Seems a bit tall. Might not be though.
PGI, look, I get it, the Assassin is not the most popular mech; it probably didn't get that many pre-orders. It is, however, one of the classics. It has a following, memories, people who love it. So it feels a little unjust that your home grown Roughneck gets a separate post for lore and blueprints the day it was released for ordering and here we are on the week before the Assassin drops in the game and still haven't received that treatment. Since you began doing the lore and blueprints the ASN is the only Mech thus far that I actually wanted to see that for. So please, could you through the poor 40 tonner a bone? (It needs it)

Panoramic moonroof, nice!

I want the -26, just for the ballistic in the side torso, but the ECM -27 doesn't interest me I guess.

I'm in agreement with Bolamite, need some fluff and blueprints! (on a side note, does anyone else think the collectors badge looks like a Hi-Point?).

I'd buy this today if it included 25 additional Loot Bags, like the Javelin.

Can't see why it would have been excluded.

I'm not sure why 25 loot bags are worth $20 to you.

They're not.

3 Assassin Mechs, 30 days of Premium Time, and 25 Loot Bags, are worth $20 to me.

We already got bonus loot bags for Assassin preorders in a previous event.

If this is the amount of comments being generated by the Assassin, it's going to be pretty easy to get a top 75 position

After seeing the SRM4 nerf in action on the Assassin preview stream, I gotta say I've lost a lot of the excitement over this mech.

Yeah theres an irony how badly this mech gets hurt the day it arrives.... it didn't look super strong before but now the grind will be harder. Oh well gives us a challenge. ;)

Also saves me 20 bucks. If its not enjoyable to run, don't need the 30% c-bill boost. I was legitimately considering it, but after seeing those SRM4s in action... nope.

Ignoring the Assassin isn't going to hurt my feelings, but if my Javelin gets this kinda disrespectful treatment... they gon cash me outside!

Well, based on the images they gave us, its head is lower than a Phoenix Hawk's (and doesn't have the Torso Thingies sticking up even higher) and just a smidge taller than the Ice Ferret.

So it seems to be in relative height to other 45 tonners...

I'm liking a lot my Assassins. It's not only a great backstabber, but very survivable in the frontline too.

Have you found a good fit for the 23 as I'm struggling with that one?

Good hitboxes and SRM4-Artemis groups up just fine, especially the variant with the 3 hardpoints in the Right torso.
