The Trondheim 9 are comprised of myself, Ryana, and our channel members. The goal of this series is to play through the Kestrel Lancers DLC campaign and then head up north to start the Rise of Rasalhague DLC when it drops towards the end of the month. We are running a mostly vanilla save as I expect that the mods will all be broken when the new DLC arrives. The mods we are running can be found below as well as the list of our channel members, their pilot call signs, and their personal mechs for the series. This series was suggested by our members.

Rimworld B18 | DinoTroopers - Episode 7 | Mellowseven Let's Play
We are back in a land far, far away with Star Wars mod play through. This time our intrepid heros are a scrappy band of Imperial DinoTroopers. They have landed on a rimworld to help subdue the rebel alliance and return control of the planet to the Empire. Unfortunately for them the joys of beuracracy have raised their ugly heads and instead of being dropped the planet with their triceratops mounts they have instead dropped with triceratops eggs. Can they survive long enough to hatch and raise their mounts or is their mission finished before it's even started?

I enjoyed the mod spotlight on the Xenopac Unification mod by Xenoargh so much I decided that I would start a full series for it. I didn't want to do a long-term, open ended save though. So I think this is a good time to revisit the story line campaign. I haven't played it since the DLC dropped and don't know if there are any changes or improvements other than the initial cut scene. This is a heavily modded play-through and although I did do some preliminary testing to make the sure the mods mostly played nice, I can't make any promises that this will work as the mod authors don't specify any sort of compatibility with our mod selections. Let's jump in anyway and play MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries!

Phantom Brigade is an early access strategy game featuring mechs. It uses a turn based system in which all units move at the same time. Phantom Brigade is still in early access but is being constantly updated with an extremely active development team and a clear roadmap. Let's dip our toes into the most recent content update, Dressed to Kill.

Rimworld - Tribal Goblins 11 | Let's Play - Steam Workshop
This time we are trying to do a medieval/tribal only. So no guns for us or for other factions. We are using the Tribal World mod to accomplish this. We are going to be starting with goblins! There are a bunch of race mods added so we will continue to see additional races as factions but also as additional pawns we might recruit.
This is the first series where we are using our subscriber list to name the pawns. If you would like to have a chance to have your name used in my games please leave me a comment. If you want a name that is different from your account name please let me know that as well.

Now that modding is available for MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries and has had time to mature a bit, we are going to install a few and see what they add to the experience. All of the mods were downloaded from NexusMods.com. When modding becomes officially supported through the epic store we will explore that, but for now we will stick with Nexus Mods. Our basic overview for this series is based on the historical Russian WW1 Air Force unit nicknamed "The Night Witches." The 588th Night Bomber Regiment was one of three all female Soviet bomber regiments in WW1. They flew low altitude bombing missions in what were essentially crop dusters. You should definitely look them up and learn more about them. For game purposes this means that we will be employing only female mech jockeys and our main character will also be female. This is made possible by the Career MODe mode. Our full list of mods is as follows:
MW5 Compatibility pack
MW5 Mercs Reloaded (beta)
includes the Laser Fix and Thermal Vision mods
Yet another weapon
Hanger Spawn Location
Career MODe
Table Top Rulez Lancemate AI
includes the Sensor and Jump Jet mods.
Table Top Rulez Enemy AI
Table Top Rulez Rescale
Better Spawns
Ultra Visual and Weather
Paint Theme Saving
Techy Hud
Better Mechbay UI
Remove Jumpship Animation
Marketplace Equipment
MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries is a first person / sim game based on the Battletech tabletop universe. At launch it will include a campaign mode as well as solo and co-op instant action scenarios and custom scenarios. Modding will be supported. It is a fast paced, entertaining window into the Battletech universe from the makers of Mech Warrior Online. As I type this, it is in closed Beta accessible to pre-orders. It launches on Dec 10, 2019 and is available on the Epic Games Store.

This series is going to take a look at Yet Another Mech Lab and Silby's Yet Another Mech Lab Overhauled. We will be continuing to use 330s Pilot Overhaul and the TTRulez_AIMod2 along with a handful other mods that I've added in. We might experiment with some other mods as we go.
MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries is a first or third person shooter/simulator set in the Battletech Universe in which you manage a mercenary company attempting to survive in the Inner Sphere. There are two campaigns in the game. The first of which comes with the base game and a second which was added in the Legend of the Kestrel Lancers DLC. As the commander of the company you will move your mercs through the systems of the Inner Sphere to take accept contracts for the various factions. You will need to balance the finances of the company while also running one of the giant robotic battlemechs in missions, hire new pilots, and acquire new mechs and equipment so that your company can grow and thrive amongst the war torn future.
