I wanted to give a shout out to our Art Director Dennis, he's responsible for the awesome frozen city concept piece and integration of Alex's Catapult.

The frozen city is sweeet. I imagine stray weapons fire sending shards of ice everywhere, like shattered glass.

Nice take on the 'mech; even though it's more chunky in proportion, it still manages to pull off the bird like aura of the catapult.

It will be interesting to see your artist's take on the clan mechs, who's armor can be formed into more fluid shapes...

Cool 'Mech!

Funny accents too! The first one was supposed to be a generic European/Germanic one, the second was the stereotypical Russian talk, what were the other two? They reminded me of old Asian proverbs... I can see your writers are having fun, stretching the creative muscles, assigning "hats" to each region...

One of my all-time favorites as well.

My initial reaction was YYEEEEESSS!.... hmm, legs seem kinda fat.
But as I reviewed my TRO I realized that it wasn't that the legs were fat, its that the "toes" are kinda too small.
Then as I continued to look at it, I realized I loved it all the same.
By far my favorite of the revealed mechs. (Still hoping for my Marauder of course).

Who wants to bet that next month we get another light?

P.S. Already have this joker set as my wallpaper, but I want an orthographic view... please?

Its a stunning picture, The chassis is instantly recognisable, and the new lines are exciting and fresh, If the game (and im sure it will) continues to encompass this formula, its going to be sooooo awesome.
I can see myself converting many of these designs into physical models in due course

I like the look of the cockpit on this iteration of the Catapult way more than past versions, it used to look ridiculously weak because of how much of it was glass.
