They seem to share left arm and the legs.

Anyway this is looking to be a tall mech. Maybe taller than the Atlas

Could be but it might work for it as it will have nipple mounted weapons and JJ so it's a small hopp to fire,

[MauttyKoray]

Clan mechs use a waste-not policy, many arms/legs/other stuff are reused for other mechs, so yes they probably share arm components, and even legs.

height really doesn't make a difference in a mech's ability to peak. youcan b anywhere on a slope and show as much as you want to depending on how far you stand regrdlss of height

I'm curious to see how those back panels, behind the head, are handled for hitboxes.

Probably just like the fin on the Jagermech, part of the torso.

This mech will probably have similar hitbox issues the Hellbringer did upon arrival.

Somewhat true, but it matters when near building or ramps that do not have a slope to them but are vertical, think HPG and Frozen city.

[Corbon Zackery]

Its not the Executioner is a short stubbier wide mech. This is a size comparison shot of a tank and a infantry man.



Short wide Budda shot.



Once again we see the scale between mech and man.



We can see here how short and wide Buda is.

Mmmm right torso GAUSS + 7E RA = Profit... and the entire left side as a shield.

Indeed, but will they be CT, or count as Side Torsos though?

And where would Front and rear divide those panels?

I have some ideas, but I'm still curious to see what is given initially.

[Brody319]

I think those pictures are from too different angles so we can't really judge them just based on the pictures.

I think it will probably be the size of the banshee.

thats completely dependent on how big the structure is. If a mech is larger, it can shoot over it, but will also expose itself. if a mech is smaller it is under cover but cannot shoot. So in the end there is no difference in an urban/nonverticle area. It might even be better to be small and hidden by the buildings

Im gonna go with all of the above, front and rear torsos.

True , but on the other hand the fact that the Shadowhawk is tall helps it carry only one JJ and still shoot over most buildings and ramps for the high mounted hardpoint , being short is always an advantage but this is one of those silverlinings if you are already tall...

[Brody319]

Look at the feet placement, its two different angles. we can't judge how tall it is yet. I mean if you look at the silhouettes of the other mechs for judgement then the Jaguar is just as tall.

We gotta wait till we get in game pics.

Fat Gargles looks like he can boat some massive vomits, he eat too much.
