Maybe, but I thought a light hero was a sure thing this time around too. We might get another curveball come next month too.

Typical Davion lies and blasphemy. If you'd learn to embrace Assaults you wouldnt NEED to drop 3 Regiments to smash 1 Liao Regiment.....

If not for the big Spitfire-ish eye and mouth, I would perhaps buy this mech. Looks good.


Actually, that's one of the things that has me sold. I WILL own this mech!

I was intrigued until I remembered Yen Lo Wang, Fang, and Pretty Baby... now I'm cautiously optimistic

Wow, looks like my brawling 3F and 5M will have a party targeting its LT which is so easy to hit on a Stalker. Also, it breaks the nice symmetry (or near symmetry) of the other Stalker variants so I won't be getting it. I spent all my MC on mechbays already anyway.

Pfft, AS7-RS is way ahead of you.


Yea, I hope Misery isn't just an Atlas RS with less armor and tonnage to work with. Misery is pretty awesome looking..probably the best looking hero mech to date, but 1 gauss plus 4 energy points and a couple useless missile points is pretty much the RS, and with that kind of hardpoint configuration, I'm not sure I'd really be interested. ;)

On the plus side it'll do it with high mounted energy hardpoints, rather than low arm mounted ones, it'll also have 4 more crit slots due to missing actuators.

Been waiting for this puppy for a while. I really like what I can do in a Stalker, and now I'll be able to get a bonus on top of everything else.

I like the paint too.

PGI may have gotten me to reopen my wallet.

It seems likely, given that the X5 turned out to be a giant jenner...

So now the PPC stalker can take a gauss too and have more sustained DPS since it can take a heatless sniper weapon too.

Great idea.

dont worry, I bet the people that will be playing this mech would be playing assaults anyways, so you won't actually see more assaults, just different assaults ;)


Not really. With the missile fixes and more HSR going in, and ECM getting a hard counter. I think lights are going to drop off even more.

Playing one shot warrior online is only so much fun when you realize you're getting 1/4th the cbills as the poptards.

You forgot how it can be de-torso'd even faster than normal stalkers thanks to 20pts of exploding weapon damage.

Everyone seems to be forgetting that.

Eh...I just didn't want two assault heroes in a row. Lights need some serious loving and the flea got massively delayed.

Is this mech based off of a Wolf's Dragoon's mech? http://www.sarna.net..._Elliot_Jamison

I've always thought a machine gun is exactly what my Stalker needs to really pack that extra punch.
