AC10 and XL125 is fun - now with the additional ammo boost you can squeak by with 2 tons.

I've barely let any other mechs out of the stables since the Urbies were unleashed. After 360* torso rotation, is there really any going back???

I've been toying around with AC 5's and standard engines, and they hold together really well and can still harass and evade well. Play like a medium and stay with the group!

Maybe you mean "play like a medium's AMS"?

Urbanmech lacks the white-knuckle speed of Locusts and Commandos so your LRM bait if you spend time out in the open. Our trashcan physiques are kept in better condition if we hang back and get intimate with the ECM Atlas' or snuggle up to a King Crab - let them take the incoming fire, and lay your big guns on any offending parties.

I believe he's referring to the Urbie's shape, insinuating that it looks like an AMS pod and isn't very much bigger.

He will of course suffer the vengeance of Urbie! Everywhere he goes an Urbie will be behind every corner, staring at him. Waiting. Watching. When will they strike? Why, when the time is right, naturally. No mech is more patient than the light mech who grew up being outrun by Atlases! Urbie is like the crocodile waiting under the surface of the for him to approach the water's edge, and then...

BAM!

360 degree deathroll!!!

:D

They should make statues that are shaped like Urbies in New River City so when I drop in with my Urbie and power down, I can do sneak attacks. And when I am the last one left, they will shoot all the statues just to figure out which one is me!!!

you don't even need to bigger engine to do decently in the urbie. none of my urbies break 74kph and only 1 has a kdr under 1.0 because I stuck with the ac10 build in one of them for a long time before dropping it down. I do wish they kept the stats for the 63S and 63 separate though- did better with the S for a long time

urbie 63S- AC 5 and 2 ML, std 120 engine 0.75kdr- 71kph
urbie 63- ac 2 and 2 MPL std 100 engine 0.75kdr- 64kph
urbie 60- ac 5 and 4 SPL xl 120 engine 1.21kdr- 71kph
urbie 60L- LPL,MPL and 4MG xl 125engine. 1.17kdr- 74kph

and long live the thread that does not die.

The only thing better than an Urbie is an Urbie riding a Hatchetman into battle

I expect nothing less!

Their low center of gravity allows them to carry an entire team more efficiently - if only at 32 kph...

Judging by the way the enemy team focuses me when I am in an Urbie, many people do fear him.
