On the other hand, eventually the Wolves come up with the Hellstar. So it's not like they're in a perpetual losing spiral here.

Yeah, it's pure vanilla kill-everymech-dead thanks to basically being the Warhawk, uptonnaged and with the heat sinks to be a Clan Awesome on crack. (although it trades for that by actually being only so-so vs. vehicles and actually in trouble vs. infantry)

While I doubt I will use the stock camo pattern, it makes me relieved to know at least the Pahket at least got a respectable camo. Not some clown show camo spec that belongs in a circus.

Also, given these camo specs, why don't we have bright neon pink as a color again?

Now the last predictable mech was announced, we can get back to topic; meaning: "What do you want to do today?" - same thing we do every day: try to guess the next mech!





Wasp?!

Pillager
Marauder II (for HBS Battle Tech)
