It looks good, at least:

Artists have a thing for that "hooded cobra" cockpit and exaggerated Michael Jackson epaulet nacelle look don't they?

Some of you will know what this is especially given the previous page. The resemblance is uncanny.

IDK, I'm kinda partial to the stance. At least it looks sorta like its namesake.

To me, it looks like a mech the Inner Sphere made in an attempt to copy a Nova :/

But it's a clan mech that was supposed to replace the Mad Cat (if i recall correctly)

Possibly, but I was just commenting purely on visuals. It just visually looks like a Nova knockoff to me. I don't really care for it's appearance (although I don't mind the Nova).

To me, it looks more like the Puma/Adder.

Just sayin', you might wanna look up "LT5."

And that's sea-horses to you, buddeh!

Yes it is, and it is awesome! Of the 3055 TRO mechs the Komodo is my second "want now, please!" after the Daikyu.

My first car was a 1970 Dodge Challenger 440 6pack/4spd. Made 490 up at the dyno. *shrug*

375hp at the flywheel generally means watching em disappear in my rearview.

The new sourcebook on the First Succession War has arrived. Lots of naval action, but also new artwork of classic Mechs, including some very cool stuff on the Valkyrie and the Wasp. Really makes me want these Mechs in MWO, even though I know they would not be the best choices at all.
(The book is brandnew so I won't post the images here. I recommend to get it anyway).

Oh, Waiting for some mechporn given to us by the all mighty saviour and creator of all that is glorious- Alex?
That will happen when and if the Linebacker is the next heavy.

It's just a shame the Night Gyr is so critical space starved that it could never effectively run a Nova Cat Prime's configuration.



Maybe 9 extra DHS with 2x ERPPC and 3x ERLLas, putting it to 21 DHS.

Edit: Image from MegaMekLab.

Thanks for the headsup.
21 DHS huh?... so it actually will get 4 Less DHS then nova cat... sigh.

At least I can make psuedo Nova cats or based on it...

ie instead of a trio of large lasers it'll be a trio of UAC 2's. (yes, like the mech assault windigo. No I didn't play MA... just watched some videos and browsed it's wikia. I love all things battletech and I look at all "stock" mechs for inspiration- including apocryphal ones from MW games, MW: LL, or MA/ MC.)
