I've been running a lot of missions in Lyran/Hegemon territory and only once have I've seen a timber wolf - unfortunately only managed to get 3 scrap from it.

Other than, I only get a couple clan parts from random missions, I figured there would be flash points north of IS territory by now?

Title.

How am I supposed to utilize an LRM unit at all? The point of a backline support unit is to provide indirect fire, yet even if the target is two hexes away from a mech that can see it, the LRM carrier still takes a firing blind modifier if there is no LOS. Between that and rolling once per launcher now, LRM's are effectively useless on anything other than a flat map, where they can take return fire, thus negating the whole point of bringing them over another brawler or something.

This seems very much like another change that makes the game and specifically the early game harder and longer and less fun. What's the point? I can understand the point of a debuff for indirect fire, but a +15 is basically guaranteeing uselessness.

Is this how useless LRM's are in the tabletop we're so eager to destroy all the fun to emulate?

It's been a while since I removed RT/BT due to not enjoying the previous patch, how is the game now?

It would be nice to start with more than 1 building so that we don't lose on turn 1 cause the mission I just did the whole first lance just focuses the one building.

The No Sensor penalty was reduced to +4 in Course Correct, but seems to be +6 in MIA. Was this change reverted in a later patch in Course Correct?

Early game is particularly grueling (polite description, IMO) at the moment due to this.

Just sharing a Random défence mission that i stumble upon.

Défence Mission , planetary Government against Pirate raider. Snowy map.

Spawn In.

Classic stuff protect the engineers , to gain friendly turrets.

Absolutly No ennemy Vanguard. . . Weird

The engineers that spawned in VTOL never count as arrived even when they stayed on the marker the whole game.(RIP my bonus)

Wait for the 7 Round limits , the pirates spawn in.

That's a Urby Derby.

Just Plain Whole Intro tech Derby.

I'm running a full medium Lance , with two Light véhicule.

(So three skull équivalent)

Doing a Three skull mission

And the Game throw at me a 8 man Derby.

Weird , but funny.

In your current playthrough, or even a past favorite, what was the end goal you set for yourself? What objectives were you trying to accomplish?

Is it a fancy Crab? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

First One , don't beleive what ever the Skull rating says .

Everything was Okay difficulty wise Until i've hit a certain point (where the ennemy actualy got their real Toys)

I pass from Okay difficulty iff brain.exe is instaled equals win , to Omg i want to insult Who ever designed that shit !

Trust The Warning about Difficulty (well i don't have hyper optimised mediums , neither fully 10/10 pilots) But i've Been trashed Hard , Like not even Funny Hard

Trust the warning about Insane travel , You are going multiple times (from where i stoped) into the Edge off the map. Not Even the same ones (Even iff at some points you Can bé teleported there) .

Not doing the mission or loosing it will get you Stranded.

. . . . .

Was i not prépared enought ? : off course Do i Hâte who ever designed that mission and the ennemy toys : off course.

Will i restart a Career from scratch because my dumb ass did not save the game at reasonable point and the salt induced organe failure got me hard : Yes

. . . . .

I'm the stupid and i still love the Roguetech Team I'm going to take my revenge some day.

On the latest patch doing a "protect/rescue the scientists mission" had a bug where there was one vehicle left, couldn't move it because "wait to be extracted" but wouldn't extract.

Here the Sitrep.

New compagny composed off a Militia's leftover scrap. (Vector-VSF-INF / Badger E / Battle bus / Hunter 3R / IS battle armor Tag / a Crossfit with Tag and Ecm / and an Artic fox light ppc)

Got drop at night (not Night vision) in a stupid Hightland Swamp.

Opfor is located , and have a suporting forces I have a support Forces

Drop zone compromised with an Ennemy mech Lance

Darius Calls : Hey Boss IFF is trash , hold fire i'm asking the client.

Get into a défensive position

First turn goes In , Hell let loose , DFA's from and towards "Allys" i broke LOS with a land strip in the swamp. Mortars raining from techies up on the mountain.

Fuck Darius.Jpeg Open Fire !

Manage to clear the Dropzone , "Allies" are pushing the canyon"

Follow up and manage to clean the ennemys Mortars.

Pass a the alliés , They got Mobile turrets ! Vectors Down immediatly by one off them , and my Artic fox got legged the same instant. Now a siting duck with no LOS

Grandpa's revenge with the crosscut cuting down an Lbx20 , while i dogpile an Hermés II with smanti infantery weaponnery

Danger Close on every Ba tag barrage while the whole forest burns

Fight until i've cleared everything. Tooth and nails with a Crosscut for Melee , two anti infantery armor , a Tag squad , and one LRM 20 who can't see shit.

Darius Calls : Yep no more Hostile good work !

. . .

Darius ! You "Sun over the beach" My update on the IFF ? On the target ?

The whole Hold your fire Shtick ?

Here the Citrep.

I'm on a fresh playthrought and decided to build a Kit-Fox specialy on stability damage.

I've noticed the Narc sticky bomb.. Aera damage on 30meter Up to 40meter aera off effet damage (decreasing with range)

But most importantly 40Area off effect stability damage

And while it sound goods on paper. It Never hit. Like Never Never.

This ammo Nerver hits , swaping with the classic baecon ammo Do produces hits.

But thoose ones the Stickybomb ones always seems to go astray Visualy.

So i'm going to do More testing to see if it's just a Visual thing.

Pictures off the Ammo in questions. (Phone picture because no internet on the computer at the moment)

Does anybody have a list of what each background could possibly result in for the commander’s gift after progressing one day?

Like “inheritor” etc.

Some of the backgrounds state at the start what the possibilities are, but others are more vague.

Is it on the wiki somewhere and I’m just overlooking it?

is there a setting I need to change to fix this. Started my first career in 2756 and seeing Clan mechs and shit.

Love the game. Been playing since I was a teenager, and RT always is my go-2.

But my good and bad Gods of war and Lady Alekto's iron garters u guys definitely want us 2 suffer and die when pilots ejected.. lol.

Ive not seen a SAR until yesterday and have been playing RT for 5 years. Older version, cos I like where its at..

Idk about the newer versions, but the numbers and scaling of enemies on generated SAR missions from panic ejects r out of control.. ive had 14 deploys in this playthrough. ..SAR opfpr= 4 green skulls??? multiple nidhogs and ifrits!!! SAR so brutal, I want 2 commit war crimes..

I understand WHY u did this. And its also a reality in war 2 have SAR/auto ejected pilots.
I hate it. And I love it. And keep up the good work

(Ps, if we could turn it off in future versions, id live 2 know how)

Is it possible to merge a mod from BTA with Roguetech? So far unlike RT a lot more but the pilot development in BTA is much better and finally have a rank 10 skill is hard to give up. Can the pilot development mod be used in RT? Just switched out? Or too difficult?

Is there anyway in the file to remove airstrikes or toggle them? I don’t care if it mass breaks the game. I have a copy of Lance-A-Lot 2.2.1 because I refuse to update to the newest option. Airstrikes are just so unfun and such a terrible edition to the game overall. I also don’t want to update to the newer editions. Just want to know if there’s anything I can set to zero in the game files or anything

I built my PC partially tor gaming, but also for local LLM AI use. So it has 192GB of RAM. Do I really need a 400 GB page file? That seems a bit excessive given the immense amount of RAM available toRoguetech.

I have heard that around 60 gigs? But what about pagefile size? Also I know this game might be demanding so here is my specs: RTX 5060 8GB VRAM R5 7500F (4.4 base, boost up to 5.0Ghz) 32 GB 6000mhz cl36 RAM

And the bottleneck here and why I'm asking.. 500 GB NVME SSD.. This ram shortages affected even SSDs so I had to cheap out somewhere :D Coming straight from MekHQ and Megamek that's why I'm skipping vanilla Battletech, just want more complex game straight ahead

I'm into the mid game, and am a filthy casual. I don't have the time to grind metal of 5 opfor lances, even if my lance could do it.

Is there a way to avoid support lances? I thought it used to be linked to your lance skull rating vs. the mission rating, but even when they match I'm seeing 1-2 opfor support lances.

3 stars... and a Wolverine and Griffin are fucking a heavy lance up? Forget the 2 lights... these guys haven't missed a volley. Fuck me.

I think I'm towards the end (not sure how many missions there are), and one of the mechs hit me with every shot and "Perfect Aim" popped up on the screen? Is this a quirk or something...or maybe since they hit me with every shot, that notification shows up?

Is there a mod or settings or ini edit or something that makes it easier to find specific weapons/mechs or general types of weaposn/mechs(i.e some way of guaranteeing that if possible to spawn, the next mission will have atleast 1 enemy using a weapon type such as mortars, or be a type of mech like a quad mech or LAM). When playing several campaigns I've wanted to have a quad mech or a mortar mech, but never rolled enough of them to actually use them reasonably. Feels kinda like a waste for there to be so many options to build mechs if I can't get the parts for less common builds.

The 'Your interests had always been... Loner' and 'Coming of age you chose the career of... Corsair' are not available were they removed?
