Those STs will be hard to utilize if they're going to be such easy targets.

Yeah I actually hope they downsize them a little bit... they look awkwardly large.

But still, this mech will be fine. It will slide in to rank along side the MCII/MAD-IIC/SNV no problem.

The Blood Asp is an optimized 90-ton omnimech. It dominates on tabletop. However, I don't like this visual rendition of the 'mech. I more like how it looks in its third sculpt of the Iron Wind Metals mini:



I think the legs on the MWO rendition kill it for me the most. Also, I think the mini looks so much beefier. I wouldn't mind if the 3D artists make the torso thicker and the legs stumpier, even getting rid of the obvious knee joints.

The guns are WAY too big on that mini and the legs and pelvis look super awkward.

Hi folks,

wouldn't the EARLY ADOPTER REWARDS have to deal with Star Adder and Bloodspirit anymore?
As happened with the Fafnir.

With kind regards

WHY DO YOU GIVE US REASONS TO SPEND MONEY!? It is too beautiful and all around amazing
Also, a quick reminder, Urbanmech IIC. April 1st. RIGHT PGI???

[FORCELLO]

It looks great, but Mechassault 2 had the best looking Blood Asp in my opinion.
It looked so menacing when it walked towards you.

Ah, I remember that thing. (...and the lasers I put in its back)

PS. Thank you for the shiny.

Still have mine, with 2erppc.

Too redundant, IMO, so soon after MCII. Blood Kite woulda been a more diverse choice.

Really guys? Hype.. Hype... Fanboy Posts over and over....

JUST BUY all that "lovely" Mechs hope you enjoy... a Game where you run around in circles with all that shiny new Bull***.

Devs are unable to "balance" the game but create things to get Cash from brainafk ppl that spend their money for.

So have fun when you do your next yolo suicide run.... works with old mechs same way

ok i will make a er large lazer snv-1 and u bring the er large lazer blr and just fire at each others center torso and see who wins

Well.... the Supernova has a CT structure quirk and the BLR-1G doesn't... so... i wonder.... who might survive longer.

Clan Enhanced ER PPCs should be added to the game to go along with this. Early adopting this baby either way, as it was one of my favorite mechs in MechAssault 2, but this would be a golden opportunity to give Clan a second PPC option. No not Plasma PPCs, those aren't lore, EER PPCs is what I'm talking about, which are lore.

Had this come out a couple years ago, I would've bought it immediately. It was the mech I was waiting for ever since I played mechassault2. But now that its here, it doesn't like there's much of a community anymore. How long will mwo last?

This Blood Asp is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen! 2 Thumbs up! I remembered Mektek's Version back in the old Mw4 Mercs days, but PGI's Art group just simply killed it! Well Done!

Explain to me why you would want PGI to add a 'new' clan weapon to the game that is identical to the current ERPPC except it does less damage.

IS ER PPC >>>>>>>> 15 heat 10 damage on TT
Clan EER PPC >>>>> 15 heat 12 damage on TT
Clan ER PPC >>>>>> 15 heat 15 damage on TT

Why add something that was just an experimental half way point in the normal ER PPCs development?

[Thorn Hallis]

As the artwork seems to be heavily inspired by the MC2 version I wonder if we also get homing-gaussslugs with it. ^^

Wow, looks scarily good!
I was expecting an IS light, but this was easily the most in-demand assault mech.

Which mech do you guys wonna see next for:

• Lights
  
• Mediums
  
• Heavies
  
• Assault

I feel like the Lollander could be next. We'll see.

Hm... somehow its a must-have. Somehow it will be like the Marauder IIC oder the Mad Cat MKII just with higher Ballistic Slots... Also with 90t probably too much for FP...
A 60t mech would have been better... Will i buy it anyway? Probably. 2 Gauss Rifle on the roof sounds like fun!

I guess there wont be any quirks for it. Also: Probably C-Gauss nerv incoming with the blood asp
