I am not a certified munitions tech, and thus am forbidden from loading an "specialized rounds" that I made in my garage.

DO NOT use a Davy Crockett as balls in mech rugby matches.

I am not allowed to fight a trail of possession for world in a augmented rugby match with elementals.

Do not taunt the ice hellions, they tend to get upset, throw a temper tantrum get beaten, then not want to play anymore.

While cool, I am not allowed to hook up a ammo loader vehicle to my dual rotary 5 toting templar, and load it with nothing but tracers.

Plasma rifles are not a acceptable way to break up a riot.

If I think of somtehting , and giggle, i'm probaly not allowed to do it.   [soapbox]

That's actually due to the alcohol.

You didn't think I was going to try dancing in two tons of power armor while I was sober, did you?

Referring your assigned Battle Armor Squad as your ablative armor is not good idea.  Especially if your commanding officer is also a Battle Armor user.

This is why the Hellbringer II was made...obviously Elementals got some higher position in the Jade Falcons.

I am not allowed to forge my commanding s officer signature, to use a jump ship, commandeer 3 drop ships.  Then take my mech company, with some civilian volunteers to go across the border into jade falcon territory.  orbital drop onto a industrial complex, hold off the falcons while my dropships land, and my civilian volunteers, load sturmfers, allacorns, and demolishers left at the factory into the drop ships.   I am also not allowed to sell any of the tanks for personal profit, even if I sold only 4 out of the 30 we recovered.   
(this honestly happened in a ATOW, the regimental commander heard about this stunt, and wanted a significant share of the profits, he also was not sure weather to pin a medal on me, or send me to prison)

The COC does not care what I read in mechtech magazine, we have a budget, so requisitioning a refit for my blackjack, that involves light Ac/5's AES, a trageting computer, and a XL engine is NOT GOING TO BE APPROVED.

That hardly sound like sabotage, more like a good time.

I am no longer allowed to park my 'mech outside of the camp buildings and blare obscene sayings and references over my 'mechs PA system whenever a lower-ranking soldier exits a camp building. the laundry staff is mad at me about how many pairs of uniform pants need extra cleaning lately.
