Look like a polyvalent, nice little death machine. You can probably put 2 AC20, 2 PPC on that thing for a nice 60 damage strike for only a moderate amount of heat genetated.

But it also look pretty wide, with each part of the chassis apparently easy to single out to focus damage on, and most of the torso would be vulnerable in ridge fighting. Besides, the projectile mounts that far apart are going to present issues in fighting among buildings.

The Stalker is going to remain my favorite, I guess.

Still, nice mech, I'll take it. :)

Yeah, that's 42tons of weaponry, not including ammo, on a 65ton mech.
I look forward to everyone who overloads a Jagermech and ends up moving about 40kph with an XL engine and very easy to shoot arms...

Jagermech doesn't have JJs.

It looks like it will have the "Awesome" or "Dragon" syndrome meaning a huge "SHOOT ME" center torso. This looks like the perfect mech to torso twist as well. Those sides look like perfect CT shields.

i'd say the big legs is a nod to the fire support and AA role that calls for a very stable platform especially if you are doing the wild torso twising that is needed for AA support.




IDD - I like it, I don't want no skinny, knee-knocking legs on a mech, I want big manly tree trunk legs. :)

but they sell air fresheners now!


Oh dear lord... The smell of an airfreshener mixed with probably 300 years worth of ground-in sweat, dirt and blood. Then add the heatlevel inside a Battlemech cockpit.

I think I just threw up a little from the very idea of what that stench would be like. Battlemechs definitely aren't for those with a low threshold for bad smells.

ACs, LRMs, Lasers...
Covers all bases, and I actually like the look of the JagerMech for the first time in BattleTech history!

If they're gonna give it big-*** missle box wings...sure would be nice to have 2 missle hardpoints there. Sadly, It probablly won;t happen. Most builds are just gonna dump an SRM6 in the arm...wasting so many graphical tubes with only one hardpoint.

Quad SRM6s and Dual UAC/5s would have really given the 'pult a run for it's money...sigh
