Titan Designs
Here's a design I have made that I use a lot:
This design is meant as support. I find he does very well at that. He wasn't made to take anything close. If it has to it can use physical attacks close range on recons, and outrun anything else. I often put inexperienced pilots in it and get them to hit targets when they're down.

RE: Titan Designs
Couple of comments:
You can remove 1mm of armor from the RT/LT and RL/LL, it won't change the AP count. You can then add +1mm (which means +1AP) to the RA/LA.
You can also cut the armor in the CBT in half, as this is a LR titan, and you only have the flares there. No need to waste tonnage on that. With that freed tonnage, you can do a number of things; especially if you free even more tonnage, like swapping armor in the arms from T to V (no HR there), and/or decrease the BC to 5. Either increase LS by 1 (or even 2 with other changes), or up the scanner by 1 (better chance to get the +4/+8% to hit), or even add a SRM4 rack to the CT (with the risk it carries...) for some C/SR firepower, or add more ammo to the arm LRM racks, or add more armor to the arms (since you use them for punches in HtH); or any combination of those, you'll know what suits your style best.
Anyways, hope it helps a bit.

RE: Titan Designs
Good points. You are quite observant as always. I usually catch things like that. I have two others of my own that I use a lot, but I need to post them when I have time. For now, here are the updates based on your suggestions. I really am not too interested in this one getting too close, so I prefer a larger scanner, and he certainly has the weapons for it. Also, since this is designed for a rookie style pilot, it is better that all his shots have a better chance of hitting, than it is for him to have more shots to fire. Do you follow me?

Updated Lightfoot shown above. It is better to increase his Heat Reg with the extra weight he had so that he has a chance of moving and firing at the same time. Thanks Larkin for showing me how to do these printouts quicker!

RE: Titan Designs
I had to modify the text file manually. I can't figure out how to "force it" to print a new version.

RE: Titan Designs
Thanks LarkinVB, I learned something new today! [:)]
Here is another design I use. It is particularly for Polar boards. I think it's a good idea to have a few on hand that can take advantage of the heat savings of a polar board, or others that can deal with the heat of the Core. This one is largely energy based, which is good to take advantage of in the cold. Even with the cold environment, he still needs the biggest heat regulator to dissipate the energy. Usually the larger titans have a shield, and he carries cannons to deal with that. He relies on his armor rather than devoting precious energy to shields. I often find that Assault titans lack the range they need. They can not catch up to their prey, so they must be able to knock them down from afar.

RE: Titan Designs
ORIGINAL: Ghstbear
Also, since this is designed for a rookie style pilot, it is better that all his shots have a better chance of hitting, than it is for him to have more shots to fire. Do you follow me?
Hmm, depends. If 20 shots is usually enough for you in a battle, I could agree (not necessarily I would). If you could use more, then more ammo certainly is better, since you're trading a bit more (possible) accuracy for more attempts at getting XP; besides, the lower your CtH, the more XPs you get if you hit [;)]
Of course, it also depends on the improvement your scan time gets. If the scanner 1 is already enough to scan in the cycle time of the LRMs, then the scanner 3 is not so appealing. Considering it's for rookie jocks, it might actually be mostly a waste.
As for the SRM rack, not using it means that if you do get to a fist fight, you'll be wasting most of your heat reg potential, since you won't be firing the LRMs...
Those were just suggestions though.
As for the Polar Bear, again I think you can shave off 1mm from those locations with 105mm [:'(] Also, for polar maps? With such a high heat dissipation? Seems like a waste, especially because it has no shield. The only real heat intensive weapon is the PG. The FTs aren't too polar friendly either, their effect is mitigated. The armor is ok-ish for an assault, though even heavies can have these levels (M provides little thickness).
Haven't built the design though, just observations. I'm guessing there are no more free slots, the titan being underweight. Maybe another chassis would allow you to take advantage of those 4 tons left.

RE: Titan Designs
As always, I thank you for your input Thorgrim.
On the Lightfoot thoughts: it could be modified. I find that it's not the 20 rounds that is enough, it's the 4 LRMs that do the trick.[:)] Also, I find no other light titans sporting more ammo than 20 rounds for their LRMs. I think it's good. He usually will run out of armor before he runs out of ammo. Anyway, the scanner doesn't help a rookie either. It doesn't allow him to scan while waiting on reload. If I just increased his heat dissipation it might allow him to keep his distance by running. There is definitely a hole there. I'll work on it.
On the Polar Bear: I will look into the extra armor comments, but some other points I can't agree on. The heat dissipation is to cover the massive amounts of heat he generates. If he is firing longer ranges he will use the Plasma, Gauss, AC/7, AC/12. That generates a total of 4.75 Heat/sec. He will probably be running, so 6.05 Heat/sec. That gives him enough to try with the EM pulser off and on. If he is standing still he will be able to fire it all with no trouble. (So the point is that there is no reason to load up on heat intensive weapons just because we're in polar. It really only gives an extra 1.0 Heat/sec.)
At short ranges I am making use of the damage/sec the flamers do as compared to MGs' damage/sec. It is superior in this regard, even though we don't add much heat to the target. He will also probably switch to the Cold Light Gun at that range, too.
The comments on armor in the Polar Bear's original posting were merely to sound glamorous. I remember Tech Readouts from another source that always made you feel like "this m___ is the ultimate!" even though you know it wasn't. It's just advertising.[;)] On the serious side, it is true that M armor is weaker; it's strength is heat dissipation. It is very important to remember that you can't fire if you don't have the heat to do it. Eventually it will catch up with you. This titans brings heat dissipation to the max, then puts weapons on that use it well. So even though his armor is not as strong as his opponent's could be, he is able to use more weapons on them to compensate. Meanwhile, they are wasting tons on shields because he is mostly cannon based, and there is no counter for cannons. If he runs out of ammo, he still has enough energy to be threatening.
I don't like using the chassis that make piloting skill roles harder. I use them if I have to, but I would much rather not worry about the extra, and have a stable titan. You will have that extra tonnage blown off while you are standing up again.
These are just my thoughts.

RE: Titan Designs
Here is my next design I use a lot:
The heart of this design is the ability to carry two Plasma Guns and fire them continuously without a heat problem. He is fast moving to keep long range, and is super deadly with a modest size Scanner and Targeting Computer. His biggest opponent is other titans with PGs and GMs. He carries a flare launcher to counter the missiles, and his extemely low heat potential makes it harder for them since they are heat sinking. Also his Shields should help to negate some of his opponent's damage. Once he brings someone down, or if an opponent gets too close, he has small lasers to help out. One might think they are no big deal, but he has them set up in a mini-gun fashion on his Right Arm. With their rapid fire effect they can do more damage in a given time than his PGs for the same amount of heat. The pilot often begs for you to come closer! This titan can be piloted by fairly inexperienced pilots well since it does not make use of different weapon types. A possible weakness is the opponent who has a sizable shield, in which case the pilot must rely on other teammates, or hope to overload the shields. It is aptly named the Camel because it is good for long missions away from bases, since it does not use ammunition.

The heart of this design is the ability to carry two Plasma Guns and fire them continuously without a heat problem. He is fast moving to keep long range, and is super deadly with a modest size Scanner and Targeting Computer. His biggest opponent is other titans with PGs and GMs. He carries a flare launcher to counter the missiles, and his extemely low heat potential makes it harder for them since they are heat sinking. Also his Shields should help to negate some of his opponent's damage. Once he brings someone down, or if an opponent gets too close, he has small lasers to help out. One might think they are no big deal, but he has them set up in a mini-gun fashion on his Right Arm. With their rapid fire effect they can do more damage in a given time than his PGs for the same amount of heat. The pilot often begs for you to come closer! This titan can be piloted by fairly inexperienced pilots well since it does not make use of different weapon types. A possible weakness is the opponent who has a sizable shield, in which case the pilot must rely on other teammates, or hope to overload the shields. It is aptly named the Camel because it is good for long missions away from bases, since it does not use ammunition.

RE: Titan Designs
Nice design but it looks nearly identical to the Starfire. [;)]
RE: Titan Designs
Hmm... Okay, I admit I haven't downloaded that new list yet. [:(]
After downloading:
When I try to merge I am having trouble with the tmerge again. I use:
tmerge -1 1a.tos -2 1b.tos -o 1.tos
It gives me:
Could not load fvars.dat, working on v1.2.2 data
1a.tos consists of 36 titans v1.2.x or better
1b.tos consists of 41 titans v1.2.x or better
you must use -o while both -1 and -2 are used!

RE: Titan Designs
Perhaps it is easier to export own designs with the factory, replace the database files with the new ones and import back.
Edit: Fixed tmerge bug with 1.2.2z

RE: Titan Designs
Ooops. Fixed. Added 'prev' & 'next' button in hq titan display while scanning the factory database. It is easier to skip through designs now.
RE: Titan Designs
The court case on this one would rule that both designs were created independently. Since it could be proven, both companies were able to go ahead with manufacture. [:D]
Actually, I would also like to add that I prefer 4 SL. You can use all of them if your opponent decides to sit there with you. (And I do mean sit.) If I had a newbie I might prefer the Starfire. In the final analysis, I'm just putting some designs out there as I promised a while back.

RE: Titan Designs
Hey Ghostbear, my day job is intruding on my ability to test all your designs, play ToS, and on reading your forum posting without having to comment...
Doesn't matter if the manufacturers invented separately, only who invented first (US laws) or filed first (rest of the world laws) for their patent on the Titan. Of course, by 3042 or whenever we're supposed to be playing, all the lawyers who'd recite this nonsense to you will have been banished to penal colonies.
Gotta quit the day job and play more games...

Your post does not make sense to me.
