The cadets at Frihet Training Academy mutinied in 3071. The Kungsarme was cycled around based on how they reacted. I forget what the 3rd Drakøn did.
Doesn't appear to have affected them at all, according to Sarna.
Sounds like a good force make up. Look at Supernovering the tank Trinary rather than the 'Mechs. You are not running a lot of Omnis and that is where your Tyrs are.
Considering how painfully mobile said 'Mechs are, especially by 3145, yeah. Okay, so three vanilla 'Mech trinaries, one aero binary, one vehicle trinary supernova. Fortunately, AFVs come two per point so I can mix in transports with gunboats in each star.
I hate that add an ax rule. If you are targeting post 3080 just bite the bullet and take a few Karhus Primes to complement your Axmen and Berserkers. Without TSM your physical combat ability won't be a priority anyway. Heck, even in 3145 when you are running Combine surplus in the role the close quarter 'Mechs are just distractions from the Vikings, Mad Dogs, and Hueys bringing the rain.
Eh, the axe rule is a "may equip" rather than a requirement, but it's a fun little permission in the rules to go customize 'Mechs. The RATs in 3145 were fantastically mobile, and out of 45 'Mechs all but five had jump jets, which happened to be the DCMS and LCAF 'salvage' options. So fast, heavy mobile warfare with gigantic piles of LRMs, especially Clan LRMs, and then just charge. I'll throw bones on the '85 RATs just to see what happens for giggles sake, again more to get a snapshot of the build concept than an actual THIS AND THAT. Also all the really cool RasDom mechs are assaults, waah.
You don't need Shilone Cs. Ammon 2s are your bird. They must be as common as dirt after the Leviathan program. As noted before look to Huscarls, they got a Clantech variant. Look to Seydlitz and Sholagars for your IS lights. RATs will give you Clantech. Shilones and Ammons.
Yeah, but at least right up through 3067 the Holy Valkyrie squadron (best name ever) refused everything but Shilones, even "repeatedly" turning down Huscarls. It's a Tyra Miraborg thing. Granted, by the time of the RasDom it's a case of "the Clan demands it." Now, I don't have any experience with aero, especially in support on the ground map, so I'm wide open there.
