And how are you enjoying them?

Personally I picked up a Huginn. Seems pretty cool, but I'm having tough luck getting decent results with it. It's fragile and it doesn't feel anywhere near as nimble as my glorious Anansi. I'm betting it's a playstyle issue given how well I regularly see other people do in the mech.

Bought the Pirate's Bane, was not disappointed.... I kind of want to figure out how to cram an AC 2 with some ammo into it for the LULz....

I bought Hellslinger, LaMalinche, Loup de Guerre, St Ives' Blues and Protector. Haven't touched them yet.

Bought Huginn for both a Light Hero (for the challenge) and to expand my Raven line for eliting.

Am worried about getting other heroes because several of them are 'made interesting' only by their quirks (as is the Raven). And we have already learned that quirks are open to abrupt and strange changes...

La Malinche is glorious. One of my favorite mechs in the game. Good decision!

Let me know how the Hellslinger is. There's a small part of me that wants to get one.


AC2 Pirate's Bane sounds hilarious by the way.

None.

Already own all the ones I wanted. Only one I was a little tempted on would have been the Gray Death, but I just don't much run Shads anymore.

So i skipped that.

I'm going to run the 4LPL build on the 1GHE that I ran on the 1S. Loses range, but heat the same.

Good to hear about the LM, how do you run it?

^This. And it's just not that different from the 2D(2). It's why it's one of the few I don't have and don't expect to get.

3 LPL+Gauss is how I run mine. With range modules for the LPL, it can easily reach out and compete with clan laser vomit and it runs ridiculously cool too.

I've got a build that's fun for that, but why stop at just one ac2?

To keep a little speed I guess? Freeing up 7 tons is easier than 13 on the Bane....
