Recently, Nitroburst, Pirate and Tweezer all headed to scenic Nashville, TN to play in the annual MRC birthday bash Battletech tournament at Nashcon and compete for fabulous prizes like a new Broyhill dinette set and the long rumored elemental body pillow. How did we do? Did the sweat roll off in buckets? Stay tuned as we walk through our lists, the missions and game reports.

This episode is another tactical discussion on the merits of using Indirect Fire. The illustrious Jason Hansa is joining us in the pod again for this somewhat controversial topic on tool allowing you to shoot at your opponents without fear of reprisal. We won't be talking about artillery here, that's an episode all it's own at a later date.

It's starting to get into peak tournament season and the Coolant Pod (with a guest in tow), headed up to Detroit to throw math rocks and have a blast with friends new and old at Motor City Mayhem, the second largest Alpha Strike event in the country. In this episode, we'll break down what decisions we make and how we think about list building for blind mission in the Assault format. Then we'll dive into the four games we played, and how those went. Hope you enjoy!

Ten meter tall mechs are the reason most of us got into this game. But in this episode, the Coolant Pod talks about a unit type that some feel are unheralded, some just don't understand and never take, and frankly WE feel naked going into battle without them. It's time to talk all things Battle Armor and how to use them effectively.

Welcome to the latest edition of the Coolant Pod. When Catalyst dropped the Black Remnant pack at PAX, we were all surprised. And now that we've had a chance to play with these units, we've found some serious pain to bring to your next game.
