This was a strange case where the Inner Sphere name actually sounded better then the Clan.

Honestly, I prefer the name Summoner, a lot. Thor makes me think too much of Marvels' silly Goldilocks with a Mallet to realyl sound "strong" to me.

Of course, of all the Original Invasion, IMO, Hellbringer always had the coolest name.

Whereas I prefer the name Loki. Not the meanest sounding name, but Hellbringer sounds so full of angst, like they were trying too hard to *sound* fearsome.

Well, back when the Clan Invasion started (1990) coincided with me getting into Black and Death Metal, sooooo..... IDK.. my generation never did angsty like the Grunge thru Pop Emo Kids... we did Angry pretty well, though.

But let's be honest... just look at all the trappings of the clans themselves... "Smoke Jaguar", Goliath Scorpion"... and wearing "scary masks" etc... always kind of felt like angsty tryhards, period, to me.

Like little Nicky felt inadequate compared to Daddy, or something.

Fell in love with it 20 years ago. Too bad it's one of the crappy MWO designs.

You know, sometimes the Viper looks like a proper warmachine with that cockpit and all:

Something about a mech with jazz hands always amazes me.




Also the Timberwolf and MAD/MADIIC looks amazing.
