Just make a bunch of jokes about being a Lyran such as this:
You might be a Lyran if you use PPC's as spotting lasers.
You might by a Lyran if you believe... http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Orca... Is where all R&D money should be headed.
You might be Lyran if a company of your mechs dropping causes a planet to shift out of alignment.

You might be a Lyran if you are infamous for stopping a battle in the middle for a mid-battle party.
You might be a Lyran if you are infamous for fighting your allies over a field kitchen.

You might be a Lyran if your daddy got you your regiment command.

You might be a Lyran if your junior techs are better versed in combat tactics than their commanding officer.

Fallen_Raven · « **Reply #12 on:** 13 September 2012, 18:54:46 »

You might be a Lyran if you have more tailors in your support staff than 'mech techs.

Actually it takes big balls to be a Lyran. (Dark Shadows reference there...) ;)

You might be a Lyran if your Assualt weight battalion is held up for 7 months by a kid with a BB gun on the first planet you have landed on in the new offensive.

Fallen_Raven · « **Reply #16 on:** 18 September 2012, 15:58:36 »

You might be a Lyran if your light infantry battalions all have Heavy Gauss Rifles.

FedRatCowboy · « **Reply #17 on:** 18 September 2012, 22:23:48 »

You might be a Lyran if your going to basic training with your personel chef, massuse, chauffer, butler, et all.

You might be a Lyran if your catering budget exceeds your munitions expenditure budget.

SethsMatches · « **Reply #19 on:** 19 September 2012, 10:38:34 »

You might be Lyran if the only uniform you've ever worn, or ever considered wearing, is your dress uniform.

Notsonoble · « **Reply #20 on:** 04 October 2012, 20:59:38 »

If you consider the Commando as light battle armor....

you might be a lyran.

Fallen_Raven · « **Reply #21 on:** 06 October 2012, 15:12:06 »

You might be a Lyran if you consider an A/C 20 secondary weaponry.

Vash The Stampede · « **Reply #22 on:** 07 October 2012, 19:03:22 »

You might be a Lyran if your Warhammer overheats after one combat phase (Ken Roos MWDA warhammer IIC stats anyone?)

Minemech · « **Reply #23 on:** 13 October 2012, 19:12:20 »

If your cockpit has a massage feature.

You might be a Lyran if you have campaign medals from dinner parties.

You might be a Lyran if you consider having your aide move your drinks cabinet six inches closer the objective a succesful advance. (Ta to Blackadder)

You might be a Lyran if you found out how to put 5 Ultra-AC 20s in a 'mech. (Did that in SSW.)

Possible only using Clan tech, and not easy. I was only able to fit 7 tons of ammo on it, giving 3.5 rounds of fire, or 7 at single shot.

Amusing, intimidating, but very impractical.

Diamondshark · « **Reply #29 on:** 08 December 2012, 22:23:08 »

Park that thing around the corner of a heavy city. Surprise! :D

VF1LAM · « **Reply #30 on:** 09 December 2012, 08:21:50 »

You might be a Lyran if you ever worked out at a Scandinavian health club or on a NordicFlex in the basement.

Or would that make you Rasalhagian?

Molossian Dog IIC · « **Reply #31 on:** 05 February 2013, 14:46:41 »

You might be a Lyran...

...if this is the Mech you would like to ride.

(scroll down!)

(further!)

(what did I just tell you?)

GreekFire · « **Reply #32 on:** 05 February 2013, 14:56:21 »

That's the most beautiful Lyran mech I've ever seen.

Molossian Dog IIC · « **Reply #33 on:** 06 February 2013, 05:07:57 »

Then you might have a small Lyran inside you!

(I´d say somewhere in your bowels. You see, you can get infected pretty easily. Just touching the wrong doorknob suffices to have that ugly little parasite nesting in your intestines.)

Sabelkatten · « **Reply #34 on:** 06 February 2013, 05:25:41 »

You might be Lyran if... You don't think it's a real mech unless it has an UAC/20 or a HGR.

Done it with the Shadow Hawk, Wolverine and Griffin. Working on the Phoenix Hawk... 8)

ArcaneRaven · « **Reply #35 on:** 08 February 2013, 06:50:49 »

You Might be a Lyran, if you consider to sacrifice a battalion or two to move your front bar a few inches towards your enemy's capital.

Dakkagor · « **Reply #36 on:** 09 April 2013, 08:33:48 »

You might be a Lyran if. . . .

You consider the Devastator a 'heavy trooper'
. . .And the Zeus a 'trooper'

You sleep with the 3055 and 3058 TRO under your pillow.

If you want to take a MASH unit in a campaign, just to convert it into a field mobile officers bar. (surely I should get some kind of morale/piloting bonus from that!)

You tried to build a three long tom mech in Solaris Skunkworks for 'direct fire support at medium to long ranges'

You the applied experimental tech to that mech and it STILL didn't work.

You have more medals than rounds of ammo in your bins.

Col.Hengist · « **Reply #37 on:** 17 April 2013, 12:47:05 »

The Zeus is a trooper...

If you have the regiment fire their autocannons in time with the 1812 overture while drinking cognac and smoking a fine cigar at a masquerade ball.

Fallen_Raven · « **Reply #38 on:** 17 April 2013, 16:23:50 »

If you've ever attempted to mod a Mjolnir's mace into a stein.

If you want rules for Unicron so you can finally have a decent low end Medium 'Mech.

VF1LAM · « **Reply #39 on:** 21 April 2013, 18:15:54 »

You want a Long Tom Mobile Rifle System that can be carried concealed.

You are the type of Social General who likes beer and blonde-haired bikini babes. [NOT Canopian Catgirls]

You want to upgrade your bug 'Mechs to Wolfhounds and Phoenix Hawks, which you still consider low-end light 'Mechs.

Diamondshark · « **Reply #40 on:** 21 April 2013, 20:20:15 »

You might NOT be a Lyran if you call Wolfhounds and Phoenix Hawks "low-end light mechs," as opposed to REAL low-end light mechs, like Awesomes and Zeuses.

Neither are low end lights. One is a top end light and one is a low end medium...

Okay, Warhammers and Crusaders then.
