Voted all three because I could! :)

I wanted to pilot that mech since it has been announced months ago. So I will get me one (or three) for sure.

Haha me too, I saved up CB's and actual money for MC so I'm looking at buying all of them. And when something better comes along that's a ton of CB's to sell them for, I'l just keep my favorite.

Its popularity and effectiveness as a brawler will depend hugely on whether head hitbox covers the entire canopy or not.

I'm hoping for a mech with three ballistic hardpoints for my Ultra AC/5 shredathon.

Either way i'll be trying one out.

I'm betting that it will get delayed.

Also I like fast mediums and lights more.

How much will the thing cost?

Just make it possible to mount 3xGauss and I don't care about the head hitbox :)


And yes I'm getting one as soon as it goes live, then another, and another till we get a 75t heavy.

I am interesteed in how much it will cost

I mean, PGI sort of set standard by listing the Atlas in the 11 to 12mil range.
Most Awesomes are fairly cheap except for the 9M model, somewhere around 11.5mil

The Cataphract is a heavy so i would expect the price margin to be on scale with the Awesome if int a shade less.

It will be nice to get a 70 tonner in the game.

looking forward to it

It comes with a XL 280 engine which alone costs 4.5 million, the chassis should be slightly more than a Catapult so that's another 6 million or so.

Grand total 10+ million C-Bills depending on the weapon configuration.

Pointless poll is pointless. Most of the people who visited this thread... are Cataphract pilots.

Why bother? It's guasses will just get shot off way faster than the k2's gausses.
