Thanks for the videos. Decent production, clear audio, friendly approach. The videos in the playlist are out of order from a date/phase standpoint. Do you (or anyone) know if that's at my end? It goes Intro, Heat Phase, Close Combat Phase, Weapons Phase, Movement Phase, Record Sheets, Initiative, and End Phase. I can click, it's fine, but I'm getting caught up some of the more advanced stuff may get confusing (?)
It is mostly triggering my OCD more than anything else.

We have adjusted the list to be more playlist (and OCD) friendly. This should flow much better if you want to watch them all in a proper order. Thank you Bill.

@@AlphaStrikeWePlay Ahh...I feel so much better, the headache is gone, the vision has cleared....thank you. Nice response time too, BTW.

Is CQ simultaneous ? Or do you go in initative order and apply damage immediately? As shooting is simultaneously

[@AlphaStrikeWePlay]

The rules for Weapon Attacks are the same for Physical so resolve in initiative order and damage applied at the end of the phase.

@@AlphaStrikeWePlay so two mechs can literally kick each others legs off lol . cheers

[@monkeyfoo999]

So do you apply all the damage from shooting, and the do melee? So all damage from being shot apply?

[@AlphaStrikeWePlay]

Only damage from each phase counts. The shooting attack phase damage does not stack with the physical attack damage for piloring checks and such. Resolve all Shooting and end the phase. Begin physical attack phase and declare actions in initiative order qnd resolve. Hope that makes sense?👍

@@AlphaStrikeWePlay thank you. Do you also know a good place to find the mech data sheets. In particular inner sphere mechs pre clan invasion?
