I am immensely pleased with the results of this turn. Only thing that would have made it better, would be if I had executed the landing better. But still, mightily chuffed.

shame im now in prime spot to take fire from everyone ...i would prefere to stay put and continue plesantries with azira but that position is ..ughhh...
I know I'm tooting my own horn here, but melêeing with leg sweeps and Deaths from Above; this battletech LP is the best one yet. 
So much death and carnage this round. That single round slugging match between the Guillotine and Thunderbolt was simply awesome.

So, my large laser was hit. Does that mean it's gone?

all that was missiong was few cream cakes thrown at faces to make this complete....

It's gone. Also you can't use your club anymore due to the damaged hand actuator.
Was I mean to tindrli? I mean, kicking out a leg from under him, then just abandoning him?
The odds for him to be back on his feet foot by now were 42% (neglecting rolls for pilot damage and consciousness, I can't be arsed to calculate this right now, probably still more than 25% all things considered), he just wasn't lucky. Now he has to endure at least two rounds of fire. At least he won't feel a thing.
My mech's handily falling apart, but then again I did take out the dragon singlehandedly (yep, hogging the fame here, it was my sneaky leg sweep that felled it after all) and then did a nasty DFA on the Guillotine, so I count it as a moral victory, even though my threat rating has plummeted after my large laser went bust.
