Someone give me a clan jade wolf alpha galaxy cauldron born.



Maybe a Clan wolf in exile alpha galaxy one as well

edit: not demanding this from anyone in particular, i just found the colour schemes in megamek and thought they were awesome. Specifically the jade wolf one, since its not on camospecs from what i can see.

Are they ever going to make any of the Clan IIC designs? I prefer them much more than the Omni Mechs. I'd love to see what FD could do with some of the IIC Mechs.

[Cimarb]

I am sure they will eventually, but they have been very hesitant about it due to balance issues between Omnis and standard mechs. The Omni system was designed to balance out the lighter, smaller and more lethal Clan weapons, but since the IS mechs were all quirked to match, I do not think they know what to do with them anymore.

[ChapeL]

I'd love to see clan battlemechs ( not necessarily the IIC ) like the Grizzly, Kodiak and Black Python. (I'll stop here since it has little to do with theis thread's purpose )

[Grendel408]

I'd like MWO to introduce the Mongrel/Grendel... that would probably be the only Clan Mech I'd buy

[Steel Raven]

The Grendel is a strong condender for the next wave of Clan Omnis if PGI doesn't go with ether the Pouncer or Black Lanner.

The Fire Falcon would add some much needed speed to the Clan light omni line up. We might see the Cougar first simple due to it's popularity over the years but the Fire Falcon did reach production first (3052) while the Crougar was introduced during the Battle for Coventry (3058)

Mongrel/Grendel: http://www.sarna.net...l_%28Grendel%29

It's a tough nut for a 45ton Medium Clan Mech, and where I coined my name from after reveling at how well it did in TT matches

Oh, so pretty much a Clan "Centurion" then.

(oh, and thanks especially to Odanan. I am not sure what you did to color those internal areas like that, but I could not replicate it well enough, so had to use yours -.- )

Nice. Background makes it alot better to.

more or less... but better

[Max OConnor]

This is a quickie, but I think it looks pretty good. 22nd Freebirth Cluster Highlander IIC.

[Cimarb]

The placement of that Jag is very....appropriate...

Wow, much better than the original concept art colors!

PS: I didnt know the Jags let freebirths to pilot mechs (even if battlemechs)...

Well the 22nd Freebirth Cluster is listed in the Luthien module, and the Clans have to give the IIC Mechs to someone to pilot so.......... Each clan views Freebirths differently, but apparently even the SJ's use them. Thanks for the compliment.

Freebirth warriors come in handy as they're typically used for positions that would be considered unworthy of a trueborn warrior, like guarding ****** asteroid bases no one wants, or guarding PoW. All Clans use freebirths as they're more-or-less philosophically obligated to, however, some Clans just make it next to impossible for any Freebirth to actually qualify for warrior status. I know the Jade Falcons rig the warrior exam so only Trueborn pass. The Smoke Jaguars are a vicious clan so they probably do similar things.

IS that a jaguar in your pants? or you just happy to see me?

I agree, but I think sheer pragmatics would force some clans to accept them even if they had to lower their standards for Warrior. Eventually you have to fill the cockpits with someone and if no one can meet your standards, then you have to lessen the restrictions, besides, I would guess that Trueborns would want to have someone around to belittle when they are between battles.
