It has a very slim front profile, but I'm gonna assume that the side profile is thicker than Gargles, Atlas, and Banshee, due to the huge JJ packs strapped to its back.

I assume (and hope, and pray) that the lasers will wrap around the fist nova style, so you can put a pair of ERSL in the first two underslung slots and the the lasers you actually want to fire in the remaining 5 to get them a little bit higher. Maybe, if i decide its worth using that ton like that. (RT Gauss + 5xERML+2xERSL spacers in RA, left side shields.. )

I'm pretty sure Alt. Config. D is described in one of the tech manuals as having the 9 lasers installed in a triangular shape. Hopefully they will go with that.

That sucker is going to tank for days with that skinny torso!

It is known as the tallest mech during the Clan invasion and PGI did not disappoint.


Vs. 100 tonner.




Vs. fellow 95 tonner.




Vs. 90 tonner.



Vs. 80 tonner. Executioner torso seems slimmer than Gargles from the front?




Vs. 70 tonner. #atlasheighthopper

Look at the bright side!
We are going to have only 6 vertical hardpoints.... it could be worse!

For instance 7, the last of which at the same height of the knee

Wow... wave 3 is shaping up to be a full compliment of new Meta overlords.

Also, since PGI will never fix the hopper's scale, can we just make it a 85-90 ton assault?

Grashopper is totally undersized. Right?

The Grasshopper is actually undersized by PGI's volume scale and is getting larger. Yay!!

Edit: Holy necro batman!

[LordKnightFandragon]

Gargles, Atlas and Executioner are all 15m tall mechs. Somehow I doubt the Grasshopper is 15m tall....
