I was tinking of buying one or the other during the sale. I already have the timbys and the stormcrows, so what would you buy?

I got the HBR:s, and I really like it. It has good hitboxes and feels responsive. Thank you for the input Dar1ng One!

Both are very good. I've dropped more in the HBR due to it being ECM friendly for CW. However, if you aren't worried about ECM, the WHK is a very mobile assault that can pack some sick firepower.
(Current favorite is running 2 UAC10s, 2 SRM4s and a medium pulse(to hitscan and then fire the UACs)

For the hellbringer, once ECM gets nerfed to 1/2 range, it'll be a bit less of a good 'Mech. It's got OK quirks, ECM, it's a clan heavy, it's omnipods are OK, and it lacks endo-steel or FF.
Warhawk has excelent mobility for an assault, absurdly good quirks, and limited hardpoints. Has both Endo and Ferro.
I love my Warhawk to death, but it's a personal choice.

Hellbringer doesn't have any quirks so far (doesn't need any imho). The "lacks" of endo and fibro isn't that bad either, the omni got enough tonnage to play arround with and also has the podspace to do so.

I personally think the hellbringer is a bit hyped up. It has low free tonnage and OK armor at best. Once ECM gets nerfed, there goes a good chunk of it's usefullness. Hardpoints are pretty nice, except on the low-mounted arms.

wait for ebon jaguars
hbr goes 2 erll+4 erml, but stormcrow vomit is way better, so HBR is shiet
whk is not for cw as well, but is a good pug drop push mech 2 uac10+3srm4 or meta 2lpl+2ml+1gauss

do yourself a favor and dont compare your rig to thunderbolt - hunchback, thunderbolt, stormcrow and timberwolf are not vomiting laser as good as the ebon jag, hellbringer, awesome, or blackjack these days.
ebon jag really good laservomit but the hellbringer is probably the best on the clan side.
if you manage not to lose ecm or your guns

honestly the wolverine, blr and banshee could well make the list before them - the range on wolverine is just absurd
the banshee is almost unkillable and battlemaster is very agile for it's massive size - no lie

The 1G's hideously reduced torso twist makes up for any mobility advantage, I think.
