Those models look great from this angle! Wish we got a front view

The titles for these series of packs always started with "the" how come the ebony jaguar one doesnt?

[Sigilum Sanctum]

Gladbag appears like it might have some legit hit boxes.

[SgtMagor]

kewl

[Impyrium]

This confirms my greatest fear.

The Clans may soon own the sexiest chicken walker.

Goddammit.

[1453 R]

Looks like nipple guns on the Executioner after all.

Good, good...now to see if the hitboxes pan out as well...

[Pariah Devalis]

Yes.... My primary heavy omnimech is here. Or, at least, until 3059.

Caladbolg is a sword from Celtic mythology. (Also may be the original source of Excalibur) The more common name for the Eb Jag, is the Cauldron Born, which is a being from Celtic mythology.

I.... MIGHT actually change my title to that one XD Never thought they'd throw a title in that I'd take over my Legendary Founder... but damnit... Kind of want it Kudos, guy/gal at MWO who gets to decide such things!

Nothing special about the Koala's name, though... so, I continue to be uninspired to upgrade my pack, but we'll see... I still really kind of want it, even though I'm sure I'll hate it XD

If my rough mock-ups on the TBR are any proper indication, you should be able to knock the LRM-15s on the CBN-C down to another pair of cSRM-6, so four total for Awesome Splat Action, and then upgrade the cannons to cUAC/5s. Ammo will be tight but still somewhat doable, and you can sacrifice a ton of reloads for something to shoehorn a cERML on there with the Prime LT.

That could be fun. Among the half-dozen other Fun Ideas I've got for making people hate Cauldron-Borns.

[lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol]

Is there a list of the nerfs quirks up for the mechs yet? I'd like to see those before I make the decision to buy.

[Thell]

That Caladbolg title. I know what I am using.

[Kodiak Jorgensson]

tomorrows reveal... probably quirks

[Sereglach]

I might actually get Cauldron-Borns for c-bills, but I had no desire to get the Shadow Cats and didn't want to/couldn't afford to (mostly couldn't afford to) get a package Hankyu and then a-la-carte Cauldron Born.

Funny, though, that the Cauldron-Born is getting an Irish/Welsh Gaelic title but we will forever see the nearly unused Ebon Jaguar name in game.

I really wish I could toggle the nomenclatures in game to match the IS versions.

If it's like the Urbie countdown, we'll get it as one of the days reveals...

In whatever order they feel like... (probably this order, though)

Titles/badges (x) (Glad they combined these two for this one :3)
in game screenshots
(I) geometry screenshots
In game video
Quirks List
and ?????? (Possibly some faction camo screenshots?)

[mekabuser]

if only they were counting down some sort of gameplay improvement.. A new.. something..

the utter lack of any kind of improvement, let alone implementation of basic crap like collision is lame at best.


u know its true.. If someones pullin in more than 200k a year US, they should be ashamed of themselves for being SO cheap as to not hire SOMEONE to actually make.. a game. .. Not pokeman.

cant even figure out a flamer.. hilarious.

[OznerpaG]

i can't imagine there'l be quirks or nerfs for either.....yet.....
