Yup.

I'm yet to take it out with a TAG, as it goes against everything I believe in when it comes to Locusts, in that you have to slow down or stop to hold a lock.

But from over 1KM away, it might be OK.

Pretty cool that you guys are doing this. I pilot lights and mediums exclusively and do pretty good in them. I'd love to try the Raven set. Thanks for doing this. Fingers crossed.

No Locust should ever have more than 1-5pts of armour on the head.
The hitbox is just too small, and the weight too precious.

Note the armour distribution on all of them.
Xl190, max armour (rear armour = 2/3/2) then arms/head = 5/1/5, Endo, Ferro gives you 7T of free space, with heavy front armour (which can be used as rear because of the extreme torso twist) and more than enough armour for your tiny arms and tiny, tiny head.

So yes, people that have entered before the contest began are considered entered into the contest, just to let some people know.


A toast to the magnanimous Scout Derek, and a bump to this thread for all the come to realization they need a Locust!

And I'm still posting to be "officially" after the start time of the OP. ;)

Yes please... I want another Lolcust to add to my collection. Locust was the first mech I got 8 kills in and I even own the Pirate's Bane, which at one point I converted into an ECM/AC2 configuration to troll the crap out of enemy pilots as the AC2 is top mounted and allowed you to ridge hump. The AC2 rounds are so small and fast that the enemy almost never sees you. Got nearly 500k CBills the first time I took it for a spin simply because of all the hit n run, flanking, and unseen bonuses.

The dates the 9th and 26th are the time to enter into the giveaway. Winners are to be announced after those set dates.

Though what's been asked may be a good idea.

I have always been a big fan of the little bugs, even before the quirks.
Just throwing my hat into the ring.


Did the start date change? I could've sworn... oh never mind.
I am most interested to see what crazy things people can build on this one. Most important, I want it.
