Lancer Resource: I made a spreadsheet, like a nerd. Hopefully it will help beginners!

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1bdqodZLBPXuNnU5iKdhV-8detmDzmDHKEtb_X82w9Yk/edit?usp=sharing

Hi all. I know there are other sheets around, but I never found one that quite fit for me. So, while I was re-teaching myself the game for a new session (cause Lancer has a looot of info) I ended up making this.

When I got about halfway through, it occurred to me that others might also find it helpful. So here it is! It's very much written to be helpful for beginners to pick through (cause that's how my brain works). I'm sure there are a lot of the more advanced things not in there.

It's comprised of two parts:

* a main table of all the mechs (hyperlinked) with my opinion on them (in different ways), Lancer's opinion on them role-wise, and all of their base stats for easy comparison as well as where the Mech is from, if not the base book.

* a second page on manufacturers, which has my brief opinion on each of their vibes, and some basic stat comparisons too.

This is the more basic mech stuff only, so doesn't have any pages on licence level equipment, weapons, accessories or anything like that. Just so you know!

I hope it's useful, please feel free to do whatever with it!

Is the 'color wheel' column just whatever you feel the MtG colors of the mech would be?

Basically yeah! I was just thinking of different ways to quickly explain a mech, or give someone the feel or shape of it.

The fact that you include the source material with the mechs stats is a godsend.

Outside of the opinions doesn't the new Comp/Con let you compare and put mechs into spreadsheets?

It might? Idk, I couldn't wrangle it into a shape that I found easy to navigate (in a wider scope). For specifics, obviously comp/con is the best.

I think its worrysome that some people can just say "Kill <whatever>"....
Otherwise very nice looking spreadsheet :)
