Granted it looks amazing, but personally i have a thing for chicken walkers, ;)


I'm guessing MW4 just gave the second picture Arctic Wolf instead of Arctic Wolf II since that what it's really named, that little bit always irked me on MW4.

perhaps we just make is omnis with xl engines the exception to the rule and make them able to survive a torso destruction

just a thought let me know what u guys think


Well.....since the LFE is coming up (that's the IS engine that can survive losing a torso), it seems a bit redundant.

Except, by PGI's rules, you can't swap engines on an Omni. So, no.

Omni's need to abide by the same rules, no matter the faction. Just as Battlemechs abide by the same rules regardless of faction.

I mean seriously, could you imagine the salt that would spill from the Clan players if IS Omni's could do engine swaps, armour swaps, internal structure swaps or heat sinks swaps while theirs cannot?

I do understand that holding to the same rules will render several IS Omni's to the trash heap, but well they were bad to begin with... Owens and Strider being top contenders for worst in class for early IS Omni's.
