trying to come up with a build for HBK-IIC (O).
no success.

XL means no zombie mode, and no arm weapons means no brawls (specially on slopes)
with only 2 E mounts, the largest usable ballistic weapon is UAC10.
Gauss is out of the window

Should i leave it to gather dust and use HBK-IIC-C instead?

ClanXL. So not so bad. Why is Gauss out the window? I don't understand?

[Sparks Murphey]

So... how is quad UAC/5s poor on the HBK-IIC?

I also wonder why; the HBK-IIC is probably an excellent sniper and will not use the Gauss for laser vomit brawling...

Failing that, quad UAC/2. All the way up there next to your head so you can deafen yourself while you spam potatoes over a hill

So... anyone else gonna run their Jenner IIC with 6 CSRM6 so they can do 72 damage in alpha and alpha twice without overheating for a grand total of 144 damage in less than 5 seconds on mech that's fast enough to boom and zoom effectively.

Too slow or not so much ammo, Better something like XL295, 2xJJ, 6xSRM4, 5 tons ammo, 10xDHS.

I run my oxide with an xl280, 5 tons of ammo and 4SRM4.

Now with clan half weight SRMs I can either add more speed, more ammo, or more firepower.

I don't run out of ammo all that frequently to be honest. SRM boat lights aren't meant for turn and burn fighting like the firestarter or cheeto. Instead they play boom and zoom assassin style, finding a target, dumping their load into it and scampering off to attack the next target of opportunity. So more speed isn't that important. I don't really miss the JJ except on a couple maps and there are ways to work around that.

So that means I'm choosing to hit harder. Hard enough to assassinate most heavies and assaults in less than 10 seconds.

TITLES AND BADGES.

The Messenger

The Boombox

The Hunter

The Undertaker

I usually don't like the flat badges, but the Hunchie's and Lander's are nice.
And the titles: liked them a lot.

The Boombox? Do I smell another buildt in warhorn? Like the HGN-HM has one?

[Sigmar Sich]

I think i will play my HGN-732 on the IIC release day.
"There can be only one!"
Damn, it will hurt..

U can throw in dual gauss+2 ersl with 200 xl engine and 6t of gauss ammo.

On a 50t mech.

Hahaha, I love all the titles and badges, well done!

[juxstapo]

unhkay I want the HGN screen shot from the homepage on here too, if you please.

...I've got Jenners coming, but the Highlander actually looks temptingish. Model seems slender.

[Ace Selin]

Looking forward to my Jenner IIC and Hunchies .....

[Dakkss]

Gonna deviate from everyone else here and say that I'm excited for my Orion IIC. The Orion is my best-performing mech and an absolute beauty - I look forward to piloting an upgraded one.

[Hit the Deck]

What do the titles mean? I get the "boombox" one but not the other three.

Why is the HGN's crest depicted with a cross with two roses?

[shopsmart]

7 days to I have the suicide sled. And I will play it that way. Poke alittle or wait for the team to soften some targets. Then charge in and kill the largest target all the while heat killing me and the enemy lasers. My tier score is going to suffer. Mu ha ha. THIS IS how you have fun people. The3eef inspired...
