Include the chassis (and call-sign if the enemy mech has been previously targeted), so that the rest of the team knows which mech not to worry about any longer.
Example:
FriendlyAlice has killed EvilBob (F) [BLR-2C]
Case 2: Enemy Mech kills a Friendly Mech
Include the chassis (and call-sign if the enemy mech has been previously targeted), so that the rest of the team knows what killed their teammate.
Also show the chassis of the friendly mech. This gives the team immediate information on the battlefield as to how to react. If a 100-ton friendly mech dies, we might have to regroup. If it's a 20-ton friendly mech, then we react accordingly.
Example:
EvilCharlie (H) [K-9] has killed FriendlyDave [NVA-C]
Option: Displaying the chassis in these messages during Faction Play could be an extra feature of the Combat ID bonus provided through Scouting.
