If not, the warmth of the miniature should soften it enough for a knife blade to cut through.
Good luck!

Atlas stood guard while the other Davion Mechs reboarded the DropShip.
Justin smiled to himself. That has to be Morgan.
Going my way?
The Atlas waved him forward with its left hand.
Wouldn't think of leaving without you. Next stop: home.

It works. Exposed to the gas, the myomer they stole from Bethel ignites when they run power through it to make it contract!
M.H.D
Yes! But take care anyway. Until the muscle hits gas, it's very powerful.

Run, Andrew. I owe you nothing. You have no hold over me that will save your life.

You bastard!

That's right, Philip, Justine said with laugh, I marched Legend-Killer into this little trap backward. Just like a treacheous Capellan to pull a trick like that, eh? And so like a tupid Federat to fall for it.
#battletech
Shoot at the weak spot behind. However, the mech in the dark won't go down.
The truth is two sides of the same coin.
Rifleman "Dao Breaker" -Philip Capet
Rifleman "Legend Killer" -Justin Xiang
As though Capet had read Justin's mind, he suddenly stepped his Rifleman up to block the Legend-killer's line of retreat.
P.C
It's all over, Justin Xiang. Good riddance.
Rifleman blazed away with everything.

Rifleman "Legend Killer" -Justin Xiang
UrbanMech "Street Cleaner" -Unknown
He pivoted Legend-Killer on frozen left leg. The huge Mechswung around & filled the tunnel mouth, its guns snapping into line with the smaller UrbanMech.
Then Justin let loose with every weapon the Rifleman had.

Proximity alarms filled cockpit with screamed warnings. Justine looked up. From above, Firestater was descending on jet of ion flame. He shook head. Idiot. Battered & bruised I may be, but tinder for pyre I'm not.

...dropped into the crevasses.
By sliding down on the mech back, he had totally shredded the rear armor.
#battletech
<Arm swing action>
Justin's traumatic and, Back shot are very popular the audience.
Certainly looks so cool, but, it has a fatal weakness.
Simultaneously, there are effective ways to utilize it...
You will be watching Justin's magic & the legendary counterattack in the not-too-distant future.
<At the last second>
Justin saw the Rifleman's arms swing toward the sky.
He raced straight in at the back, making himself an easy target.
The Rifleman's arms snapped down easily and Wolfson brought all 4 weapons to bear on the suicidal Centurion.

Undaunted by DMG the Rifleman had inflicted, Safely inside the firing range of mech's long arms, Justin stabbed mech's left hand into Rifleman.
The titanium blades slashed like meat cleaver through mech's inferior rear armor.

In a way, you're right.
The Cataphract is an ugly, patchwork 'FrankenMech' created by declining nation from mechs such as the Marauder, Shadow Hawk and Phoenix Hawk.
This is exactly what the designers intended.๐

<At the last minute>
He grinned again and dropped his missile targeting crosshairs onto the Rifleman's silhouette.
But wait...What is that pilot doing?
Justin felt terror flash through his guts as the Rifleman stopped trying to track his Valkyrie.
#battletech
Rifleman "Legend Killer" -Gray Noton
Valkyrie -Justin Allard
No! Not like this!
The Rifleman, swinging its weapons into line with the valkyrie, scythed laser fire through the mech's legs and ended Justin's futile attempt at flight.

Why did she change mech name from "Jasmine", named after her mother, to "Eleutheria"?
One of Highnesses fulfilled cravingliberty and love, hence the name.
The small difference between the sisters caused great strain history...

Today's #Battletech in Japan
I fought as one of Bounty Hunter's men.
The man himself was giving us precise instructions while holding the gold.
That helped us win the decision.
The dense formation within the umbrella of ECM-equipped mech and disabling the LRM Artemis IV was successful.
Warlord Grieg Samsonov has been defeated.
2/3 enemies remain.
2nd, ISF agent who blew up left side of SENSEI's body: Panati.
Last, coordinator who made final decision: Takashi Kurita.
No matter how many years pass, Noketsuna's flame of revenge will never fade.

This scene of revenge is not mentioned in the novel, which only describes the aftermath of the head being returned.
I have therefore written the lines that the samurai would say in the kabuki performance.
