Is it me or is the head smaller than in the concept art? If so, no complaints there. Regardless, hopefully with that large head it comes with a lore-friendly bonus quirk to sensor range or something. I do worry a bit about the minor down-sling of the arms and how much extra exposure that will require.

A tentacle monster from outer space?
It's the first time I'm a bit jealous about a stupid badge. ^^

The Rifleman IIC hero is named after a genus of jellyfish.

Would love to get the Rifleman but those engine caps... not worth buying a pack and the extras just to get 2 versions with decent engine caps.

Damn, the in game model looks gorgeous. I'm just confused about the first badge though. Ak-47's for the Rifleman IIC? Lol, should it be Anti-Air guns or something? Regardless I can't wait to pilot it when it drops in a week from now.

What's the problem exactly? It can fit JJs and it's a sniper with that armor and speed and ability to boat 6 UAC2 or a bunch of lasers. It's a clan battlemech therefore you can stack a lot of weightsaving stuff for lazors and dakka, from away and uphigh.

I always suspected based on the imagery of the Kerensky cockpit hologram that they, the clans, were Soviet aka Communist. Based on the first badge, confirmed!

Its going to be a sniper sure but even snipers have to get into position fast enough or get out of one if it gets overrun soon ,but with those engine caps..ehh i don't know, i'll just wait and see.

There were a lot of comments about it looking like the squid from Spongbob Squarepants
Seems the team embraced that with a camo scheme and badge.

When a new mech is put in, PGI usually adds in other minor changes to MWO with a patch. Is there any improvement patches coming on the same day the Rifleman IIC is release?
