Mech still looks very cool mind you, not disappointed in the purchase, but mounting those 3B slots in a tight formation would have been a lot nicer, and looked far better.

Where did you get this information about the ballistic positions on the Marauder. I only found this picture https://pbs.twimg.co...AH8qa.jpg:large

I'll never understand how can anyone think that's a good idea.
Covered missile tube in MWO, bay door open/closed, provide armor protection vs an open missile bay.
Pilots with a Gunnery/Piloting skill above say a 2, know to fire on open bay doors.

That's not what i meant.
I meant that an SRM-2 shouldn't be an SRM-4 with 2 missile tubes blocked out or painted over.
And a LRM-5 shouldn't be a SRM-6 with one of the tubes blocked out, et cetera
(yes i DO realize that'd it require making a few extra models for the weapons, but for ***** sake, PGI is already skipping out on doing them by making all lasers identical!)

Hmm, thats a weird 3rd gun placement... Thanks for the image. Hopefully it will be different and abit more higher when released. Also really would like to have some screenshots about the missile tubes.

actually... most of them are decent mechs. it's just the fact you're comparing them with Clan ones. the Avatar, Rakshasa, Blackhawk-KU, Raptor, Owens, Sunder and Strider were all good mechs.
the thing to also realize is by the point most of them show up is again, we've evened the playing field weapon wise.

The Rakshasa is not a omni mech though it was inspired by the Timber Wolf.
I agree that many IS Omni's get a bad rep that the don't deserve (the Omni Firestater is great) but Mech Lab makes each standard mech so versatile, it's a toss up on how well they will be received by meta-only players.

heh, for some reason i always assume the Rak is one... it's a decent mech regardless. problem is it keeps getting judged by the Mad Cat's standard.
in all honesty, engine caps should be reduced on most mechs. speed shouldn't matter as much as it does.

It's the only thing keeping certain lights still in play. Imagine a slow Commando.
yeah, i meant for mediums, heavies and assaults. i mean, look at Clan Omni Assaults and Heavies. they can't swap engines and they do fine.

Also... notably.... both were actually referred to by their IS names, because they were their ONLY names, Kind of like how the Ebon Jaguar is only called that by the Smoke Jaguars. Everyone else including the other clans only ever called it the Cauldron Born.
Do a little research next time.
LOL a little research? I wasn't clear on the clan thing, it's true and it was my bad, but you should do research instead of lecturing me. You see, after you corrected me on the clan thing I went to Sarna to double check and indeed, everything I said is correct, barring my clan mistake (which is actually not a mistake, clan name at the time was different, in fact you were the one who used the wrong name not me). You do research and for example check the production year of the Mad dog mk. IV.
Oh and I don't mix IS nicknames with Clan mech designations.

The Rakshasa an Omni?. Yeah sure, and I'm the one who needs to do research...

What? I said something bad to you BFF? If someone tells me to research something he did not research I will respond. And if his b*itch comes looking for unnecessary fights, I will be happy to oblige.

As for the Marauder, checking back repeatedly. Last day countdown is quirk info, right?
Need to know if my planned builds are going to have any help Will probably run 2Uacs and 4 MPL on basic model either way.
Love the cockpit items, btw, happy about the new monitors, love the field of vision too!
Anybody notice the arm swing? Looks like it'll have plenty of aim agility with those pods. Lights beware
