Better put those back in the jar on the mantel before your significant other finds out DaZur!

Bah... She keeps threatening to feed them to the dog so in hindsight they probably would be in a far safer place at the PGI office.

That said... Not sure what PGI would do with them even if they are gold plated. Pfft... If I get my Hammerhands, I don't rightly care!

What if... The Hammerhand's Warhammer variant would be ECM capable.

I can't find any ecm capable Warhammers. However, the HH is 5 tons heavier...

[ThermidorFallen]

Just give us the Hammerhands and you can have my wallet PGI! Sounds like a fair deal?

Warhammer style HH with giant PPC arms? I think I can make use of that!

The Hammerhands HMH-6E is TRO 3085, so about 30-ish years out....

Production Year 2475.

BattleTech TRO3075 says it went BACK into production in the 3070s. Then again there is only one Yen Lo Wang in CBT and hundreds here...

Two versions... Len Yo Wang with the AC-20 and Len Yo Wang with the Gauss Rifle... I think there is even a third version done closer to Dark Ages too...

And only 3. Not 3 with AC20 on one team.

You know... It's been a while since I dusted off my 3DStudio MAX... Maybe I'll boot it up tonight and throw together a nice 3D model to whet PGI's whistle...

Hell, maybe I'll throw together a nice render composition for my personal Windows background edification!

The funny thing about the HMH... It's not particularly a top-tier design, but like the Zeus it really pulls at my "looks particularly awesome" heart string.

True, but it's rare I see more than just mine on any given PUG team.... Or CW match for that matter...

Yeah, the Hammerhands would be pretty bad ass looking in mwo. PGI increases engine cap, so at least the HH's biggest weakness (from what I can tell) would be easy to overcome.

Taking the point further about how PGI amps up engine size, the Warhammer variants come with a 280, versus the HH's 225.

Considering how many ppl are displeased with the implementation of the BK (From what we can tell from the artwork, lol) Hopefully, we can draw pgi's attention to this mech, or another quality design.

I know the Warhammer is off the table but why not the Hammerhands? It even has an ECM variant and is well within the timeline.

It's actually out of timeline. Hammerhands is an extinct design, and has been out of production since shortly after the Warhammer was adopted by House Davion. (The Warhammer entered production in the early 2500s, about 40 years after the Hammerhands. There was a single custom Hammerhands in the early 2700s, but I cannot find an exact "out of production" date.)

As has been pointed out, we're probably never going to get the the Warhammer, we can just headcannon they're the same or some such reason to justify the Hammerhands.
