heya matchstick welcome back to the mechwarrior 2 scene! :)
Glad to see another person who loves battletech/mech2!

Drop by our IRC channel sometime. It is hard to get a game usually, but still worth dropping by.

no real way to get to speed. As I said games are sparse, so ya gotta bug people in IRC. :)
Really though all you need to know is the Rules for playing and the rest of it if you have played singleplayer you should be ok.
O and ... avoid Summoners, Gargoyles and Maddogs.

those mechs are the worst mechs in the game really because the bounding spheres and armor setup leave the mech extremely vulnerable.
Face off a Hellbringer and Summoner and 90% of the time the Hellbringer will win unless he is unskilled.

Is that the armour allocations the stock profiles, or the available allocations when customizing?

What are bounding spheres?

Thanks

the armor is an issue even if it is customized.
Bounding spheres are the hit points that you do not see on the screen. They are circles around the parts of the mechs.
