Just saying.

We'll see.

[Lucky Moniker]

judging by the silhouette i would think yes

[Tennex]

judging from the concept i'd say yes.

though they have said that they don't add aesthetic features just cuz.

Remember that they can't use the unseen images and the official reseen models have gear shoulders.

I don't mind but I really hope they keep the bubble canopy. That's what makes a Battlemaster a Battlemaster imo.

I'd be sad to see the battlemaster curvy cockpit become a box cockpit

Bubble cockpit and gear shoulders are basically what make a Battlemaster a Battlemaster.

[Hexenhammer]

Gear shoulder BattleMaster

The unseen model didn't have gears. It had retangular shoulders with ridges on it, not an obvious curved gear shape.

Good thing there's a run down barn in the background to give us some perspective on size.

Oh you're talking about the pic and there's an actual barn in the background.

Thats true, but they don't do curves. Look at the Jagermech.

Could have turned out a lot worse. I am pleased (though the 3D game model will probably ruin it for me anyway)

A picture might add 10pds but MWO adds 10meters to the chest. The Thunderbolt is going to be wider the Awesome.

translated OK into Miniature form, though......

You know, I'm just happy to have the Battlemaster. I've read about it for years and now I get to pilot it. Yes, the "pistol" is gone and the shoulders are weird. But I still want to pilot it.

[Angel of Annihilation]

Personally I think the shoulders look alot like heat sinks or heat radiators and that is kind of cool.
