Hey anybody got a good artillary design using cannons? I can't seem to find anything that works with out getting killed within the first 500 or so seconds of battle

Well, I don't have a specific design, but if you're talking about a titan to be out of the flow of battle, firing in...

Use Gauss Cannons/Autocannon 4's(at least 2 ammo slots for each gun, you'll probably miss quite a bit, unless you have godly cannon skill.). Decent computer, Decent scanner, Decent Heat reg, Low quality engine (just enough to power yer gadgets if you get them, i.e., shield+ecm, with 2 leftover for running, 3 if you expect to swivel quite a bit) jump ports can be a good idea, because best places to be are mountains, but if you need more armor and dont have nuf weight, toss the jump ports. put yer gadgets on, then armor the sucker good. Use Vicenium, unless yer low on space/weight, then use duralloy, or whatever it is...

That should build you a good titan

*mixed feelings about firestorm's post*
well... erm... im glad to be taken as a "vet" but... im not a noob. I've played for quite some time, have a team with all 8 jocks piloting assault titans... but its an old version, so i cant use it. I've been playing sinice v1.2.1, just i never kept up on it, and didnt know a forum existed till a month ago.

Thor: oh, my mistake. I've never actually measured it, though from my experience it does(or seems to at least) take 1PU to swivel.

Correct, swivelling uses 1 PU. Walking 2 PUs, running and dodging 3 PUs. It's all in the manual.

And PUs are generated by an internal nuclear engine which consists of a Hampster on a running wheel which is constantly fed baked beans. The bigger the Hampster the more it farts, and the more the pilot says PU, thus generating power through an altogether effective, but extremely warped and slightly gross process.

so if i have an anti-hamster gun i can disable an enemy tos without killing the pilot or doing too much damage to it? (wish ful thinking

)

I beleive something to that effect will be in the new ToS.
An EMP gun, or Electronic Mammal Paralyzer.
Should do the trick quite nicely.

ill just start saying NI! to the guy a whole bunch until he gives me a shrubbery that'll do the trick just as well

corrin: hmmm no i was thinking more along the line of cutting down the mightiest tree in the forest with a herring which will in turn release a vicious rabbit with sharp pointy teeth *makes like he has sharp pointy teeth* which will in turn release a plague upon this world starting from the castle of anthrax of perilous peril which sir lancelot will then come and "save" everyone from the perilous peril (the **** gay) followed by sir robin the-not-quite-so-brave-as-sir-lancelot, who had nearly fought the dragon of agnor, who had nearly stood up to the vicious chicken of bristol, and who had personnaly wet himself at the battle of badon hill, and the aptly named sir not-appearing-in-this-film who will run away from a 3 headed ogre that wants to drink tea and eat biscuts after killing him releasing a huge conspiracy leading right back to the hamsters running on tread mills in the reactors of titans! erm i think i went a little overboard here huh?

Yes, a bit. But I still love that movie.

We found a witch, may we burn her?

Asking about a cannon Titan probably wanted a Recon or Light.
Their are at least three nice light titans who have cannons.

1- has 2 AC-4's and 3 AC-7's ( Slugger )
2- has 2 AC-4's and 2 AC-12's ( Bloodhound )
3- has AC-4, AC-7, Gauss Cannon & Machine Gun ( Spear )
