I played the Chromehounds "Campaign", for what it's worth.

My best 'Hound style? Artillery. My chosen Founder's Mech? Take a wild guess. :P
HA! My favorite build used a large mass of the "boom spikes". Poor me, I have to wait for melee...

So want my Hatchetman.

Oh Hells yes! The Panther is a vicious machine. Looks are important, and I like the humanoid style.

I can't wait till Melee is introduced, then I can use my Panthar to fly up to an Atlas and punch it right in the face.

And maybe you're right Pvt. Dancer, but still it would be nice to have a Laser boat that actually is a laser boat.

The Chameleon would be fun. It has been in the game since the first box Battletech game came out. Well before Cresent Hawk's Inception. I doubt it will ever be introduced here though.

What do you mean by 4/6/4? I've never played the Table Top, sadly, I don't kno where to get it. Also, 6/9/4 and all those other Number/number/number. What do they mean?

And I sort of agree, I like the Panthar because it has Jump Jets, it has a PPC and some really decent armor for a Light mech. Plus it has a nice design. What I don't like about it is what you stated: Speed. Not only that, but lack of intermediate ranges: What if you run out of SRM ammo and the guy is too close for you to fire your PPC? That might be remedied by turning the SRM-4 to a 2 and maybe adding a few small or medium lasers.


You can get it through Catalyst games:

And I would accept it with opens arms... Except I would drop the back Medium Laser and front medium lasers for three Medium Pulse Lasers and extra armor. Maybe paint it black with red diagonal strips.
