With 1 slot of each type in each arm and each side torso, and a missile slot in each leg (srm6 launchers mounted on the sides of the legs).

Ideally it should be called the DAKKA, but I'll leave it to cooler heads to name it.

They will probably catch all the ones without a hero or founders first.

[Tennex]

give us better champion boosts!

[Sephlock]

What would a hero stalker even have? Ballistic slots?

[Sephlock]

And what the hell is left to be added to the Raven? What would the end result of hero-ificiation eve look like?:

It should have a burning skull and glowing red eyes.

And to balance that out, 300% of the armor of a normal atlas. And 300% of the internal structure points.

And a big flashing red "Win" button right in the middle of the cockpit, no other buttons are even there, and the pilot presses that, and only that, on the startup sequence animation.



Like this but red translucent plastic with a flashing backlight.

Atlases need to live up to their iconic status as nightmarish zombie mechs that can take an unholy amount of punishment before going down, like two legged tank versions of the A-10.

[DCLXVI]

save the atlas for last, every MC mech released seems to improve in quality, thought and extras. wait till they get good at making heros, then ask for the real champion (or ask them for multiple hero mechs per chassis, I just don't wanna get stuck with a crappy version of the only mech I drive XD)

I'd certainly buy one I love my atlas, maybe we could have it as an atlas II it would fit as they existed before kerensky left the sphere and would make it look different even if it used the same tech as a standard atlas.

Weapon mounts in legs wont work. You would need a third retical. PGI can't do third reticals atm.

[SgtMagor]

Hero Atlas would be the AS7-D-H2:
2-erppc
1-gauss
1-lrm20
1-srm6
2-med pulse
FF armor
case
double heat sinks
300std engine
BAP
Artemis
paint job- custom with stripes that looks like a skeleton-
Name-BoneWrencher

[CheeseThief]

They should release the Atlas II as the hero mech.

Now that would be something really special that I'd throw money at.

[Appogee]

Let's give it a third leg while we're at it.

It can be the 'DCK' variant.

closest thing I can find to that is: AS7-K2 Atlas Jedra - Used by Lord Jedra Kean of Vega this variant of the Atlas removed the standard weaponry. Each arm carried a Light Gauss Rifle. The right and left torsos each carried a pair of ER Medium Lasers and a single SRM 4. The center torso carried a single ER Medium Laser. The armor protection, heat sinks, and ground performance remained identical to a standard AS7-K2. BV (2.0) = 1,971^[32]

Just so long as we avoid this:
