An Awesome with ballistics and jumpjets? Sold.

[FrostCollar]

Ah, they got me! I was pretty sure it would be the Banshee.

So then, now the question that I've seen and posted in the past about the Victor is more important. So, for anyone that likes the Victor, please tell me:

What can the Victor do that the Highlander can't?

Run faster and jump higher...

Plus we may get a few more ballistic hard points. Triple gauss anyone?

Doesn't sound that impressive to me. If people want the pop assault, they'll go for the Highlander. If they want the speed, they'll go with the 'phract 3D. I'm not sure how interesting a new intermediate option will be. Anyways, ballistic hard points have always been the least useful to have in large numbers. The minimum useful weapon will cost you at least 7 tons, after all (6 tons + 1 ton ammo).

Yawn.

[Tennex]

hope it will be sized right. should be a bit smaller than the highlander

[Truesight]

Big XL Engine, AC/20, 2x LPL, its basically an AC/40 Jager on steroids, with Jumpjets and maybe faster alltogether..

SOLD!

If it has favorable hardpoints than the Highlander (like putting missiles on one side and direct fire on the other), it would get massive consideration.

At the very least, you've eliminated the Awesome as a viable mech.

[LordBraxton]

People will change their tune when they see my Victor running around at 80KPH, with JJs

SO PUMPED FOR THIS

I love the awesome, but I always wished for a skinny awesome with jump jets and ballistics

Guess what?

HERE HE COMES

between the Orion and Victor I am gonna have to get grinding
