Was it this?

with a dash of this?

Personally, would have preferred the the -010 as it would be unique looking, and has a couple of neat characteristics, and I could care less about the viability of the ppcs in either ST, or how it has ballistics in the arms like every other KC. Just think it would be cool to see something a bit unique aesthetically, as in the flush mounted ppcs, the Splines out the back for heat diffusion, and the different color of the ppcs.

Now, I think rocking ppcs in the KC arms will be fun, but more of the same, just in a different spot.

side note - had to really dig that one out from halls of necro

Personally I really like Bishop's take on the Kaiju, GR in LT with PPC's in RT and SRM vomit in the claws...

That being said, this version of Kaiju that is being made will be dumping energy bolts into the ground....

Yeah those arms aren't going to lend themselves too well to plain old PPCs, I'd say drop them for LPLs or ERPPCs, things you can actually use in brawling range. ERPPCs would be hot though, maybe only do a pair of them.

Unless of course we're getting the option to disable field inhibitors as part of the tech upgrade, in which case, PPCs will be fine where they are.

I think it's a bit of a blend of both ideas, though more 6th Messenger's than mine. *shrugs* sure woulda loved to have gotten Hopper Morisson's ride into the game, etc...but if it was a choice of that or my Urbie?

No contest.

eh, what I see is either a pair of UAC5s or LB10X in the RT, SRMs or MRMs in the LT and 3x MPL in each arm.
