    I assume you mean Mechspecs is a Min/Max site. I understand that. But there's min/max the way Mechspecs does it and there's Min/Max the way douchebags do it. The subtle difference is that here at Mechspecs we look for the most viable builds for every chassis/variant. Douchebags identify the top 3-5 cheese builds in the game and never run anything else.

    And yeah, weight limits would breathe a lot of life into the game. I agree.

    By the way...

    I don't hate FRR but I think it is weird PGI decided to put them in MWO. They're barely worth mentioning and barring some "alternate timeline" changes they're going to get slammed before we have Community Warfare.

    But all the FRR guys I've talked to have been nice and fuck the clans, so best of luck to the Space Vikings.

    I wonder why there is so much hate for the Capellan Confederation.

    I guess that would be following the canon and then a sprinkle of dislike of all things Goon.

    ... Shit, can I revote? I voted Kurita not reading the post and thinking it was a "favourite faction" poll D:

    Well, if I were to ACTUALLY vote, I'd have to say FRR, Liao, and Marik.

    FRR because they're unrefined scum, Liao because... yeah, and Marik because their paint is obnoxious.

    I guess many voted against Liao/Capellan Conf. because they were supposed to be the strongest house during the Invasion of the Clans. It's simply ENVY. Read the books.
    If you had brains you would join House Liao at first. All the dudes here saying Liao Pilots are dumbasses, maybe you never met the good ones. Take me for example. :p

    Maximilian Liao's Successor Sun Tzu Liao revolutionized the world system with Operation Xin Sheng. With the help of Thomas Marik 19 (!) planets which were lost to the enemies could be reconquered. During this time new Battlemechs with completely new Design & Technology (e.g. Stealth) were fabricated. You know the powerful & popular Cataphract (best Mech in MWO) already and maybe heard of the legendary Sha-Yu.

    http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Category:Capellan_Confederation_BattleMechs

    You hate Liao? You must also hate the Cataphract and all other epic Liao Mechs (e.g. the Lu Wei Bing - the Big Brother of the Victor but with ECM and a dreadful LBX-AC20!). You must also hate the Star League and hate the fact that without House Liao the War against the Clanners would be even more desperate.

    Accept the fact that Liao's one of the better Houses. If you hate them then you don't really know Battletech. Or you must be a Clanner! Hehehe

    Besides Liaos are mostly buddhists. So how can someone hate buddhist warmonks?? Dumbasses

    How are the Blakists not first...? All the joy of hating Comstar & the Clans (Clan Wolverine at least)... they used nukes and were just horrific.... made the clan invasion look like a family reunion in comparison.....

    Sir, I beg to disagree.
    But since we're gentlemen I won't hire ninjas to hang you with your guts as your blasphemy would had require. I'll just send you an obnoxious picture of my obnoxiously painted obnoxious mech :p
