So it's a QKD-5K in a Griffin's body... I'll take it!

Edit: with the double energy slots being in the arms instead of the torsos.

I was worried for the griffin hero but that looks good!

but since most griffins favor the right side it might be kinda op (for griffins thou not in general)

edit: I looked on sarna and this is a canon hero mech! sweet!

Oh wow, Sparky! Finally a hero I recognize from my TRO books. Already knew about Yen-Lo and HM from the card game, so this is the first hero since then.

What? A balanced Griffin loadout? And no missiles?

Interesting.

Sad there's no backstory or a full body pic.

**** yeah. The main problem with the Griffin is that losing one side disarms most variants completely. This trades missile hardpoints for the ability to always be fighting when half dead.

That's one nice Griffin right there, PPC in each torso and 4 ML in the arms, that's gonna be a nasty jumpsniper.

I don't. I like the Griffin and Sparky, but lore indicates it belonged to an infamous unit:

Sarna readout:

Quote

The unit's actions on Kentares were called 'brutal', as they assisted Roland in savagely oppressing the citizens of Kentares.


Basically we have mech of a "Bad Guys". :)

sparky quirk, -45% to leg health if used for "jumpsniping" AKA poptarting.
