I vote on the King Crabs winning pretty much everytime.....mostly because you cant aim at a Direwolf and NOT hit the CT...same almost goes for an Atlas.....The KIng Crab looks like its really short and narrow.....so actually landing everything on it's CT wont be as easy.

As slow as this mech will move, there will be no problems hitting the CT no matter its size.

You say that, but if all goes well, trying to attack a KGC will be like shooting at an edge-on razor blade. Basically, hit the legs or nuke it from orbit, those're your choices.

Here's a thought as it has a long(ish) body with a small frontal profile that will mean it has a big 'roof' ideal for DFA's and Lurms.

Crab riding!!!! Oh hang on.

Not quite so impenetrable now is it..........Bring back the Pop Tart!

You might want to check out the VLOG #8. It wont be as thin as you want to believe.

Oh fantastic. The one advantage of the KGC's design is nullified entirely. Now it's just a big f**king rectangle with legs from the front.

I'll reserve my final judgement of the KGC for when it comes out, but I'll love it either way. Even if it is a 100 ton Awesome.

Yeah, its still a 100t assault mech, it cant be that thin, unless your engine is 2 gerbils on a hamster wheel and your ammo is a rack of hamster pellets fired out of a .22 air pistol....
