Greetings MechWarriors,

This post details the Loadout information for all variants of the Warhammer, releasing for eligible pilots with the January 19th patch.

Pictured variant: WHM-BM

Warhammer

Release date for MC: April 5th 2016

Release Date for C-Bills: May 3rd 2016

A procurement officer requested a "...mobile ’Mech with enough firepower to destroy or severely damage any ’Mech of the same class or lower.” When the final BattleMech rolled off the StarCorps Industries assembly line, the Warhammer fit the bill well, quickly becoming a mainstay in the Star League Defense Force. Its superb balance of armor, weapons, and speed made it extremely popular with Star League Gunslingers as well. Ultimately the Warhammer clinched its place as one of the most successful heavy BattleMechs ever produced.

The WHM-6R [S] is a Special version of the WHM-6R, and features a custom Classic IS Collection Pattern and a 30% C-Bill Boost to C-Bill earnings. It is only available through the Warhammer Collector Pack.

Finally! it is HERE just a few more hours. I don't think i can take anymore anticipation.

[mikerso]

Ha second person to comment. However, I feel oddly alone.

[Manei Domini Krigg]

When i see WH-BW i ask: PGI why Cataphact-4x is so bad? You just add new CTF-4X (WH-BW) with NO engine nerf and perfect hight ballistic slots.

Bw is basically built like a really big ember, but with a missile slot as a bonus.

[K19]

+50% PPC Velocity ???? AWS need ER PPC use not Quirks???? need fix.

[Mechteric]

Typo Spotted!!!

The caption under the picture says the variant is BM, should be BW (for Black Widow)

Pictured variant: WHM-BM

Warhammer WHM-7S has quirks for ppcs, but carries er-ppcs. Does the ppc-quirk affect er-ppcs too?

It should. On the Marauder 3R I use quad ER-PPCs and the speed at which you can chain fire it is the same as the PPC. A few of us dropped in a private watch and fired short, medium and long range using both and the shots where impacting the far wall at the same as far as we could tell.

[Desintegrator]

Hey, thats only "110 additonal structure points" for the 6R variant.

I think, that's not enough. I would be happy to see +150 structure by the Cbill release.

i don't know about that. If it says "Energy" than that quirk will work on all energy based weapons. But I still have mechs that have quirks for PPCs and others for ERPPCs. So if it's just a PPC quirk, than I don't think it applies to ERPPCs. Unless they changed it and PPC quirks now work for bothe PPC and ERPPC. But if that's the case, there are still mechs like the Awesome that show only ERPPC quirks and that needs to be fixed.

This would change my play style a bit too. Because I have just been going my PPC quirk mean only the standard PPC.

I'm used to checking the quirks by hovering the pointer on the weapon system that's loaded in the slot on the mech in the mechbay and an info tab apears. And if it shows the quirks then the quirks apply to that weapon system. And I just checked with every mech I own that has a PPC quirk and it also applies to ER PPC

[Christopher Hamilton]

finally it is there - the love of my table top days. the reason for naming "Hamiltons `Hammers" the way they have been named.

Only thing i am missing is the WHM-6L "Hot `Hammer" variant with the flamers.

Good Hunting everyone !


An i sincerely hope for a HATCHETMAN, P-HAWK or STINGER soon

[Fat Jack Murphy]

... he said HATCHETMAN.

I was missing a comment on that mech by someone.

now... where is my Wasp, Stinger, Flea, Mercury, Thorn, Valkyrie

[Christopher Hamilton]

yes, HATCHETMAN

[Luscious Dan]

Once again, PPC quirks apply to both PPCs and ER PPCs.

ER PPC quirks only apply to ER PPCs.

It probably should say "PPC Family" to be more clear but regardless, PPC quirks on a mech with ER PPCs will still provide the benefit.

*nvm.*
