I am going to have to go with the Warhammer.
I even picked up a Warhammer and Rifleman figure when I was a kid, then recognised them while watching Robotech several years later.
But of those two, I definitely like the Warhammer more.

Most of those unseen mechs are incredible. However, the UNSEEN battlemechs have always been a sore thumb in Battletech/Mechwarrior's side. I really wish we can have a complete reboot... maybe do a time travel and have a split time line... and get rid of those UNSEEN MECHS. I blame EVERY SINGLE UNSEEN MECH FOR MY LACK OF BATTLETECH!

I have become grumpy in my old age. I personally think they need to get rid of the UNSEEN MECHS and start from scratch. Who cares if a 55 ton medium Mech had a primary weapon on board is a GM Whirlwind Autocannon/5 This weapon allows the Wolverine to cause damage to the enemy at respectable ranges. This is backed up for short range work by a Harpoon-6 SRM-6 launcher and a single Magna Mk II Medium Laser that looks like a Wolverine or not look like the Wolverine.

We need to decide... do we want looks or do we want Battletech and Mechwarrior back? Those UNSEEN mechs will always be a thorn in our side. I SAY CAST THEM OFF... make a new mech with the exact same stats... but have it look different and be called different. If we keep these unseen mechs ... sooner or later something will happen and we will be forced to have it unseen... change our game... or even have more cancelled games because of those BLASTED UNSEEN MECHS.


I LOVE THE UNSEEN MECHS... BUT FOR THE LOVE OF Kerensky... GET RID OF THEM! They will only cause us not to have Battletech. The sooner we realize that... the sooner we can have more Battletech and more Mechwarrior. Imagine if the trailer to mechwarrior 5 did NOT have the warhammer. Imagine we could be playing Mechwarrior 5 today because of that one mech! I much rather play Mechwarrior 5 today than wait another decade for mechwarrior 5 AND a warhammer or any other unseen.

Sorry for the rant.

BUT BE GONE UNSEENS... I WANT MY BATTLETECH BACK!

My favorite UNSEEN would be the Rifleman, with the Warhammer as a close second.

Honestly, I don't like most of the UNSEEN, I loathe the way to human and soldierlike appearance that many of them have, and I absolutely hate mechs that carry weapons in form of a actual gun or even worse hatchet. (or similar melee weapon)

Warhammer, baby. Nothing will ever be the equal of that iconic image on the 1st Edition Battledroids/Battletech Box. The Battlemaster comes a close second. That thing just looks completely mean, man.

A lot of people love the Marauder, and the main body I love. Just very aggressive looking... but the legs... ugh. They look cool as hell from a certain angle (like a 3/4 side shot), but outside of that angle, they look dorky as all get-out and it just seems clownish all of a sudden to me.

1.)Marauder
2.)Warhammer
3.)Rifleman

All three have badass designs and are strong icons of classic Battletech.

"They" as in "I' honestly don't recall the Goliath. might research later. But perhaps with this massive Warhammer/Marauder/Rifleman stretch they will see fit to include said...

...ahh what'm I talking about. Everything we've seen so far has been 3025 TRO list.

Honestly I'm just paranoid about not having an incarnation of my 'Maud or RFL in the new game.
