Actually this is a good strategy because of crappy netcode.One game i dropped with tom and fox (propably thats where he got the idea) a totem consisting of an Atlas 3x15lrm on the bottom and a c4 cat 4x15lrm on the top ripping us apart.Now heres the trik.Due to the crappy netcode the atlas nor the cat suffered collision dmg and most of all since they were standing in the same spot the atlas was taking all the damage even if you was shooting the cat and as we know the damage threshold of the atlas is much greater than the cats.By doing that they had an asault with 7x15lrm , tag , 2mls , 1large and a ppc.To make it even better the torso of the cat could also move to a different position than the atlases with all the advantages this has.
p.s.This is cheating and as Fox said (and i agree 100%) the 4th will never try this in a drop.(other than fun it is).
But if I have jump jets and you are in front of me, well, I try to land on everything, so far the only mechs I have not landed on are a commando and a spider. And I just can't get them to hold still long enough.... that and they are a little tiny ass target!
