as powerful as an LRM per missile.
L211[23:10:42] <raptop> ah
L212[23:11:51] <Solar_Oracle> The only light 'Mech that has a stock version with an LB-X that I can think of off the top of my head is one of the Puma variants.
L213[23:12:17] <Solar_Oracle> Which, gulp, comes with a LB-X 5 and an ER Large Pulse Laser.
L214[23:12:47] <Solar_Oracle> Aside from Urbies, of course.
L215[23:13:39] <raptop> hrm
L216[23:13:45] <Solar_Oracle> But their whole shtick is mounting a giant honking gun on a trashcan with legs.

L218[23:13:50] ChanServ sets mode: +v on eriophora
L219[23:14:07] <raptop> The urbanmech sounds like it's impersonating a tank-destroyer
L220[23:14:38] <Solar_Oracle> Ah, but UrbanMechs also have 360 degree torso twist and jumpjets!
L221[23:15:01] <Solar_Oracle> Tank Destroyers also tend to be fast. UrbanMechs are whatever the opposite of fast is.
L222[23:15:23] <raptop> hm
L223[23:17:28] <Solar_Oracle> So cute https://cfw.sarna.net/wiki/images/5/5d/Urbanmech_2.jpg
L224[23:18:10] <Solar_Oracle> There's actually a level in BattleTech 2018 where you fight with a lance of nothing but UrbanMechs against two other lances of UrbanMechs.
L225[23:18:40] <raptop> All about positioning, I guess
L226[23:18:51] <Solar_Oracle> If your MechWarriors are pretty high leveled, it becomes a hilariously brief slaughter as you can quickly core or leg the others.
L227[23:19:53] <Solar_Oracle> Be careful, though, not to jump on to a building that's about to collapse. Or, in other worse: Be careful to shoot buildings out from underneath 'Mechs so that they'll collapse.
L228[23:20:42] * raptop would be worried that urbanmechs would suddenly start acting like a toyota hilux and survive the fall
L229[23:21:03] <Solar_Oracle> They can survive one fall, but you won't survive another fall.
L230[23:21:41] <Solar_Oracle> I've had that happen plenty of times, where AI controlled 'Mechs have gotten fall damage and decide to jump on another building that gets 40 LRMs for its trouble.
L231[23:22:06] <raptop> hah!
L232[23:22:14] <Solar_Oracle> Extra hilarity ensues when they also receive a fatal number of injuries as a result of falling so many times.
L233[23:22:27] <raptop> wait, 40 LRMs... did you have a pair of timberwolves or something?
L234[23:22:47] <Solar_Oracle> Oh no, some versions of the Catapult and Archer comes stock with 2x LRM-20 launchers.
L235[23:22:53] <raptop> ah
L236[23:23:18] <Solar_Oracle> You can also cheese out other 'Mechs into missile boats, especially the Stalker and the made-for-the-game Bullshark, which really is a proto Mad Cat.
L237[23:23:47] <Solar_Oracle> There's even a level with a one-off Stalker with 3 LRM-20 launchers, making it an LRM Carrier with legs and better armor.
L238[23:26:18] * Solar_Oracle spits out beverage
L239[23:26:26] <Solar_Oracle> THREE maxed out LRM-20s!
L240[23:26:38] <Solar_Oracle> I don't care if they're 1.2 million C-Bills apiece!
L241[23:31:50] * raptop doesn't recall how much mechs cost, presumably that's still less than a new urbanmech?
L242[23:39:34] <Solar_Oracle> Yeah.
L243[23:39:46] <Solar_Oracle> Though an UrbanMech can be as little as 1/10th the cost of an Inner Sphere Assault 'Mech.
L244[23:39:58] <Solar_Oracle> And 1/20th the cost of a Clan Assault 'Mech.
L245[23:40:23] * raptop gets the impression that the clans have larger industrial bases, though
L246[23:44:56] <Solar_Oracle> Not necessarily, especially as it concerns civilians.
L247[23:45:44] <Solar_Oracle> Their military industry had to start from scratch in the Clan Homeworlds, but they had technical documents and personnel that would've been incinerated in the 1st and 2nd Succession Wars.
L248[23:46:54] <Solar_Oracle> But consumer goods and the like were of secondary importance at best, and civilians were almost never provided with representation in government as was often the case with individual Inner Sphere worlds.
L249[23:47:43] <Solar_Oracle> I have no doubt some Periphery nations (particularly the Magistracy of Canopus) have it better off in terms of standard of living than any of the Clan Worlds outside the Ghost Bear Dominion.
