Heh, I used a Hollander in a Mechcommander 2 mission a couple of nights ago. He laid down some good hits but ran out of ammo quickly....had to call in a repair vehicle to top his ammo up

Has to be either the Mad Cat, or Unseen Marauder.
Both have similar design elements, and have a very fond place in my heart. We tend to play only 3025-3050 once it gets 3060+ things do tend to get a little crazy. But I do have a Madcat II model floating around that I think is pretty cool as well. -------------------- |

Hmmm
Well the Mauler and Awesome for heavy mech. Just the look does it for me! As for light mechs I'm a fan of the Locust, I really like it either unseen or remodeled. -------------------- Lupercal!

I am still catching up on everything that has happened since OP Serpent/OP Bulldog, so I am not familiar with the Blitzkrieg. Firepower looks good, it is only lightly armoured for a medium mech but with a decent turn of speed that should make it harder to hit and allow it to get in behind the opposition units it certainly looks like a Hollander III. My only concern would be the lack of range for the Ultra AC/20, I would prefer the range of a Gauss Rifle. -------------------- Incoming fire has the right of way.

I prefer some of the variants of the older mechs popular in tournaments for 3025. For lights the Jenner mounting just Medium Lasers and the Mongoose. For Mediums the PPC Cicada, and the Wolverine (Kurita Variant). For Heavies I like the 3025 Grasshopper and Guillotine and Warhammer Mounting just Medium lasers and PPCs. The Atlas and the upgraded Charger used by Kurita that uses an AC20 and LRMs are my favourites.
I also like the Cataphract and Caesar mechs, as well as the Phoenix Hawk - especially the latest batch which have some exceptional tech upgrades. Speaking about upgrading mechs, we have an Assault mech used by a gamer in my local Battletech group, who has been running it for the last 6 years over 4 campaigns and has not had to do much more than replace armour, weapons, some internal structure, and some engine crits now and then. I can not believe the ammount of damage his mech has caused and how many times he has pulled us out of the frying pan and away from the fire. It is a standard Charger 1A1, that has had TSM added, the heatsinks reduced and upgraded to doubles. It originally had IS Medium Pulse Lasers, but now has Clan Medium Pulse Lasers and an ECM Suite. I think the Armour has been upgraded to Fero Fibrous to save on tonnage. It is a nightmare to go against when used in support of the rest of our mercenary company, which by now has 3 Clan, and 4 IS Omni-mechs, filled out by regular IS Mechs and supported by IS and Clan Battle Armour. -------------------- The world is chaotic, so why not join the party.

Got to be the Awesome AWS-9Q.
Why? Because its Awesome. A true Brick of a Mech that has no weak spots. No XL Engine to worry about ECM, 4 x PPC that can safely fire in a 4/4/3 combo without having to worry about heat. After that maybe the Ostscout OTT-10CS variant because it is just so fast. A good Mech to compliment an IC3 system -------------------- Hutch
