A magical fairy lands near you, giving you an machine capable of traveling towards the battletech universe. And she grants you one battlemech for your heart desire..

What would be that battlemech be


AND

What would be your personal TOUCH on it?

yes yes personal touch...Allow me to explain

For example, for me it will be the Battlemaster mech...Inside my little cockpit will be a nice boiling keg for boiling water for my delicious warm coffee. Sitting in the cockpit for hours means you need some stuff to keep you going! Aswel as a toilet conviniently hidden and super-clean

Outside of my little battlemaster would be speakers

Big speakers

Blasting Iron maiden-the trooper as i charge down the enemy ranks.

Haven't played any Project Phoenix mechs yet so I can't say if the following will change.

After playing this game for over a year now, my favoritve mech is still one of the first mechs I played. The Jenner. Even on the days when pug-life becomes tough, I can still jump back into my Jenner and kick some butt.

My own touch would be a bumper sticker stating "I'm not dead yet!" and a head-banger bobblehead on my dashboard. Music being played would be Megadeth Symphony of Destruction, Megadeth Angry Again, Metallica Seek and Destroy, Ministry Jesus Built My Hot Rod....I could go on.

Not sure this is as cool as a chainsaw that comes out of my crotch tho

A bong holder inside the cockpit,a backpack for the stashing wrapped around my seat (non-interfering system with the ejection seat ofc, safety and such) and some vents to obscure my Mech in the self-produced haze.

I wouldn't mind having a jenner with arms. With a hotkey so I can backhand other mechs. Fingers optional.

You are funny....try not to think about what you do? You are driving a engine of war.... in this fairy tail we are all mass murders - no shining knights....that my Thunderbolt will have parade color - is just the cry of the last sanity of my mind - kill me make it stop -
so maybe there will nothing fancy in my Thunderbolts cockpit - a picture of my family ins transplex (so that it will survive a cockpit hit) It should keep me sane - reminde me that - i do this for a better world, for peace and freedom - or maybe just for the dreams of few rich....

Sacrifice of innocents...the hailing of the gun - this work has to be done - or at least i will believe that it has to be done

The dozen and dozens of killed mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters, sons and daughters - this knowlege make me a monster and I know that I'm a monster - I must be a monster.

So i press the Sunglow Typ 2 at another cockpit window and hit the trigger.

See a running Mechwarrior escaping from his fallen Marauder - i flip the crosshair of my Voelkers over his back - and armor piercing bulltes saw him in two.

Enemy is using a what looks like a hospital as cover - they hope i will not charge... they are mistaken... a volley of LRMs rip the facade - then i drove 65tons of steel into the building.

No need for killing him - you could have taken him as prisoner.. Or Bondsman? :)

So.. My 'Mech would definitely be a Timberwolf. MW2 green paint
Spoiler


My battle nick painted just below the Clan Wolf emblem & my favourite quotes from the Remembrance close to the cockpit.

Tough one, for my mech I would either take a Thunderbolt or a Hellbringer...probably...maybe a Shadowhawk...or a Cougar.

My personal touch would be a litle troll painted onto the left chest in some colour contrasting with the basic paint.

A Dire Wolf is my pick.

My personal touch is a Star of Elementals riding me into battle.

For me is a Mad Cat, painted jet black, with the left most toe painted white. Primary configuration, with the name "Sam" written in silver coloured cursive writing on the right side of the hull.

TDR-5S Thunderbolt. Personal touch? Sanitary towels. Lots of 'em because mechwarriors get sweaty in that cockpit, and considering how many people were probably sitting in their short-shorts in that seat before me... Eeew!
