I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE COOL IF WE COULD COME UP WITH SOME VARIANT RULES FOR MECHWARRIOR. FOR INSTANCE:

* ALLOWING RANGED FIRE ON AN OPPONENT EVEN WHEN THEY ARE IN BASE CONTACT WITH A FRIENDLY UNIT. HOWEVER THE FRIENDLY UNITS CAN NOT BE BLOCKING THE TARGET AND THE RANGE FIRE MUST TAKE A -1 TO THE ATTACK. IF THE ATTACK IS CONSIDERED A MISS THEN THE OPPONENT GETS TO DIVIDE THE DAMAGE TO THE ATTACKERS THAT ARE IN BASE CONTACT WITH HIM.

*HOW ABOUT ADDING LEVEL HIEGHT TO ABRUPT AND REGULAR ELEVATION AND ADDING A ADJUSTMENT RATING FOR DISTANCE TO RANGED ATTACKS/PER LEVEL. I.E. IF SOME ONE IS FIRING RANGED ATTACK FROM A 2 STORY BUILDING (LEVEL 2) THEN THEY MUST SUBTRACT 1 INCH FROM THIER RANGED ATTACK DISTANCE. LEVEL 3-LEVEL 4/-2 INCHES,LEVEL 5-LEVEL 6/-3 INCHES AND SO ON AND SO FORTH. THERE WOULD BE NO ADJUSTMENT FROM A 1 STORY (LEVEL 1) BUILDING. IN THE CASE OF DEFENDING, THE OPPONENT WOULD SUFFER THE SAME DRAWBACK WHEN FIRING ON A ELEVATED OPPONENT.

*JUMP JETS SHOULD HAVE A MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF HIEGHT THAT THEY ARE ABLE TO JUMP. THIS COULD BE WORKED OUT TO BE 1/2 OF THE JUMPERS SPEED.

*WHAT ABOUT A TERRAIN TYPE CALLED TORRENTIAL RIVERS ( FAST MOVING WHITE WATER RIVERS) ONLY MECHS WOULD BE ABLE TO CROSS THEM.MOVEMENT WOULD BE AT AT HALF SPEED AND TAKE A -2 ON ALL ATTACKS THAT THEY MAKE WHILE IN THE RIVER FLOW.NO BASE TO BASE COMBAT WOULD BE ALLOWED. IN ORDER TO EXIT THIS TYPE OF RIVER THE MECH WOULD HAVE TO MAKE AN ESCAPE JUST LIKE WHEN IN BASE CONTACT WITH AN OPPENENT. A FAILED ATTEMPTED WOULD CAUSE 1 CLICK OF DAMAGE TO THE MECH.

*INFANTRY BATTLE ARMOR SHOULD DO DOUBLE DAMAGE TO ANY OTHER TYPE OF INFANTRY THAT IS NOT IN BATTLE ARMOR.

*VEHICLES THAT RAM MECHS SHOULD TAKE A MINIMUM OF 2 CLICKS OF DAMAGE AND A MAXIMUM OF D6 DAMAGE. IT IS KIND OF HARD TO BELIEVE THAT ANY VEHICLE REGAURDLESS OF WHAT TYPE OF ARMOR IT HAS COULD RUN INTO 20 TO 100 TON OF STEEL AND ONLY TEAR OFF THE BUMPER ABLE TO RUN AND RAM AGAIN.

MECHS AND VEHICLES SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO CHARGE AND RAM INFANTRY. MECHS AND VEHICLES SHOULD DO D6 DAMAGE IN THIS MANNER OF ATTACK TO GIVE A SEMBALENCE OF REALITY IN THAT THERE WAS 1 SOLDIER KILLED OR THE MAJORITY OF THE LANCE.

WELL THAT IS JUST A FEW OF THE IDEAS THAT I HAVE, IS THERE ANYONE ELSE OUT THERE THAT HAS ANY SUGGESTIONS? WHO KNOWS MAYBE WIZ KIDS MIGHT TAKE NOTICE AND USE SOME OF OUR IDEAS,HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE!
