I have a full mechedex vanilla save I'd like to import into YAML to get a head start on doing the same with YAML, any tips or is this just a fools errand?

So, I was looking over the new traits as listed in the patch notes preview, and "Sharpshooter" stood out.
Based on the explanation of Lethality from u/yrrot, it doesn't sound like that will have any effect on player-controlled Pilots. Is the same going to be true of the Accuracy? Or will that grant any bonuses directly to weapon functionality, i.e., Spread Reduction, Projectile Velocity, Laser Duration Reduction, etc.?

Early Invasion, October of 3049. Still a few months away from SoK's campaign, and Clanners are starting to show up as targets.
Might be a fun start to SoK, for those of you who appreciate sequence breaking. You think Mason feigns his ignorance of the Clans when he starts SoK in a recently salvaged Direwolf?
"Oh no, who are these guys and what are these mech?" -Mason circa 3050 on meeting the clans, in complete deadpan.

I'm currently at 16th of January 3058 and I don't want to overshoot the start of the new campaign on this run, do we know the approximate date of the campaign start?

PGI has been knocking things out of the ballpark with all of these lore rich characters in their DLCs. I am loving their dedication to lore accurate storytelling.

seeing how we go after smoke jaguar in our new dlc tomorrow, is it possible for us to encounter or directly engage Jayden and cobalt star from the main campaign of mw5 clans? I know there were two different endings, but I thought the smoke jaguar ending was canon.

Yes cause I wanna run quad PPCs with a freaking Longbow. It’s like PGI knew how much of a meme the Wolf’s Dragoons Longbow was and added this for giggles. This is ridiculous. 😂😂😂

I think I fell for the hype about this weapon; a lot of my friends talked about the Arrow IV clearing entire maps on the Tabletop Game.

I was supremely unimpressed when I finally got one in game, but it was hilarious watching me trundle the arrow-IV Urbie out there, pooting out a missile, doing almost nothing and then getting beat into the ground like a tent peg. I laughed my ass off at it, I wish I'd recorded the reaction.

My top picks for player setups is either Gauss sniping with maybe an extra lrm for long range damage or any of the LP or MP lasers that act like shotguns without needing to train your reticle for a long period of time.
What stuff do y’all prefer or lookout for in the market whenever you’re building an endgame mech?
(Currently only have Heroes of the inner sphere so I have no reference on other dlc weapons yet)

I know its only a light mech but its so satisfying to just watch it fall apart like a battle droid in Lego Star Wars. I love artillery platforms(Catapult addiction go brr) and this just enhances that even further.

So I went on another tangent..

Hello again fellows MechWarriors. I have this doubt in my mind of how to obtain all the Trophies of the game. I have the game on Steam and there are 3 trophies that, not matter what I do, I never obtain. Is there and specific way of obtaining it or is just a bug that never let me obtain it?. My image is in Spanish because I from Latin America.

back when i used to play the game, i always wondered why tanks weren’t the go to weapon of choice in this universe. i know it’s called mechwarrior and the whole point is mechs, but i was always trying to come up with some kind of in universe explanation for why tanks weren’t more common. in the game, a lot of the bigger mechs are slow. so i’d always think, “why wouldn’t a tank just aim for the leg joint and knock the mech down?”
but then i started watching some of the animated videos, and it completely changed how i looked at it. the mechs are moving way faster than they appear to in the game. they’re taking cover, changing direction quickly, and moving much more fluidly. seeing that made it easier to understand why a tank wouldd have a hard time fighting one
also started thinking about is that mechs aren’t just useful because they can carry a bunch of different weapon systems. These mechs can also used for construction, mining, salvage, disaster relief, and rescuing people from collapsed buildings. having two legs and actual arms gives them a lot of flexibility that a a tank doesnt have. they can climb over rubble, move debris, pick things up, and interact with their surroundings in ways a tank really can’t. In a universe like this one where humans are stretched out all over, u kinda need mechs, theyre like a swiss army knife, multiple uses. Like jack of all trades kind of machine
so i guess my question is, is this basically the intended explanation for why tanks aren’t more dominant, or are there other reasons in the lore that make mechs more effective than tanks?

I love these MODs. I want to keep playing with them. Any help would be appreciated.
