I honestly barely see Gargoyles even.

I mean, thats because the 400 engine is very tonnage inefficient and should never be used in MWO build rules where engine rating doesnt need to be an exact multiple of chassis weight. And using a 400 engine without endo steel? Whoever designed the Gargle should be shot. Repeatedly.

The Warhammer IIC is a better comparison, obviously, and yeah, i feel like the PHX-IIC would probably obsolete it due to better mounts and JJs... but meh. I already dont play WHM-IICs because they arent good enough to make up for not having ECM.

Yes . ( Not biased at all )

lol. Yeah, i meant it in universe.. you know:

Engineer: Khan, i have that new mech design you wanted.
Khan: I see. this is an 80 ton design. My word, its very fast, just as fast as a Timber wolf. Tell me, how much additional pod space does the extra 5 tons of drop weight buy us?
E: Erm, well, it has a much smaller payload than a Timber Wolf. But it is very fast! Well. Quite fast. As fast?
K: I suppose its pricey too, since the 400 rated engine is very expensive since its very heavy the mech obviously runs on an Endo Stee... wait. This doesnt have Endo Steel, but does have the heaviest possible engine? Who hired you?! This is the worst mech design ive seen since .. You know what? **PPC**

just some things that need to be done if we add the phoenix hawk iic if we base it on the cgl model 1 fix the lower shins they are entirely inaccurate and just look bad b fix the shoulders so things are masive and would make the hit boxes terribly and they are inaccurate just base those 2 parts on the og fasa design or just steal the cgl chargers shins that works too



also no the Warhammer iic is nothing like a phoenix hawk iic because we are not allowed to put a 400xl engine in the bludgeon which is only Warhammer iic that is anything like pxhiic because its the only one with jump jets

also also we need to finish all the anime iic aka shadow hawk griffin and locust iic to finish the set

I'd much rather like the new design that was incorporated in the ilClan Recognition Guide v15. Never really liked the glossy gundam style.

Too much power creep, with all the new assaults.

We've been asking for the Wasp for years.
