Maybe keep Rifleman IIC talk in the Rifleman IIC thread instead of derailing this one.

I'm gonna go ahead, be all sneaky and try to bring this thread back on topic. At least somewhat.



Looking back at the concept art for the Annihilator, I somehow remembered his neck way longer than it was actually depicted.

I was actually looking forward to humourous match situations, where a disembodied Annihilator head would peak over high cover, poking people with his head mounted medium laser. Would probably be funny for the first two times, making it hard to imagine that there is a rather scary 100t assault mech below that hovering locust of a head.

Was also looking forward to eventually seeing "fan-art" of refashioned "whack-a-mole" arcade machines, having little Annihilator heads pop up out of it....

As you all might be able to tell, I may or may not have taken that mech seriously Posted Image

Im waiting till pictures and quirks drop. None of them real interest me, probably wait untill c-bills. Was hopping for a good medium or heavy to drop. Meh. And meh. Makes it hard when i only buy IS mechs.

Seems like they didnt switch the ballistic slot with the energy slot in the arms...

And I would love that they made the MC Mk II - A have a ballistic hardpoint instead of that one enrgy. Want my 3 HMG symmetry for that one. Since its a battlemech, no omnipods to swap to get that...

Its the Deathstrike hero. Yeah, not like in the concept art. Dosent have missile bays.

Just count the slots man!
Its the Deathstrike.
2x Ballisitic 6x Energy

An YES removing ears on every variant if no missiles are present was already confirmed long ago.

As with the Timbie, yes. However, I'd be more interested to see what it looks like with SRMs, or possibly the smaller ATMs. That's of course on the variants with those hardpoints.

I'm looking forward to the cougars. The time in 90-115kph panthers has been slow and painful but I'll be interested. Not sure how I want to run them so I'll try out the med laser and lrm combo for a few rounds then try other weapon combos.

I'll try to copy-pasta the loadouts I used for my Cougars back in MW 4.
2 x LRM 10 with 2 x CERLL or CLPL FOR EXAMPLE.
