SICK! Like it more than the Marauder even

[Deathlike]

It looks too much like a Hellbringer.

[Kira Onime]

That looks sexy but those hardpoints ........

[Alwrathandabout42ninjas]

Wow nice. My kind of robot!

[Otto Cannon]

They got the cockpit right, which is the main thing for me.

At first I was like "oh neat, russ changed from hunchie to hellbringer. Wait WTF?!?!"

The Warhammer never looked better.

I can already imagine the Clanners filling their diapers when that comes around the corner.

Personally, I love it.

[Yellonet]

Super low arms...

I'm... honestly not a big fan.
They're making the Macross Unseens, Marauder and now the Warhammer, too clan-like. Too sleek and modernized.

I want rugged, chunky, battered industrial-looking mechs, not sleek sport-cars we seem to be getting

Those things were made 500-1500 years in the future. I don't think engineers from the future will rely on 1980s style.

No one of them is like "yeah I think - even though we are in the year 2876 - the Hasselhoff Era really stuck with me, I'm gonna design that thing like a Lada Sedan".

These are the most valuable items on the field. They wont look like that post battle thats for sure.

Yeaaaaaah, but they're sort of going against the already established aesthetic of previous IS mechs.

That's a problem with the crappy damage-decals PGI uses.

Well, on the plus side, the hard points are closer to the cockpit when compared to the Black Knight. Not nice and high, but more favorable than the BK.

Oh and yes, it looks awesome!

[0bsidion]

Well, I can't say much for the low slung arms, but those nipple ballistics might just redeem it. God knows they work just fine on my Maulers. And I wish the Marauder was as close to the original art as this one, because I care far more about the Marauder. Oh well.

[Mechteric]

It looks really great.

FFS just enjoy it for what it is, not every mech needs to be every hardpoint at the shoulder/head level. If every mech did, it would probably be boring.

[BigBenn]

I really hope PGI shortens up the PPC arms a wee bit. There is no need to have such loooong barreled PPC barrels UNLESS the PPC's are massively quirked.

Otherwise.... that think is SCHWEET!!! BRING IT ON!!!!

Im glad to see PGI kept the missile launcher external from the right shoulder and that they omitted (for the mos part) the left should search light.
