'LANCER is the tabletop role playing game of mech combat created by Tom Parkinson-Morgan and Miguel Lopez. It is currently in public beta. Each player takes the role of an upcoming mech pilot in the tumultuous year of 5014. The game features robust mech customization and deadly tactical combat.'
Beta materials. The also has some neat stuff, including a Q and A thread, and to pimp out my own stuff, a thread for new opponents. Lancer is fusion of a lite narrative game (the Pilot gameplay) with crunchy, but simple, mech combat.
I've been obsessed with it for the past few weeks, as my RPG group will confirm. I like the setting, the lack of sentient aliens and widespread humans reminds me of old-school sci-fi. The mechs feel like a mix of Battletech (with hardpoint and heat mechanics) and Titanfall (with the overall scale and tactical approach). I'm greatly looking forward to this coming out of beta and getting a full release, if only for more lore. I keep reading through and I guess I am getting lost.
What is the killer app of this game? Like what does it bring that Dreampod 9(heavy gear, Jovian Chronicles), Mekton, or Battletech do not?
If that makes sense. It looks interesting and I will continue to follow its development, but I just can't figure out what to be excited about.Well, it's simpler than most of those, I'd venture, having only browsed a couple Heavy Gear books. Pilots only have personality traits (which are also HP outside the mech) and talents; mechs start at 13 points to spend and capping at 27 if you don't 'multiclass', whereas if I understand a grunt-level mech in Mekton is about 100. I'm a fan of one of the authors; that's how a lot of people heard about it. The setting is unique, and I am familiar with the settings of the games you mentioned; Lancer's 'verse is a mix of old-school Starship Troopers/Asimov era sci-fi with more modern takes on AI and resources. The mechs themselves have a Titanfall feel, at least in size (ranging from 'just barely larger than a suit of power armor' to 'small building'), though dismounting your mech and fighting alongside it is probably a bad idea.
Plus, can you say that any of those other games have you print your mechs? I really like the premise, and the progression system is both unique and helps stem the 'too many options' issue that is common to the genre. It would be nice if there was more support for non-mech vehicles like tanks, planes, hovercraft and such. Overall though, i really like the way the various weapons and systems work together to form a quasi 'class' system, though some system properties remain confusing, for example; 1) There seems to be no mechanical difference between Heavy and Superheavy weapons, so why the separate category? 2) Drones and Missile locks are stated to hit automatically as your End-Of-Round Action, but it is not clear if that means ALL of them or just ONE should you happen to have more than one weapon or system making use of the EoR.

Later in the book there is a Tank enemy NPC with a Treads trait that simply has them treat all Difficult Terrain as Normal. And while it is made clear that enemies and players operate under different rules and I have no issue with that in general, this particular example just rubs the wrong way, since as a player, if I wanted to make a Tank-like mecha, and then fought against actual tanks, one of the core WEAKNESSES (navigating difficult terrain) of running a treaded vehicle as a PC is not only ignored but is actually a STRENGTH of enemy treaded vehicles. I can answer at least two of your questions; Heavy/Superheavy weapons generate different amounts of Heat when fired while Overcharging; I had the same issue at first.
