Awww, yeah....this is why the game needs destructable terrain:

[Tex Arcana]

Something nasty this way comes.

[PPO Kuro]

Woohhoo 2 more weeks for the Stalker! I'm as giddy as a school girl!

[Urza Mechwalker]

My plan.. fit 6 PPCs and run very veyr hot.

[JudgeDeathCZ]

6xERLL with 4xSRM6 will be better imho
You can cook up your ammo

[Lt Limpy]

Can't wait to blast these dongwalkers into the dirt.

[Shadowsword8]

I'll probably slap 6 LL and 4 SSRM on my first one, should be good as a mid-range CT puncher. Or just 6 LL for more heat sinks.

I've considered PPC, but they just heat too much, and the ER variant would be pretty much mandatory.

I also want to see if it is possible to stuff 4 LRM 20 on that monster.

Nice job on the MWO redesign. Sadly, it's still definitely near the top of my "Ugliest Mechwarrior Mechs of All Time" list. But you can only work with what you've got, and I imagine a blimp with legs can only take someone so far.

Might be fun to play; I'm liking the hardpoint quantity and layout. If I can somehow get over the fact that I'm piloting a large ugly metal zeppelin...

[Skyfaller]

man i want one for my b-day next week

[DegeneratePervert]

6x ER PPC sounds wonderful. No sarcasm, I can't wait to use it on caustic valley :3

[SpartanFiredog317]

Priority for loadout...... 1.) as close to 2 heat efficiency as possible with at least a 40 pt direct fire alpha(4-6 LPL/PPC)... 2.) fast as possible 3.) ECM (if ECM capable) 4.) 1 LRM rack for Long range harrassment, 5.) SRM/SSRM to keep up pressure when high heat

Ideally, take it to 70-90% of heat capacity, back down to zero by recycle time.... 40-60 damage about every 4-6 seconds. If you have enough space/tons, beams, wait for heat to drop to 50%, Missile, wait to clear heat, rinse and repeat. Should put a lot of hurt downrage just about every time you have lined up a good firing solution

[Terran123rd]

Finally. An assault that looks like a proper walking tank.

Dear Santa......

[Marineballer]

13 days to impact

Yup. Until they properly make DHS actually cool at 2.0x, I suspect a lot of Stalkers will be sitting very prone from overheating very often.

[Redshift2k5]

I can already run 4x large laser on a 65 ton mech just fine with 1.4 DHS.

13 free critical slots and a whopping 20 additional tons will go a long way
