I think that's one of your best (drawings)!

[S 0 L E N Y A]

Im just here to say, YES!

I need something outside of a Daishi that can carry 6 AC5s and still outrun a stock urbie.

Don't put XL on an IS assault mech, it's just not smart.

I'd rather have a Devastator

The Mauler 3R would be valid ground if C3 was implemented.

Look, it even has Jump Jets!

Every Mech in the game has C3 currently, with no slots or tons consumed. C3 is not a tech barrier at this time.

6xAC5 with big XL engine.
Cool.

You can't fit 3 AC/5 into a single arm.

If its already in the game files, lets add it to the game. Different enough to warrant it being added.

That's no Guarantee, I'm afraid.
While the Cicada was implemented nearly instantly, there's still a handful of original Invasion Clam pods that aren't in game (namely Summoner M) and even a Victor, the 9-A, which hasn't been thrown in. Well over a year (possibly even 2) for that one.

Dual Gauss Assaults, simply too Stronk (there were none back then).
Likely scrapped, and just recycled the hardpoints into the Dragon Slayer.

Cool.

A single Ballistic hardpoint per arm, I'm afraid. Unknown missiles (because LegoMechs).

Possible Hero Mauler?

The only Mauler that has ballistik arms is a custom variant. But this Tech is not available in MWO totime.


MAL-4X "Todesbote"

A custom configuration used by a Lyran Commonwealth criminal, this Mauler variant (named "Todesbote" by the LCAF) replaces the standard weaponry of a Mauler with a single Hypervelocity AC/10 in each arm, while the missile racks were replaced by MML-7s. Each autocannon has two tons of ammo while the twin MML-7s use a single ton of ammunition. All ammunition bays are protected by CASE II, and the "Todesbote" is protected by twenty-seven tons of Hardened Armor.

Cuddles wants a ballistic armed mauler .......

Doesn't matter what existing variants are about if we are talking a Hero Mech, now doe sit?

[Helsbane]

Another option to bring DAKKA? Yes please, even if it's a hero model.



And yes, we still need the Hammerhands.

This is another one id love framed in the Game room

Bishop, you could make a small mint off me sir. Keep up the good work.


As to B Arms on my Mauler, looks like a good time actually. I really do enjoy my shield arms on my 4 uac build this would be a monster me thinks.

Cool.

Judging from the pic, the ST B mounts got replaced with E mounts, so unless there's 2 B mounts in each arm, you'll be lucky to get 4x AC5s on it.

XL engines are a death wish for IS, the only thing that makes IS mechs on par with Clan is higher structure value, take away that with an XL engine and find yourself getting oneshot by a single Clan assault alpha or poked down in a few hill thumps.


The only reason for IS to ever use xl is in light/medium mechs that have little/no structure quirks and as a result are squishy/ die easy either way.

Considering my most common CoD, (cause of death), in the Mauler is CT coring, I don't really feel I'm losing anything by running an XL in it. YMMV.

You missed the bus.

Let me explain it to you.

The only Mauler that can have B-Arms must be a Hero.
