If it moves, it wants to kill you. It may not try to, but it wants to.

Well, you know how if you take your thumb and forefinger and hold them up to your eye, you can make it look like you're squishing someone's head? It's like that, only for real.

Sounds like a fun idea. You can use this thread to arrange for it, with the actual LP in another thread once you get players.

BY THE WAY! I forgot to mention this: MechCommander 2 is FREE OPEN SOURCE. Yes. Microsoft has released it for FREE, AND the source code!

Normal people don't want to have to compile the source though, so they should go here to download the .iso. Both direct download and torrent versions are available. That site also has downloads for MechCommander 1 and MechCommander Gold incidentally, having also been released by Microsoft.

I will update the first post with all this new stuff.

The MechAnized Guild of MercenAries, M.A.G.M.A, puts forth its candidacy for this event.
----------
I don't know how it will take form, but I will be the first to put myself forward as a candidate for the Multiplayer LP. I can play, I can also take screenshots and film and livestream. I can help make it happen.

Also, it might be fun to put together some kind of Dwarf Fortress mod for the game to use. Something simple though, like replacing all the pilots with names and avatars of Bay 12 members :) I could do such a thing.

Bah. Kids these days, with all of their "multiplayer" let's plays, and whatnot. Why, when I was a boy...

Just played a couple games of MC2 with Volatar, this game is fuuun.

One game we set forth to spam scout copters and have a epic battle... However I was in a anubis(fastest mech) and he was in a madcat(the iconic mech, and much more powerful). What resulted was a wild goose chase with me trying to lead his madcat over landmines and past field artillery.

He actually got my madcat, but then I caught up with his anubis with my chopper swarm  :D

To be honest, I thought that killing his madcat would have ended the game right there, but apparently every unit including those you can drop down keep you in the game.

For any actual LP stuff I would recommend disabling most of those for that reason. We don't want to have to hunt down every last minelayer someone stuck in each corner of the map   :-\

Schweet. I feel a little silly having bought it now (came in a pack with vengeance). I vote that I am a bad guy, because that's how I roll. I haven't gotten the livestream chat window to show in MC2 successfully- have any of you?
