Stooping Hawk. Though I wish if animated it had something of a "loping" gait, similar to how you might see a gorilla run with it's arms close to the ground...kind of like the Mandrill from 3060, except the Mandrill looks terrible. Not sure there's much of a chance of ever seeing the Stooping Hawk, though.



The only mechs I really liked from TRO 3055 was the IIC mechs. Everything else looked like garbage to me, though I get that not everyone likes that animation style.

I kinda feel that way about the Imp, Flashman and Grand Crusader. (in that order) Garbage Cans for EVERYONE!!:

Still curious to see if we ever see a 'serious' rendition of the Flashman, though.

For the ones in the game, I have to admit that even Inglesias doesn't score a home run in many of them. But there are some that do in my opinion.

The Vindicator
The Enforcer
The Orion (the IIC on the other hand is plain ugly).
The Hunchback (the IIC is also ugly).
The Night Gyr
The Kodiak
The Atlas
The Mad Cat
The Mad Dog
The Jagermech

For me, I really like the look of the Sha Yu.


This is an upsized version of the TRO art(Original is really tiny). Performance-wise, the Sha Yu is basically the ERLL RVN-3L, but bigger and with stealth armor.

sarna has a higher quality picture if you want it

Thanks. What do you think of the Sha Yu Bishop? I personally think it would be a fairly good mech in MWO, especially since most of it's variants use stealth armor(which we are getting).

Makes me think of a less boxy Cicada with less going for it than the Cicada in some areas. PGI could easily mock up some new versions and make it a poster mech of stealth armor mechs. If it had jump jets it would be an effective side grade, trading fire power for mobility. Visually it is nice enough, gun arms aren't bad, design isn't too humanoid brick with legs, so I do like it, just wish it had a bit more to stand out with.

Well, it only has three variants(four if we count Bulldog), so it wouldn't be that hard to make some PGItech variants with JJs. The main reason I want it is so I can yell "blood in the water" before alphastriking.

I like em. Always liked to salvage them in MC2, and thought they were OK in TT. I think they'd be fine in MWO. Not "amazing",(it is a 40 tonner after all). My only real knock is lack of variety among variants.

Again, nothing a few Piranhatech variants couldn't fix(This is one of the few mechs I could tolerate PGI variants with, because the base variant is better than most of what people could come up with).

I really want to see some non isometric designs come out. I really like the bushwacker because it is a non isometric chassis. Although the Uziel looks darn sexy.
