*uses mind powers to make teh devs put all his fave mechs in the game* and now only a Dervish and a Blitzkrieg to complete the set! Although I think the blitz would be out of era IIRC. can still get a dervish though!

[StarSlayer40]

Sweet, I really like the Stalker for an assault 'mech!
I love this rendering for it by the way, great job guys!
Also, nice story there, like all of the previous 'mechs we've seen.

[Odanan]

There are so many cool variants that's hard to choose. Still, the STK-3Fb ( http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Stalker ) with ECM and all-long-range weapons would do a great sniper. Oh, that's it.

PGI do love their armless designs, don't they ? (Jenner, Cicada, Catapult, now the Stalker)

Thought of it too. On average we have only 10 hand actuators per 12 mechs now.

Was hoping and praying for the King Crab, but I must say the loadout on this thing is mean, and it's much better looking than it's original artwork. Love the stocky look. Never really been a fan, but that loadout is difficult to say no to! Versatile, and evenly spread between ammo and energy based weapons!

[Malikai Constant]

Wow...fantastic job!

I'll definitley want some seat time in one of those.

[Deathz Jester]

Usually dont pilot assault but this may make me want to.

[Rizdaw]

Stalker? Yaaaaaaaaaaay!

[Kenyon Burguess]

very nice. looks much more balanced verses past pictures. good story too

[Gozer]

WOO! Two of my favorite mechs are in the game! My Awesome and my Stalker! Woo I guess I'm going to be an Assault pilot for a while until they get around to releasing the mediums and lights I want.

[Redshift2k5]

Would have preferred a King Crab. Atlas is still my Assault of choice due to it's more varied loadout/hardpoint options.

although LRMs, SRMs, large lasers, and m.lasers is pretty tempting

[Alistair Steiner]

How? How did FD make this look acceptable? When someone copy-pasted this in the SR forums, I thought he was joking around. Heck, I still thought Paul was messing with us when I saw the post. Was not expecting this 'Mech, considering all I knew about it was from someone linking me a pic of a die-cast model of it after saying, "here's the ugliest 'Mech in the BT universe."

If this isn't some E3 prank, then I am thoroughly impressed. Yet another 'Mech to study up on, which, to me, is a good thing.

I am a little confused about this mech. I just don't see the need for it. When you look at the known variants on Sarna, this mech is basically an energy / missile platform . . . and with the Awesome at 80 tons already announced, I'm at a loss as to what we really gained here. 5 tons? That's it?

I really think we needed something in the 90T range, and with some ballistic variants.

I really like that painted armed turtle (or whatever that is) on the side.

Merc unit insignia, the unit Grim Determination.

[FactorlanP]

Now that is pretty sexy!

[Chuckie]

Called this a while ago.. It really fit the way the loadouts of what they had been picking.

Although I LOVE the fact they put the AWESOME in .. I had figured this was the mech they would call out instead of the Awesome.. Glad we got both.

Now where is my Highlander..??

Kind of why I REALLY thought this would be a Highlander, as the Highlander is 90 tons, and has JJs..

Even though I wanted of all mechs the AWESOME.. I had thought the three assualts would have been Atlas, Stalker, and Highlander..

OH well, I LIKE IT

[Mechwarrior Fyyar]

Woot! I always thought the stalker was not a very good mech when I first saw it. Now I like it and this is going to be my assault mech!

Anyways, liking the atlas: too mainstream.
