Been gone for a while so just getting back online.. Been catching up on everything. Was interested when I heard we could get the 'Kind Crab' mech!

Imagine my surprise when it was not what I thought it was..

Am I wrong and thinking of a different mech because I thought the King Crab was four legged!?

I have been involved in Battletech in one form or another from the beginning.. And for the life of me, I could have sworn the King Crab was one of the very few 4 legged Mechs... Just as there are also mechs known as Aeromechs that can fly and limited distance then go back to land mode. (and no I am not talking about Transformers - those are something completely different)

My hope is that someday, Mechwarrior universe here will expand into a full on universe incorporating the entirety of Battletech in a playable fashion... From FTL ships, dropships, Mechfighters, Aerotech, and even Infantry... Someday maybe a persistent universe like EVE Online, Mechwarrior, Universal Combat, and a few other titles all rolled into one that we can play in..

Anyhow, getting off target here... Back to the question... King Crab... 4 legged?

Nope - always been bi-pedal

I went back into my old archives and such and I think you are right... I found my stuff for the Solaris and the Goliath which ARE actual 4 leg mechs.. For some reason I kept thinking the King Crab was as well..

Oh well.. getting old I guess...

Makes me not look forward to when I do, with the rate that I forget stuff now.

Sadly I am only 50! That is NOT old... Now... where'd I put my meds?
