Of all the mechs (apart from Unseen), are you most excited to see in MechWarrior Tactics?

Post away and answer below!

#1-Zeus.
The design and loadout are menacing and iconic, and just freakin scary.
Those shoulders!!! It's like Carl Malone donated them to a battlemech!


#2- Hatomoto Chi. 'nuff said.

(Also, FIRST!)

[TheDragon]

King Crab. Definitely King Crab. Not all that useful in open terrain, but MAN is it fun to watch people run away from those dual AC/20s

[Tesh]

The Cougar. There are a lot of great 'Mechs, but that one is one of my favorites... albeit largely from the MechCommander games. I'm not sure how well it would fare here... but I'd like to find out.

#1: Thorn
#2: Urbanmech

No but seriously, I would love to see the Zeus, the Dervish, and finally the Thorn.

[VictorWolf]

A Victor absolutly, both as it is my jock name but also beacause its 80 ton jump capable mech.

[Enaris]

Put me down for the Victor also. Yeah, a bit limited in some ways, but 80 tons of jumping doom. What's not to like?

After that, I've always been a fan of the Wolfhound.

[RoundTop]

Post clans, the NDA-1K No-Dachi (but it would require physicals for the sword). I just love that mech.
Pre-clans: Blackjack. It is long distance whittling at its best.

[ShinYodama]

The Awesome - love that 'mech!

[JPArbiter]

The Centurion, has always been and always will be my favorite machine in the game.

if I am shooting for the Stars, the Hammerhands

[GreyTemplar]

Zeus, wolfhound, victor, trebuchet.

But why worry about unseen? I've seen some of my favorite mechs butchered already. Why not do unseen? Already it'll be drastically different from the unseen designs that it'd be considered another version of reseen :/

[Wildcard]

_{Longbow would be my choice.}

[RonasAlabar]

I'm going to stick by my favourite SLDF downgrade: The Kintaro KTO-18 with three SRM-6s and ten heat sinks. Here's a picture:



Srsly, though, despite the fact it's a walking ammoboom, I would love to see it. If we have to stick with TRO '25, the Enforcer wouldn't be a bad choice. Since you guys have shown a rather fearless and unorthodox approach to 'Mech selection (-hugs Clint-), it isn't a longshot.

I'm not putting my usual hand up for GOL-1H because I can't stand the Reseen design. And also because quads are, for the moment, a pipe dream.

[Shuyung]

Assuming the Reseen are valid, I want a Shadow Hawk. It seems like everybody has a story about piloting a Shadow Hawk and getting some fantastic shot off. Other 'Mechs just don't bring the same good luck factor to the table.

[Swiftfire]

Thunderbolt and Black Hawk-KU

[Battalia]

I can't remember the year we are in off hand, but 3 'Mechs not on the list right now I didn't mind were the Orion, the Thug, and the Thunderbolt. As you can tell I don't mind a little weight on my 'Mechs

[RonasAlabar]

Orion is on the list. It's one of the three left from the original concept art that hasn't made it to turnaround yet.

[Xentax]

Ignoring year of availability: Cyclops, Uziel, Vulture, Thanatos, Dire Wolf, MadCat Mk II.

[fokker78]

Centurion!

[Dunkelzahn]

Hm, no unseen, that makes it rather difficult.

I´d have to go with the Victor, I guess.
Yes, it´s basicly a Hunchback on steroids, but come on, you just _have_ to love jumping around in BFG carrying assault.
