Jagdraben Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 You mean Marauder IIC, right? The better, assault class version of the Marauder. The Marauder IIC is Clan. Any 'Mech with the -IIC designation is basically a Clan version of an IS 'Mech (because the Clans took some of the old things with them when they left and updated them as they went). The Marauder II is an Assault-class version of the Marauder. In the setting of the game, the Marauder II would be practically brand new, having been introduced only three years before the events of the game. You choose those and you call yourself a clanner? The correct IS mech for you to choose is the Orion, personal mech of Kerensky himself. But I am not Alexander Kerensky. And he, in his wisdom, would have recognized the folly of having an entire army arrayed in the exact same BattleMech. (And I'm quite certain that Nicholas Kerensky chose a different 'Mech, entirely.)

WeirdoTransvestite Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Duh. I know that. That's why I called it better. Assault class doesn't make it better, being clan does. I actually prefer heavies. Firepower without being a turret. btw, Marauder IIC is an 85 ton assault mech. http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Marauder_IIC Link to post Share on other sites
Punkypink Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Atlas! FEE FI FO FUM! If ever there was a mech that was death personified and THEN mechified, it's the Atlas. SLDF design too, what's not to like? Medium mechs, I love the Uziel Link to post Share on other sites
WeirdoTransvestite Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Uziel was great. Dual PPCs on a medium mech *drools* My favorite assault mech was the Mauler. Too bad it's too young to be in this game. My favorite IS heavy is the warhammer though. Too bad it got blow'd up in the trailer. Link to post Share on other sites

Firepower without being a turret. btw, Marauder IIC is an 85 ton assault mech. http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Marauder_IIC I know that, too. I actually prefer Medium-class BattleOmniMechs. Light enough that you have to make some compromises but heavy enough to still get enough armor and weapons that they can pack a punch and enough armor to take the hits they cannot dodge but enough speed to dodge the hits they cannot take. The Stormcrow is my 'Mech of choice, especially Variants B and C. But I also have soft spots for both the Mad and the Cat and the Timber Wolf and the Mad Dog and even the Gyrfalcon. (And the Kit Fox. And the Nova. And the Warhawk.) EDIT: And the Mad Cat IV. Although it's practically identical to the Timber Wolf, it just looks (IMHO) slightly more awesome-sauce. Link to post Share on other sites
Punkypink Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 As far as electronics warfare mechs go, House Liao's Men Shen is a winner. Probably the heaviest mech that could do what a Raven could do. Link to post Share on other sites
masakarijoe Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 well, of all time, my favorite mechs are, in order: Clan: Masakari Madcat Vulture Daishi Thor Loki IS: Zeus Catapult Mauler Templar Warhammer Marauder but most of those wouldnt make it to this game, unfortunately. still got the catapult and zeus though. and here's me getting punched by an atlas ouch -Joe Link to post Share on other sites

Punkypink Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Kit Fox aka known as the Uller to Stravags. Link to post Share on other sites
Spedz Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 I was going to say Uller, seeming were talking about Clanner Mechs The cougar is pretty cool as a light mech. Link to post Share on other sites
cazboab Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 I liked the kitfox(uller) in mw4, cos even though it was little it could rock out with an er ppc, plus it looks a bit like shockwave especialy if you give it a purple camo skin. Link to post Share on other sites
Punkypink Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 I've always wondered about the Turknia. Must be the widest one I know! Funny but I don't like most Jade Falcon designs. While we're on the subject of weird looking mechs. For lols: Link to post Share on other sites
Chevieblazer Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Yay! the Humpty-Dumpty...uhh Urbiemech! Since this is 3015, there likely won't be any Uziels or Templars. The Templar was first fielded around 3060, the Uziel even later. This will be all about Warhammers, Marauders (3D, of course), Battlemasters, Awesomes, Riflemans, Phoenix Hawks, Shadow Hawks...

WeirdoTransvestite Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Not too much wrong with that except that IS weapons weigh too damn much. 11 tons for a LRM 20 + ammo? Yeesh. Oh ######. I just remembered. Ultra Autocannons were Lostech in the Inner Sphere until 3057 *cries* As for Clan light 'Mechs, what about the Adder (Puma)? Dual ERPPCs on a 35 ton chassis. Neat.

ruvon Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 I'm crying with tears of joy right now. I just...I played MW:4MERCS with the expansion packs up until I found airsofting...I've been...I just... Just don't know what to say....JOY! Now I need to start plotting out the new machine to play this on...... Timberwolfs and Madcats MK2's for me.... Sigh...Mechwarrior....sigh..... Link to post Share on other sites
Jagdraben Posted July 10, 2009 Report Share Posted July 10, 2009 Funny but I don't like most Jade Falcon designs. While we're on the subject of weird looking mechs. And now I combine the two and create... the Gyrfalcon! I actually like the Dark Age Falcon 'Mechs, though. Link to post Share on other sites
