for fun kinda thing. yaml.

im curious. for the more experienced pilots who know the mechs more then i probably do. what would be fun/bonkers mech to screw around in on godmode yaml? melee included, any size class.

I'm curious. WTF is yaml?

yet another mechlab

Get a light mech, install 400 engine, MASC and SC (they stack), now you have a 300kph race mech. Just don't take any hits and don't run into other mechs, you can core yourself running into others.
Or recreate the most fearsome mech ever fielded, 360 degree of death aka Urbie. They got a huge armor buff if you have quirk system enabled in yaml, so you can actually survive after committing to the meme.
Or get a Charger-1A1 and try making it actually useful...

My personal favorite would always be SRM boats. Find mechs with 4 missile hardpoints and slap 4x SRM6-Art on it, with optional MASC if it still has crit slots, then headshot everything. These mechs have 4 or more missile hardpoints: Dervish, Trebuchet, Quickdraw, Archer-Agincourt, Cyclops-10-Q

Baradul has tons of videos of meme-mechs, like a Thunderbolt that had several light PPC's stacked on it so it was like a rotary-PPC in effect.

Don't even need godmode for this one, its a YAML star league locust, forget the variant number specifically. Has 8 energy slots, 3 in each 'arm' and 2 in the CT, make em all flamers. Absolutely melts opposing mechs, affectionately referred to by our lance as 'The Warcrime'.

wait thew star league locust? how you get that one?

A LCT-1VB with maxed armor (BC for best results), a hotseat, and supercharger is still able to fit in 4 cERML's and 2 cERSL's, while still having enough weight and criticals free for a 250 cXL engine. If you get hit in the 507 kph Locust, something's wrong. You can also downrate the engine and pretend to be a LAM or an ASF, I guess.

Don't forget the ARC-5W and ARC-5WX, which have 9 and 8 missile hardpoints, respectively. There's just something special about 54 cSRM's going into a cockpit.

[Latol]

probably a dumb question but bc?

Black Carapace, a non-canon HarJel-integrated armor type.
