The Barbell is one of the more unusual, if not innovative, Security Mechs to come into the market in recent years. The most notable feature of the Barbell is the use of Industrial TSM, allowing the 25-ton 'Mech to double it's lifting and striking strength. While armed with  dual Right Arm mounted MGs fed by a half-ton of ammo, these are not the true weapons of the Barbell, but rather it instead uses it's I-TSM to carry hefty loads of Handheld Weapons to greatly increase its firepower.

With it's I-TSM, 5-tons of payload is available. Most commonly a cluster of MGs, or a Medium Laser, SRMs etc. are used. Hazard Security Solutions sells an assortment of handhelds, and kits if customers have a specific taste, on the side.

Update: Heavy FF is listed as a Lyran Commonwealth prototype in 3056 according to ph 29 IOAE - theoretically this is possible, though it being available to the Draconis Combine and Capellans and Blakists wouldn't make sense then, and it should be listed as Experimental in MUL, no? Experimental rules level for 3058 at least

Nitpick noted and valid.  I am not sure what wob called it other than 3rd transfer.  If I get an actual name and go thru edits again, will make the change.

The XL Schrek PPC Carrier has heavy ferro fibrous armor which is listed as a 3069 invention but MUL shows availability in 3058. I had someone check RG32 to see if it actually has heavy ferro and that it's not a Sarna error.

It's just if this gets fixed I will be sad because the XL Schrek carrier had an Alpha Strike stateline I liked to use in faction restricted tournaments. That extra 2 inches of movement came in handy so often. Unlikely, but would I be able to get a 4/6 XL Schrek PPC Carrier with the same faction availabilities as the erroneous one except that it has regular ferrofibrous instead?

That is why I asked my first question to "overwatch" is a rule in TW now it is pretty clear you are not using that rule....  Quick question what size battlefields do you play one?  IE how many maps do you usually use?

We typically combined two of Catalyst's neoprene battle mats.

Both CeraVe and Cetaphil are respected brands in skincare, each with its loyal following.

CeraVe's emphasis lies in its ceramide and hyaluronic acid-rich formulas, which are designed to repair and maintain the skin's barrier function. This makes CeraVe particularly beneficial for those with dry, sensitive, or eczema-prone skin. Additionally, their MVE® Delivery Technology ensures continuous hydration, making their products a favorite among those seeking lasting moisture.
On the other hand, Cetaphil focuses on gentle, non-irritating formulations suitable for sensitive skin. While it may lack specialized ingredients like ceramides, its simplicity appeals to many. Cetaphil cleansers are especially praised for effectively removing impurities without stripping the skin, making them a go-to for those with delicate or acne-prone skin.
Ultimately, the choice between cetaphil vs cerave often boils down to personal preference and specific skincare needs. Some may prefer CeraVe's targeted formulations, while others may opt for Cetaphil's gentle approach. Experimentation and individual experience play key roles in determining which brand suits you best.
