If you use industrialmechs with fluid sprayers you can straight up do this to people.
What I think...
...that Elementals need, could be in addition to their normal gear, would not even weigh that much, is spray paint. I mean, is there a 'mech out there that has a defense against:

Dazzle camo is a bitch and I'm probably not gonna do it again. I'm not even 100% certain what I did was "good" dazzle camo. It did seem extremely appropriate for the straight ally flag, though

We sent the new astech to find the gender fluid and they came back with this, so who wants a new mech?

I intended to be legitimately productive about Real World Stuff yesterday and then I got sick and spent all day in a Tylenol induced haze producing this Crossbow. The chequy took forever but I love the result.

The Clans are undeniably the "timmy" faction of battletech for better or worse. They're powerful but not necessarily in any way that's interesting beyond their close combined arms. Luckily you can just fight them, call them weirdos, and then steal their shit
I’ve recently taken an interest in Battletech due to playing Mechwarrior 5 Mercenaries, and just ordered the “Game of Armored Combat” box set. My only prior exposure to the series was when I was a very small child and I played a little bit of Mechwarrior 2 on my dad’s computer but I but I didn’t even know at the time that it was related to a tabletop game or know anything about the plot. So prior to this week I’m essentially completely new to the franchise lore wise.
What I find really interesting is that I was reading the lore and learning about like the “Succession Wars” stuff and really digging all this these different political and ethnic factions and stuff. I haven’t really delved into them too much but Comstar sounds really intriguing they kinda remind of the Terran cultists from Legend of the Galactic Heroes.
then I get to the “Clan Invasion” and I’m like oh this sucks. I don’t find the high tech super soldiers and warrior caste system and goofy looking animal emblems of the Clans interesting at all. That’s not to say that lore is bad or whatever it just doesn’t do anything for me. They remind me too much of the Brotherhood of Steel from Fallout or the Space Marines from Warhammer 40,000. I’m not saying that one necessarily copied the other or whatever either, it’s just kinda my overall fatigue towards those tropes. Thing is though I feel like if I had gotten into Battletech as a kid instead of 40k I’d probably have the opposite view and think the clans were super cool and the Succession Wars/Great Houses stuff was bland, and have some kind rose tinted nostalgia towards them like I do towards Space Marines.
