I think he meant how being in an assault isn't a guaranteed roflstomp over a light mech.

Ok, so if you were able to get ONE mech in the universe that will be your main mech trought the whole game, with others players who got there own mechs.


What mech would it be, and most of all, what would you choose for his name?

.....................................

And I chose the Uziel, sure its not in game, but that was not the question you asked us, you said UNIVERSE. So I picked the Uziel.

Its name will be Wrath.

But if you are referring to our current line up of mechs and possibly those about to be introduced, I'd go with my good old HBK 4G, Niri.

EDIT: After going through the thread again I seem to appear to get what you are saying that I am missing, which is why I would chose that mech and name, which you neglected to state at the start of the thread. Error on your part not mine or others.

So why would I chose the Uziel, well, ever sense MW4 the Uziel was my go to ride, I always thought it looked sexy, also it was fun killing the Heavies and Assaults that were rampant in that game with their PPC Gauss meta builds, and was glorious to beat them at their own game with 2x PPCs and a Light Gauss in a 50 ton mech.

I still remember when I ran a team with nothing but Uziels with this config against an enemy team that easily out weighted us 2:1, and we still beat them.

As for the meaning behind the name, Wrath, it was in part of that whole Heavy Assault spam that I mentioned, as in they will feel the wrath of a 50 ton mech that has been laughed at and mocked because it wasn't the Heavy, Assault meta.

This is my Sunder as painted by Franz Vohwinkle. There's a whole story behind its name, which is the Wall of Death.

Franz did numerous cards for the BattleTech TCG including my favorite piece of BattleTech art ever, Brutal Punch. He also did the Turkina C and King Crab 000 for the TCG, among other cards.

Timberwolf, named The Banewolf of course.

I remember hearing in the last Dev Blog that Alex's favorite mech is the Bushwacker. Could it be a possible foreshadowing? I hope so.

Sarna says 3053 for its production date...one can only hope.

One Mech, hmm? That's actually how I prefer to play BattleTech... in Old Style, where Mechs are precious to the point of being heirlooms, and even owning a Mech brevets one to a position of respect (and responsibility) equivalent to minor nobility. Variety is the spice of life, but there's also something to be said for taking care of what you've got.

As such, if I were to have some choice in the matter, I think I would choose a salvaged Mad Cat, which I would name "Magic II" in tribute to what I have to assume to be my recently departed Catapult, "Magic".

Wouldn't know what variant it was because battlefield salvage doesn't exactly come with a manual, but I'd probably end up rebuilding it anyways. For one thing, I would have to install jumpjets if it didn't already come with them, because jumpjets are life and no Catapult replacement would be acceptable without 'em. Apart from that, I can't see a Mad Cat as anything but a straight upgrade across the board even if I had to use Inner Sphere weapons to kit it out.

I did not made any error, I said it multiple times in that thread, including the first one.
Don't blame the others if you can't read dude.

The others seems to have no trouble understanding right at there first try.
