I remember Raptor IIs from Dark Age sets. They were supposed to be mainly Republic, but enough got leaked into the other factions (Ghost Bear and Steiner examples). That's a bit far from the time line?

When they started trying to bridge the timeline of CBT to Dark Age they set it as a WoB mech originally and introduced it in 3073: http://www.masteruni...aptor-ii-rpt-2x

It is still past Bishop's cutoff, but I don't care, I like it

What kind of forum is this?

[The Amazing Atomic Spaniel]

Sunder! Great mech in MW4. No idea how well it would do in MWO.

Oh, and the Novacat

That, and there is a very real risk that, should PGI decide to put the original Raptor in the game, Alex will do that thing where he takes one of the later versions of a 'Mech for inspiration and calls it the original (see: MWO Stalker vs. Stalker I, though that's actually a desirable change), so I try to bury the Raptor II every chance. I want the tiny box bristling with guns, I don't want it to be "upgraded" visually to appear more menacing or anything. Once it's in the game properly, though, I wouldn't mind if PGI made the Raptor II.

I would like to see PGI stretch their creative wings and break into some new ground for pilotable options for us.

I know technically it's not a mech, but the Elemental would fill that 20ton light spot nicely as a point of 5 and be unlike any other mech we have in game now.



Dvergar has some mad concept art:


If this design wasn't used I would love to see what the artists at PGI could come up with.

Oh boy. I'm not so sure MWO is the right game for combined arms.

[Anjian]

Oh god that was 10 years ago already when Wizkids announced the Ares battlemechs.

I still have three of the five mechs.

Well, they are about as mech like as a non-mech option could be.
Don't really want to derail the thread but being able to drop into battle as one of these or leading a point of them? That would blow my mind.

Tanks, infantry and VTOLs could work in Facton Play.
