I present to you record sheet, the holy of holies, the actuator was already gone, they always make a mech based on a record sheet, if they add the king crab, they will make crit split http://goodsects.got...te/pdf/4859.pdf


Man, do you know how long its been since I have used one of those sheets... 15 plus years. Way to take me back lol.

Also if its a Victor.... F*** YEAH!!!

PGI said in Ask The Devs #38 that they don't plan on crit-splitting for quite a while if ever (I don't remember the exact words), so King Crab is out of the question completely. B)


But they still made HGN-733C.

According to the story http://mwomercs.com/...emech-20-victor
I think its this one...

Sarna:

VTR-9D - An upgrade using Star League technology, the 9D replaces the Autocannon/20 with a Gauss Rifle which can do serious damage at much greater ranges. The 'Mech also carries two Medium Pulse Lasers and a SRM-4 launcher for close combat. In order to make these changes possible, the 9D is built on an Endo Steel chassis. With the weight saved the 'Mech also carries an additional ton of armor[7]. BV (1.0) = 1,634, BV (2.0) = 1,717[7]

Not quite triple, the 9A can do doubles.

Interesting. I had my money on the Banshee.

That being said, the Victor is a great mech. Stock, it will be the Heavy Metal's little brother. But faster.

It would be cool if they did use the 9A too. Dual heavy ballistic but with a split arm/torso arrangement to make it a challenge for pilots to use.

I hope it has that cool racing stripe like the concept art.

Looks badass.

It also completely obsoletes the Awesome.

And then you find out what a Hatamoto Chi is, and you pee your pants realizing that is an 80 Ton Samurai

Loadout wise, the Hatamoto-Chi is functionally the same as the Awesome 8T though. 80 ton with an energy in each arm, and a missile in each torso. It does go faster.
