Rare Engine Rating Challenge
« on: 25 February 2011, 11:17:20 »
Design a vehicle. It must go more than 1/2. It must use an engine rating that is:

  • Not usable by any legal BattleMech design
  • Nobody else has used yet
(The easy ones to find are prime numbers multiplied by 5.) GOGOGOGO! ;)
President-designate of the Dead World Collective. We control more worlds than any faction since the Star League!
Khan of Clan Iron Elephant. We remember. And if you know who we are, we're going to have to make you disappear.
I'm a numbers guy. Please don't tempt me to do the math, I just might.

265 used here, for a rapid-response skirmisher.   RAC/5 for high burst damage, decent range.  In case of jam, run the hell away and unjam.
