Is this the insignia of the Black Omen on the left shoulder?

Yes, that is the insignia of the Black Omen mercenary unit...

Don't wanna copy the whole article... but you can find out more of the Black Omen here @ sarna.net

I noticed the logo right off the bat... didn't troll through all 9 pages of comments, but this is cool ;) great work FD!

Run. Then Run. After that, some more running. Then, suddenly, JUMP JETS.


And then running.

Why the Spider? Sure it's fast, but its hardpoints will be severely limited. 2 Energy in the CT and maybe 1 Ballistic in each arm?

Looks really good however. If only the miniatures looked this good!

Ok, I'll have to say it:
This is great. A truly masterful re-design.

Let's be honest, the original was... less than anything resembling aesthetically pleasing. Although I did like the re-design WizKidz did for their Dark Age clicky game, but this one is closer to canon. I can respect that.
Again, wonderfully done.

Seems like an odd choice considering the limited variants available (within the current timelime).. maybe the decision was based one simply having an ultra fast ligth with phenomenal JJ distances. Still.. there are so many other possible mech choices, makes this one a bit of an od ball this early into the game..

Thats definately some pretty cool CG Graphics.
Is it just me though, or does it look like the cross between a Cylon, and a
Trade Federation Star Wars Battle Droid?

This redesign is... different.
I'm not saying "bad", because it is a nice-looking Mech and suits the universe nicely. But if I weren't told what it was, I wouldn't know what it was. It's different.
That said, YAY! I'm so glad this is in. The Spider was one of my favs at MW2 multiplayer, especially for city maps. It was so bleeding fast I could hit-and-get before they knew where I was coming from. Not a single rear armour location was safe from me!
