That's a good TRO

Can we talk about that?

Favorite vehicles in particular.

I really like fan Tros, lots of time better than the official (like that Spanish one or the One in the OP).
Also what happened with OURS?
I keep reading about it but I never seen any progress here.

Muninn (one of two major guys working on it) changed continents a couple of times and disappeared, and since he has a lot of the files involved, it's ground to a halt.

(regarding pic)

Where is the ammo for those cons stored?

He could update those, we have lots of bored anons here than could do wonders.
We could start it from scratch too, and make our own AU.

Every time we work on an AU, it eventually collapses as anons can't agree on what they want the AU realm to be like. It makes more sense for you specifically to make an AU and keep up updated on it, taking advice here and there, but maintaining personal control of the project according to your desires.

How does a mech with a ST mounted cockpit (Thunderbolt, Summoner) survive losing the cockpit ST?

The cockpit isn't actually in the side torso, it's in the head. The art is not a perfect descriptor of this, you just sorta have to roll with it.

The head's mounted on the ST. I'd say that really, lore-wise, losing the head ST should be enough to destroy a design like the Thunderbolt or Summoner and the only reason you don't lose the mech in actual tabletop play is because that'd complicate the rules and would probably make them much less desirable mechs considering they'd be far easier to kill for no real benefit.
