Gonna need some pro tips on running this.

Maybe train with the Oxide or Jenner-IIC in advance?

EDIT: Wait, this was another spear pun wasn't it? I'm not too sharp today and may have missed the point

is it just me or is something with the way the beams from the lasers are placed wrong? Were they added after the screenshot was taken or is it a "live" picture? Some how it looks like they are going upwards while the lense is pointing downwards

(Would a lance of Javelins be called a phalanx?)


Javelins are actually thrown spears, while the greek and especially the famed macedonian phalanx used the sarissa, a several, usually 5, but up to 7 meters long pike.

Sorry for not throwing in any funny points and skewering any joke you might have intended.

Why does it say "Roughneck Titles and Badges" and "Roughneck Pattern Desktops"? You guys so busy with your puns that you missed that?

Edit: Fixed that one pretty fast. Less than half an hour. Posted Image

PGI guys, how about you check the OP, because you have copied the Roughneck thread without changing it to Javelin Posted Image

Like Rampage said.

Oh and BTW: It is MARIK, not MERIK :D

See how they put the additional launchers OUTSIDE the torso on the Liao and Davion pics?

Oh how I hate it when they do it like that...

I mean, it was fixed on the Catapult eventually, so at some point in time someone was aware of the problem.

I'm really tempted to get this thing. But I'm a little hesitant because of how broad and flat the torsos are. I'm hoping for some armor/structure quirks alongside the "quirks" from the new skill tree.

I get it that with maximum missile count (looks like 10/6/4) the launchers need to be externalized, but I am expecting 2xSRM4 and 3xSRM2 configurations to be externalized as well, and that is a letdown.

Apart from that the model looks pretty good though.

Can we have a screenshot of the Special variant as well?
