I'm a little surprised by the amount of whine over the Uziel, every source aside from MW4 called it average at best and out right bad at worst. When it's art was shown to be like that of the TRO, several people knew it would have convergence issues, light of sight issues, hit box issues as well as tonnage issues. Yet it seems that all of that freely given knowledge in several different threads was ignored or told they would be wrong... nice to see some vindication.


As for the Anni, she lives by the grace of her quriks, nothing more, nothing less. With out those toughness quriks, it would vanish faster than the Uziel has.

I have played dozens of games piloting the ANH 2A and 1E. Here is my feedback on the mech.
  • The mech is incapable of climbing over even the smallest of terrain elements. Seems to get caught up in even small boulder piles. Why would a 100 ft mech have an issues stepping over things much smaller mechs routinely walk over?
This annoys me as well, and it's something that you encounter in any mech now and then and it's because getting over obstacles is a function of the speed of the mech, which it really shouldn't be. The mechs in fact behave as though they had wheels and not legs. I really hope that PGI fixes this.

  • The mech does not possess enough pod space to sufficiently cool the weapons you mount using double heat sinks. I have resorted to using single heat sinks on the 1E.
Lots of IS mechs suffer from this unfortunately.

It's a very fun mech to blow to hell with airstrikes / artillery.

It's powerful on the horizontal plane but crap on the vertical angles

Protection of clan assault? wtf you talking about B? Clan assaults are squishy af. No structure or armor quirks.

I am a returning founder with a heavy favoritism to Catapult. I WILL NOT run Clan trash. I bought the ANH/UZEL packs and I have to say the ANH is the bi-polar mech from hell. After a long holiday weekend of playing I am back to my Catapults to raise my ranking back above IV.

1. You either SMASH or get SMASHED. No in between. Most of the time its you getting SMASHED.
2. You get no flank or fire support. Team members rush around you oblivious to your arse hanging out.
3. I got my first team kill due to freaking heavies crossing my firing path..... happened again next night.
5. Armor perks are not enough when you are the point of the spear. Average time from first shot to cored 3-5 seconds.

Where is "four"? My arse is really four from the pounding I took all weekend in the ANH.

if you can handle something that fat then you have a good spheroid hundy tonner.
