I am looking to have information for a back up game this weekend. Is there anyone that has some Kurita Forces they would like to use?

I believe Reid has some Shiro and Scott P. has a Salamander that are under used. I would like to maybe get those into the backup I am working on. If I could get a list of Kurita mech's that people would like to use that would be great so I can work out a fight.

I have conflicting info on house mechs.  On Sarna.net it has the Salamander as a Lyrian Commonwealth so I painted it as a Lyrian. 

The following is what I have painted, decaled (?), and sealed.  They are ready to go.

So for Draconis all painted up and ready to go is Atlas, Cyclops, Hunchback, and Jenner.

FWL all painted and ready to go.....Apollo, Awesome, Buccaneer, Goliath, Grand Titan, Hunchback, Sarath, and Warhammer.

Capellean Confederation.....none that are ready to go, but a reinforced company primed.

Federated Suns......Atlas, Axman, Black Knight, Battlemaster, Caesar, Devastator, Firestarter, Grasshopper, Griffin, Hammerhands, Hatchetman, Longbow, Orion,  Osiris, Penetrator, Sagittaire, Shadow Hawk, Stalker, Stealth, Warhammer, and Wolverine.  Von Luckner tank.

Lyran........Banshee, Barghest, Bushwacker, Cudgel, Falconer, Salamander, Spector, Stalker, and  2 Thunderbolts.  

Also a Orion IIC painted in Davion greed, Buchwacker pimp mobile, and Mad Cat.

Salamander is a fairly widely used Chassis, so it can be slotted Kurita, just not a regular user. If I could go back in time I would knock a few a heads together.

At this time I need the following units brought for game play this weekend.

Scott P.
Barghest
Cudgel
Salamander

Reid
Kintaro
Shiro
Rokurokubi
Hitosume Koto
Shujenga
Hatamo Chi

Kevin with stuff he already knows to bring.

The year is 3140-ish. War has once again engulfed the Inner Sphere. Clanners like war, so a group of planets along the Rasalhague Dominion border decided the best thing to do was send war to the Dominion to keep them fighting at home instead of on their plants. A selected force of the Mercs, will have to execute a hot drop and secure an landing zone for the rest of the forces. This is the story of the hot drop and just how it turned out.

A battle value force of 30.6k will be attacking a battle value force of 19k. Both sides are bringing interesting items to the battle. Expect to see exotic weapon systems and the occasional kaboom. Lets just hope those who have to drop, land on their feet and not their heads. Battle Armor will be making an appearance for BOTH Sides!

Yeah, you lay down and wait for it to pass. No one in their right mind fights during an earthquake.

Earthquake
If a scenario takes place under such conditions, modify
movement and combat as follows.
When using the earthquake rules, assign a strength value
to the tremor, ranging from +1 (mild) to +5 (severe). Apply
this value as a to-hit modifier to any weapon or physical attacks
made during the same turn as the tremor. Additionally,
players must make a Piloting Skill Roll for each standing ’Mech
they control at the start of each Movement Phase during the
tremor. Apply a Piloting Skill Roll modifier equal to the strength
of the tremor. If the Piloting Skill Roll fails, the ’Mech falls and
takes damage per standard rules. If the Piloting Skill Roll result
equals 2, a fissure may open up beneath that ’Mech. Make a
second roll and check the Basements Table (see p. 179, TW)
to determine if a fissure opens and the sublevel of the fissure.
The ’Mech will fall into the fissure the same way it would fall
into a basement. Treat the fissure as a permanent map feature
of Sub-level 1 or Sub-level 2 for the remainder of the scenario.
Four-legged ’Mechs: For four-legged ’Mechs, the Piloting
Skill Roll modifier equals half the strength value of the tremor,
rounding down (their extra legs provide improved stability).
The standard –2 Piloting Skill Roll modifier for four-legged
’Mechs applies as well.
