Had that mech had jump jets things might've ended differently. But it didn't, superior tactics and thinking win the day.

Totally captivating. Im sitting here on Fathers day sipping coffee impressed and intrigued. It's up to us to come together to create the next big income of Mechwarrior to the world again to capture the audience of today for a fast paced sci fi thrill ride. It's a gift for me today to see that other fans are out there creating amazing stories of the same ones I am. I say we create a think tank together compose and finance together a Movie for Mechwarrior. Books art are a great passion of all of ours now lets make a movie.

Sort of - the characters are but the story I constructed based on his idea how this took place.

Interesting choice.
The Black Lanner was created by the Jade Falcons from experience gained fighting Inner Sphere mechs.
It appeared in no game i know of and only in minor side moments in novels.
While i dislike the fashist Clans, i do like their toys, and the Black Lanner looks very nice in my oppinion.

Hahaha-- BOOOM!!! Oh man, way to make the fabled king of the battlefield look like a bungling fool! Holy, those freebirthers really know their tactical stuff- that Lanner didn't stand a chance from the very start. That is some
damn impressive material Nuke-Fridge is writing; the tension in the story between the hunter and the prey was awesome, and the twist in advantages between them was certainly (to me) unexpected, despite the cue in the
pic's title. So much win.
I've always loved it when you'd take another guy's story and add your own interpretation of it in the form of a screenshot in the midst of action. You weave in emotion, pressure, tension, and tremendous destruction most
fitting to the written situation, and the result is the terrific blend of talents you'd see in a movie or a video game. Little elements in the piece, such as the position of the vehicles, the colour scheme, the damage inflicted, and
the perspective, add so much to an already excellent story.
It looks easier said than done, though- this one looked like a horror to do! I can see what you mean about the mech- I haven't even attempted to try one out myself- but ho man, the result is so cool! I adore how you caught
the shifting of its weight under fire; it just nails the mech overall and makes it work really well. That lurch to the right does not look healthy!
Another great work as always, sir

I love how you collaborated with him to get the perfect result- two minds are, at times, better than one, and the combination just nailed it. That lurch, though-- I just adore seeing heavy objects, such as mechs,
given proper evidence of weight in a 2-dimensional (or even 3-D!) space. It's not easy to do, but when it is done right, it carries a lot of artistic clout!
I remember reading a quote from Captain Kirk in an old Star Trek newspaper comic compilation: "No weapon is obsolete if it's effective". Very true words, I believe, and they apply here so aptly!
WOW! You gave the creator himself new ideas for his works-- many kudos, sir, and much respect! It's not a common occurrence!
I am so glad they stir you! Cheers, my friend

Harassers REPRESENT
Definitely the most entertaining tank to use in MechWarrior Living Legends. Hard to kill a Lanner with one, but it's pretty hilarious spinning around a Daishi faster than he can track you.

Wonderful combination of story and image! It's turned out far better than I ever hoped for.

Impressive! The tale and the picture weave together beautifully, creating an evocative image that can be imagined blow for blow, step for step. Even more impressively is how clean and flowing the whole thing is. There's no bumps, no questions as to why, it all makes the kind of simple sense that pulls you into a story and lets you forget that any other reality exists. In this tale, there is only the battle, and the picture brings it all to life.
Many is the time I have taught others to fear the power of the humble hovercraft. Their incredible turns of speed and lethal pack tactics have quite often put mechs to shame. Most people I've played against treat these light tanks as targets, not realizing the lethality that can be had. My favorite hovercraft attack of all time has to be my Davion Guards' Longarm Unit, which is made up of Savannah Masters carrying C3 Slaves, and a group of Artillery Vehicles tied to a Command Vehicle carrying C3. Few things were quite as satisfying as watching massive shells land on their heads when all they thought they were tangling with was Savannah Masters.

Nice one. Just goes to show one should never under estimate the power of a group of ACVs.
Stupid Vat Born Falcon should have known better. Serves her right.
On the art side of things. Lots of improvement here, the explosions look spot on and the composition is great, you've really captured the moment before the Black Lanner eats dirt.
Kudos sir.

Good. Fucking clanners. This reminds me of how hard they'd piss and moan in TT matches when I'd just flood them with tanks, infantry, artillery, and air support.

This is amazing. That is all there is to say. The picture combined with the story is WONDERFUL. I personally am a tanker as I spoke with you and your group on several of your live streams and cunning and tactics is about all we have sometimes versus the much larger mechs. However, we can pull our own weight and this is a wonderful depiction of us doing just that. I love this so much and I hope I get to see more pictures with mini stories like this in the future. Nice job!
