    Just ragequit a 3-skull mission that had reinforcements spawn in on my flank before I even fired first volley, consisting of a 3 Jagermechs and a sensor locking tank. My LRM boat took 90 LRMs to the side before I could see them or even move. Very tempted to just avoid all Battle missions from here on out. They're bullshit.

    I have now seen nonsense in it's purest form.

    I know that with all games that have an element of RNG to them that nonsense happens. I've played both new XCOMs and I've missed my fair share of 90+% shots.

    But I have never, NEVER seen anything like a hunchback with both arms blown off run up to my character (who is in a dragon, by the way), and manage to MELEE OFF MY HEAD IN A SINGLE SHOT! No previous damage to the head. I didn't even know that melee COULD hit the head. Now my main character is on the shelf for 120 days.

    I...I...I don't know what to say.

    Oh yeah i had that happen to me as well, full health Mech think it was my Shadowhawk 2D. The enemy had a Wolverine that had 8 HP left and no weapons. He shoulder charged me and blew my head clean off in one swoop.

    After putzing about for 70+ hours, I think I finally made it to the last story mission. Its giving me a lot of point of no return warnings. Darius also said something like You will need to field several lances for this mission. I've gotten through the game with only 6 pilots in my roster at a time. This warning made me panic and hire six more. I also only have 5 or 6 assault mechs. Am I ready for the final mission? I'd like to end the campaign soon and not spend a whole lot more time grinding out side missions.

    @mobiusfun: You should be fine.

    It's 2 missions back to back with no resupply. Keep 3 pilots and 3 mechs in reserve and you should do OK.

    @sandweed: Thanks. I guess I'll finish it tonight then.

    Also, I never saw a King Crab throughout the whole campaign. Bummer!
