Ivy Upsalom, phonetically sounds a lot like IV Upsilon, which is the cyrillic character for... "Y", which has a numeric value of...4(00). the remaining 00 looks a lot like OO, which is the phonetic pronunciation to Upsilon.

You've got it messed up there, pal.

Y in cyrillic is synonymous with "u" from latin. What you meant is Greek alphabet Y.

I'd also like to have a less generic title. And this thing should be PINNED BACK ASAP. Odanan, have you tried to reach any mod for this? Otherwise I'll start hammering some..

Needs more catchy name. Make happen.

"General Mech Discussion"?
"Past, Current and Future Mechs"?
"Ultimate Mech Discussion Thread"?
Please, give me some ideas.

And no, I didn't try to reach the mods and beg. Did it already some time ago (when of the first un-pin) and I don't know if I want to do it again.

Good guess.
Any clues about a notorious Quickdraw?

They will have to make a new one. I guess they will give him one or more ballistic hardpoints.

Bishop Steiner, on 24 November 2013 - 07:52 AM, said:

I am still betting on the Hunchy for December. It'll definitely outsell any Quickdraw, if $$$ is the concern. I think they learned from the Golden Boy SNAFU that just slapping "Hero" on something doesn't mean people want it. (Death Knell and Fang were both bad, but the GB redefined poor planning)

Probably a HBK-4N, not really that good because most hardpoints are in the right torso.

added this re-design of the classic Nova omnimech to the fanart section.

The Nova is tied with the summoner as my favorite Clan mechs, and part of i's iconic look is the odd hip/shoulder combo. Since all other such combos got a waist turret, it is safe to assume the Nova would too. I left the arms off for now to give a good view of the modified hip design.

Thoughts?

To tide you over for now.

Hmm isn't that too hyperbolic?

Ultimate current and rumored mech discussion thread.

You can take away the uberly "ultimate" and get a more serious rendition, although it must suit you, Odanan !

May I ask for a link to this discussion? Anyways I hear people want Urban Mech regardless how slow and under powered it is in the battle tech universe it would be possibly be worse then the locust we have now.

I miss the MW3's brutal action...

[ReguIus]

That video should be some kind of educational material for PGI. For example, they could animate some of their Mechs better, like Stalker. Oh, by the way, that Warhammer pic you showed... It actually helped.

Indeed, Stalkers move like they have a dung inside the brief.

The Clans are the Emos. They think they're cool, but nobody really likes them cause they're so filled with their stupid customs.
