So many really want the UrbanMech...Why??? Truly useful only in urban environs, too slow and vulnerable otherwise in my opinion.

Why do people climb Mount Everest? Why do people swim the English Channel? Why do people wrestle bears?

To defy all odds. To prove they are the best. To feel alive! That's what piloting an Urbanmech is all about.

It is a noble and majestic creature. Not known for speed or grace or dignity, but rather for its resilience, bravery, grit, and determination. It's the Rudy Ruettiger of the Battletech universe - the tiny mech that tries so big.

I don't necessarily want to drive an Urbie, but I definitely want one as a bobblehead in my cockpit.

In my mind I substitute UrbanMech for the most interesting man in the world in the Dos Equis commercials.

I know the tmeline and when MRMs show up, but I want the UM-68 - Eschewing the autocannon, this Draconis Combine variant carries an MRM-30. The added damage potential proved a nasty surprise to Clan Ghost Bear during the Combine-Ghost Bear War.

I would also take a UM-70 - The Federated Suns[6] -70 model is an upgrade that has greater potential than the -R63. The -70 uses Ferro-Fibrous armor and mounts a Rotary Autocannon/5, which can fire up to six times the normal rate of fire. For backup weapons, it carries an Extended Range Medium Laser and Extended Range Small Laser.
