I got this idea from when I used to be fairly active on the mektek (are we allowed to say that here?) forums. Basically its a simple game where an Image is posted of a battlemech, with no name and everyone tries to guess what it is. Originally on mektek it was no more than someone posting a cleverly written riddle. Might seem stupid but its a little something to pass the time. First person to get it right has to post the next image/riddle.

"My predecessor was a force to be feared in the days of old
a juggernaut that made even assaults tremble
the belt that gave the warrior his strength
the clan engineering that made me the superior"

Example from the original idea, He was describing the Orion IIC.


Preferably use images that are just the mech itself or an action shot. It can be from any angle, I encourage people to find images that are harder to identify.


Also any image that I post is property of the original creator and/or website it is from. I did not make any of these.

Yes Summoner, I was thinking Thunderbolt, until I noticed the lack of hand actuators. I its also kind a clan blocky.

Ha! that is the only book I have been unable to get my hands on (mostly because i"m lazy), but I digress, that sir would be a Battemaster.

Teardonia is next poster!

Here's a mech riddle in limerick form:

There once was a medium mech
Developed by clans and their tech
It mainly had missiles
No bells and no whistles
And a laser that often got wrecked

What mech is it?

Though my size is small in reality
As a mech I am quite large
While named for a bird of prey
I spot for a larger cousin
My configurations vary, and
Innovation abounds in my waste
yet is not advanced beyond optical display
although quite impressive at night

Here's another one:

This one's my favorite by far
A seventy-tonner at par
The lasers it mounts
In crazy amounts
Will make it explode like a star

Nope, but that's an interesting answer. It's technically true. Here's some more hints:

It stands about twelve meters tall
And cannot mount jump jets at all
Developed by clans
The place for its hands
Are gun barrels, five of them, all
