Dead pilot, destroyed engine, destroyed heat reg. right? I think that's the only way to take out the titans.

Two more battles with Jukka. I lost the first one, his IMP tore my Whip apart when it got close enough to hit me with those deadly TBs.

Second match was a bit more interesting. (Not to mention that I won this one! )
We dueled with mediums, I got the Illuminator and he got the Medusa. I tried to stay away from him, and managed pretty well for the first half of the fight, circling all the way around the map and shooting him a couple times. Then he caught up with me and started ripping into me. Pretty soon, I started turning colors. Finally, I gave up trying to run away and charged him. Sadly, I fell and he did not, giving him a chance to remove more portions of my titan-anatomy. After failed a stand check (100/98), I made it up and kicked him in the LoT, which magically made me fall down again, while he stayed up. Struggling to my feet once more, I booted him in the groin again, this time destroying it (Ouch.) That turned the tide, and I drove two fists and a pulse laser shot into his CBT, destroying his engine. It was total luck, I admit it, but I still won. Heh heh. A nice 105th fight.

Roast rack of Alexi anyone? We went on lights for a quick game, as she needed to go afterwards. I drew a Tempest while she drew a homemade Zaku (loosely based on Gundam Wing mech, twin SRM8s, twin SRM4s, axe). I climbed a nice forested hill and saw her without her seeing me. I fired off an ML which missed and then she spotted me. She started tossing missiles at me and headed for some woods at the base of my hills. She made it there and crouched, intent on tenderizing me. Unfortunately for her, I had other plans, and after a miss, her hex was on fire. >=D She started running into the next forested hex, and slammed me with a bunch of missiles <img src="frown.gif" border="0"> while I was waiting to cool down. Then she ran into the next one, which I promptly set on fire with another miss. She turned and headed for the next wooded area, only to have me set it on fire the second she reached inside. She then tried jumping out of the frying pan, which promptly put her into the fire, as she wasn't able to jump forward into the wooded hill. She landed, and being a bit dizzy from the heat, crashed. <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0"> She tried standing up, and turning around to run into an open plains, only to be knocked down several times with my BRG, one of which conked her noggin. (I hate it when the food you cook is still alive and tries to run away, don't you?). Finally reaching a good internal temperature, several missile racks went off, causing a 41 and 28 point explosion, which took her RA off and knocked her down. Being the humane guy that I am, I severed her head with another BRG and ML before she could explode. <img src="wink.gif" border="0">

I battled PC on his Gravedigger with me having a musketeer..
I had the luck of seeing him before he could see me and I placed some AC Shots while running to a nice hill with a dense forest on top of it.
PC hit me once with his Mesons but my DCS prevent any further damage, while i continued to hit him with my AC's. They hit his Right Leg with every 2nd shot and soon it got blown off, while the rest of his Titan was still green. Since he couldn't stand up I started calling his CT while he tried to turn around and eject. He succeeded in doing so and my Titan went out of this game all green.
A sad win since I had way too much luck...

I'm on fire! Roasted Naragon today, literally. Random terrain sent us to hell, him on a Bonecrusher, me on a refit Ember. He got about 6-7 shots off, two hitting me, one in each torso before I barbecued him alive. >=D

4 games today, 2 wins vs. Michael, 1 win, 1 loss vs. Lyhrrus. Tough fights all, but no time for it right now. Suffice to say, luck played a very big role in both games. Until next time, guys. Much respect to both of you.
