Should be able to, and I am hoping, but I am trying not to get so eager on the thought that I get upset if it turns out that we cannot.

To be fair, the Alpha config, stock, comes with a Gauss Rifle in the arm anyways. If it can fit it, any can fit it. And if a Clan Gauss can fit, so can an Ultra-20 or LB20X.

So about the same height - Kitfox is pretty square though - Puma is (if I remember right) longer than it is tall.

I can live with this kind of difference between mechs 5 tons appart. But the timberwolf and maddog are supposed to share the same legs, and they are 15 tons apart. god forbid the vulture be bigger than the timberwolf

Looks okay, but it shouldn't have torso twist. Ruins the original aesthetic as well as the unique gameplay characteristics of this chassis. The same thing will inevitably occur with the Nova.

Next thing you know they'll be giving torso twist to the Jenner, Locust, and Cicada. Imagine how terrible that would be.

Yeah. Well, I guess you can consider it larger. I'd still say it's smaller, both head on and especially in the side profile.

Same height but bulkier.

Awesome and Victor are both about as wide and tall as eachother (in total extremities)

However - much more of the Awesome is pure body-bulk, thus giving it a worse shape.

Similar to the Kitfox and Puma there - same height, but the Puma has a bulkier body.

KYAAAAAAH IT'S SO KYOOOOOT!!!

I just wanna hug it and squeeze it and pet it and call it Jenny, Eater of Souls...!

Yeah, the 2nd useless clan light mech. Want to see Dire Wolf.

[WhoDidTheElf]

So uh, why does it have a SSRM 2 in some photos?

Is the S config available in the current timeline?

If you can put together a mix of ECM and JJs, this could be a pretty mean little *******, even if it's so slow.

FYI: An ultra AC 20 (or an LB20X with one ton cluster and one ton shot ammo) and 2 ERSLas fits in a Kit Fox with maxed out armor.

FYI 2.0: If the ECM Variant is released, you can fit an ERPPC, ERMLas, and SSRM6 with the ECM by using Prime arms on the Charlie core, with maxed armor.

Just throwing that out there.

The C configuration mounts 3 (three) AMS, an ECM and a probe, and the E has JJ also. Guess I may sell my CDA-3M after all. And mind you all, if they go for 3+3+3+3 again, this Jenner-sized medium will qualify as a light mech.

LBX-5!!!

and here i thought i was the only one to notice that. thought maybe i was going crazy.

[MonkeyCheese]

Just gotta say on the topic of ballistics on this thing, if myself and others can pull off an AC20 raven going 100kph than this thing with clan ballistics should be one hell of a drive for the crazy people like me out there.

MMmm, but it has A-Pods as well, according to Sarna.

I wondered about that, too. But upon closer inspection, I think that the missile tubes are just that bit deep in the arm launcher part that in those angled shots 2 of the tubes are not visible.

Yeah looks like you're right. Thanks for pointing it out.

oh so i guess the adder is not "noticeably larger" anymore

I'd say it's noticeably larger, as for what I've seen so far I'd have much easier time hitting it. I'm allowing YOU to consider it larger if you so wish, as you can pick whichever measurement you consider most important.

Sorry, english isn't my first language.

Well here are the stats, decide for yourself. If it was me i'd say equal at best.
