Okay other than me giggling like an ***** at the name (okay seriously it makes me laugh some, DON'T JUDGE ME > : O ) does anyone else want to see this guy in the game later? I was just surfing around the heavies on the wiki site and found this dude. Has allot of variants, isn't unseen (so yay no seen or unseen debate from it) And by the looks, has a nice range of weapons and variant loadouts?




(heh hey butthead...******..hehehe. Sorry couldn't resist ) okay got censored, crap XD

hmm Edit: a link for the ones who haven't seen it http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Bandersnatch

i always loved the BS, and i would love to see him ingame, but i doubt he will ' as it is a custom handmade mech. so if he gets implemented he will be some kind of exclusive reward or something like that.

It;s custom? o.o' I didn't see that on the wiki thing xD But it looks pretty awesome, a nice heavy, not as much armor as normal but makes up with powa!

well i believe, it is made by a group of ex-merc techs who founded their own company, which produces between 12-25 mechs a year ( if i recall correctly)

As far as I see it, it's something that was designed for mass production. It didn't exist prior to 3052 though, so we may have to wait until 2015 before we'll see it introduced to the game...

Ah, I thought custom as in fanmade or something lol, but yeah it ranks up there with my love for Bushwacker (seriously I would have both if I could >.> ) and it seems as a really good heavy/direct fire support role kinda mech

it is closely related to the marauder ( uses the same parts) so rolewise it would be in the same field imho

What is this, I don't even... Why am I even awake, and why are you making threads...


I stripped an awesome and put 3 heavy large lasers and a plasma cannon on him and that's it. I shot all 4 at a light mech and utterly destroyed it, but it also made me overheat with one burst. It was fun... we're talking about Awesomes right?

ok just looked it up in the TRO: "...each Bandersnatch is built by hand and takes approximately ten months to complete..."

so that would make it 13 mechs/year.

Maybe they would just cost ALLOT in game to get then? D; I don't want such a awesome mech unavailable even when the timeline comes

I wonder if there's a whole set. Bandersnatch, Borogrove, Jubjub, Mome Rath, Tove, and (of course) Jabberwock.

yes probably albeit he was built to be a relatively cheap mech for merc coompanies, so iif they want to keep in line with canon he would be most likely be a special reward for mercs. or a time limited recurring buy-able mech

but i go for the first option
