If they can get a 100 page Urbanmech thread going by simply teasing us with the production mechs, just image the chaos when the discussion about the Hero Urbie gains some steam...

But the Urbanmech is THE Hero! Every Urbanmech to ever step upon the field of battle has proven itself to be leagues beyond all those around it. Just look at what is wrought by the Spider-Urbies via the devastation they bring to the battlefield; and those are mere shadows . . . attempting to ascend into the glory that is the Urbanmech.

. . .

Although, seriously, I'd love to see what Hero variant they have in store for the Urbanmech. I'd buy one ASAP once it is released.

Yes, an Urbanmech deficiency is quite serious.

I think we should all fly to their BC office and have a Demostration outside to free the Urban Mech!

They are holding it captive! Trapped in just code! It needs to be set Free!

Yes, as representatives of the Urbanmech Society.

I hope it's Deputy Dawg. That one is glorious.

If not, these are the hardpoint suggestions I recommend for it:

6-8ballistics

4xAMS

6xEnergy

ECM

6xJJs

4xMissile


They need to pick any 3 of these and throw them into the mix for the hero Urbanmech.

I love this idea.

I would just make it a machine gun AMS boat.

They should just get the rights to the Marauder, same as they did with a few unseens already.

If it's Harmony Gold (as the Marauder is), the company is openly hostile towards Battletech in general.

You would literally have to buy Harmony Gold itself to allow use of the old Macross-model artwork and designs safely.

Meanwhile, the Urbanmech would be more popular and require no legal loop-de-looping whatsoever.

...And, since there are multiple variants of the Urbie available, it would be the first Light Mech Chassis to get proper AC/10 and AC/20/quirks. Also, there's a PPC-toating variant, too. That would make it the lightest Assault Mech in the game with heavy-weapons quirks.

This looks amazing haha I cant wait.

[Tarogato]

I have decided: making a pixelmech Deputy Dawg is now top priority. Stay tuned.

Arrow IV is cool.

They could add it as fixed equipment (or a special 'artillery hardpoint') <- that way it couldn't appear on other mechs.

Same goes for the Blazer/Binary-Laser <- just make it a fixed weapon that can't be used elsewhere.



90 - Emperor - 90t with JJ, and ballistic arms!

It is like a shiny stone penguin of doom. All elegance and fury.

we have that its called a highlander

This thread can't die until we get the Urbie! Only 81 days until the one year anniversary!

Hero Urbie needs UAC5 jam negating/cool down quirk, dual AMS, and ECM - or ECM Deputy Dawg!


Wow, 2000th post and not an urbanmech in sight!

Actually, it is in sight, now. Russ admitted that work was done on it and we've seen concept art via the Christmas Card email. Right now it's just a matter of when, NOT if.

[MechPorn]

It would be cool to a 25% boost to jump jets also.

You know what I was thinking this game needed?
