Yup. Other than the rare vehicle that has jumpjets, you're not clearing a level 2 obstruction in a tank.

Let's see what Sarna says...
Yeah, that's one gym routine I could do without. Woman looks like she's getting ready to give Bruce Wayne a backbreaker as a warmup before moving on to the Hulk.

Kind of wonder if you could do a DFA with a Kanga without losing the Kanga.

But think about all the kinky shit she can do.
also, kinda related:
Artist's rendition of Randolph P. Checkers (aka: Tex) and his marriage to a Ghost Bear Elemental.
Do the rules even cover DFA for vehicles? I mean, it would directly damage the motive systems of the Kanga, so unless you role obscenely good, the thing won't be moving afterwards.
But it would make for a great cinematic shot in a TV show or something like that.

Mobility, or even being alive afterwards, is entirely secondary to the fact you just pulled off a DFA on a 'Mech with a CV. I can think of no finer way to end up in Valhalla, all shiny and chrome.
I had a quick look at the main rules, and if we go by 'Mech rules for it, the Kanga takes 10 damage using LRM hit clusters (attacker weight divided by 5), distributed across the kick attack location table, in exchange for dealing 15 across a BattleMech's arms, head and torso, in 5 point clusters akin to an LRM (attacker weight divided by 10, then multiplied by 3). Radical, awesome, almost guaranteed to end with you celebrating in the afterlife, but not really worth it in terms of military matters.

That is pretty neat, but I think you'd do better to ambush a mech in level 1 water and charge the fucker guns blazing. It demands that there's a body of water and that the enemy is stupid enough to enter it within reach of your hovertanks, but at least it's possible with standard rules... even though it is a worthy way to ride to Valhalla, shiny and chrome.

Don't forget that Clan warriors tend to not have huge hangups about sex. So if you asked nicely she might do some fairly interesting things to you if she liked you. Granted, you might be in a body cast afterwards, but what a night!

If one was to play on a swamp map, I'd say the chances of that are pretty damn high, simply because if he doesn't enter the water he's forced to march along an entirely predictable course. At least unlike an urban map there's no risk of basements since all of the water hexes are marked for depth... although wouldn't it be fun if there was a chance of sinkhole on the water tiles?
Both the workout regime and the Elemental sex happened to Phelan Kell thanks to Evantha Fetladral, who was as gentle about it as you might expect. Were he not a protag I doubt he would have survived either.

It's definetly an interesting houserule to consider.
HBS BT game has a couple of interesting tile-types such as radioactive or corrosive, that give bonuses or penalties. It's interesting to use those things in CBT to spice things up a little. CBT already has a lot of interesting optional rules for various tiles, such as industrial buildings that can explode.

When was that? I know Phelan slept with Ranna, but I wasn't aware he did the horizontal bop with Evantha (though... heh... he did punch her out once, and she didn't hold a grudge over it. Saved his ass when the Clan flagship got kamikazed by Tyra Miraborg).

Ah, its been a while, so you're right about his lover. He still had to deal with her workout regime, though, which is life-threatening enough on its own given she might have been able to turn Hans and Franz into streetlamp decorations.

Jesus a literal fucking "snusnu" moment for Phelan. I mean... worse ways to go.

I mean... he's a protag. Same magical healing powers that let Kai Allard-Liao recuperate from countless injuries while running around a jungle pursued by angry Elementals. Yes he technically had a doctor with him giving him expert care the whole time, but you don't heal up like you're getting 24/7 bedrest when you're running around with limited food and water no matter how good your physician is.

You guys are reminding me once more why I hate most of the FedCom Civil War cast all over again. Bigger Mary Sues than Classic Battletech had.

idk I think the risk of serious injury might just make the idea of shagging someone who can effortlessly bench-press YOU even more attractive to some people.

I think the lesson to be learned here is: if you're crazy enough to go for an Elemental lady, get one who's into doggy-style. Or getting tied up. Clanners have so many weird hang-ups and such a regimented life, I would not be surprised if a good number of them were into kinky BDSM shit in their free time.

It's superior traditional chinese medicine at work. He got powdered fire cat penises rubbed into the wounds and that healed them in record time while also improving the prowess of his manhood.

To be fair, given that kink sex tends to be about inverting one's ordinary life, the idea that a female Elemental would be a major sub is more likely than not. I mean, the chances of running into a straight male Fortune 500 CEO who doesn't enjoying having hot women torture him in the guise of sex is pretty minimal. And given how strangely open about sex Clans and especially trueborn are, I guarantee you there's a thriving open trade (at least in the Inner Sphere), of porn of female Elementals getting their asses wrecked by tiny-ass ASF pilots, all largely purchased by said female Elementals. I mean, you really think Clan Happy Merchant didn't run a PornHub copy on the side in Clan space? You probably think they invented the Chatterweb for serious sociopolitical discussion, too.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Easy there, pardner. Don't go besmirching Clan Happy Merchant's sterling reputation with such dishonorable and slanderous terms or they'll buy your planet right out from under your feet.
Kerensky forbid there be porn among the Clans. No, no. I'm sure the Diamond Sharks had a thriving trade in tasteful, stimulating, short-form holovids, meant to be consumed only by honorable off-duty Warriors.
Pay no mind to the "banned in Clan Blood Spirit!" and "Cloud Cobra Elementals like you've never seen them before!" stickers plastered all over the jewel case, of course. Some dezgra put them there while no one was looking.
