As you can see, we've only got a limited selection of guides so far, but that's where you can help out!  If you like, write a guide and let me know or post them here and I'll put it up for all of Illal to see. Doesn't matter if it's simple or complex, as long as it's helpful it deserves a spot here! I'll be digging through the depths of the forums and locating all the still relevant guides I can to put them up here.

Decided to put this up because I don't think there a thread where mech guides have been compiled before. This hopefully should make it easier for new and old players alike to seek information on specific mechs and their playstyles, loadouts, builds, etc.

Reserved for anything else I need to put.

[Silverfire]

Updated with more guides from the Steam group!

[Wraithknight]

Thank you very much for consolidating all the guides into one post, very helpful!

[Lightangel112]

I second that, I was thinking about if such a thread was already here or doing it myself, so thank you.
Glad to see 2 of my guides are there as well

[Silverfire]

thank you for writing the guide so I can put it up! If you have any more guides to write, let me know so I can add them on my compilation as well

I'm gonna be putting together a series of videos on all the mechs, in the near future. I just need a few more of the weapons to have them all.

I will see if anymore will be written. I might do

[Silverfire]

Blump. If anyone needs a mech guide, it's probably here!

[SquirrelDash]

oh, my guide is in here!  neat, I'm flattered! I hope that this compilation gets some attention, something like this should be stickied for easy access.

[Silverfire]

Updated for more video guide goodness!

[Sadistic_Dentist]

Gee, thanks man! This should be pinned!

[Silverfire]

Many thanks to ZC for the sticky!

Love you ZC
