So far either the Hunchback or the Catapult.

Still hoping for a Cataphact though.

Welcome to MWO S of S !!

[Exilyth]

I'm still hoping for a Raven.
Other than that, mhh... Might go for a Catapult.

If I was kuritan, I'd take a Dragon.

Same here - hoping for Capellan iconic Raven and, especially, for advanced ECM perks in Scout skill-tree. I can accept if Raven would be available only in cash-shop, that could help to reflect the rarity of this 'Mech.

If they allow the HBK-4J and the HBK-4N, they can attack at long ranges sense the 4J has two LRM10s and the 4N has an AC/5 and two LRM5s.

I swear, there is like 20 variants of the Hunchback.

There is a variant with 8 medium lasers....that's 2 AC/20

[KaiserSoze]

Sorry that,s six mediums and two medium pulse...

[Thorn Hallis]

No, you're right in the first place. There exists a Hnuchback variant with 8 medium lasers.

Really....

Dragon hunchback atlas for me so far. I don't like the protruding chest on the dragon though, whats up with that? But I like it better then any of the other heavy mech choices atm. I know its for the rockets but it still looks ugly shoulder mounted would have been better ;p (can anyone guess what mech im a fan of/hoping for ~_^)

See what I mean? There are so many variants of this mech. God I love the Hunchback.

[Rockhound085]

Unless I see a Templar or Tempest I will be going with the Hunchback, I may modify it to have a few longer range ACs, maybe a trio of 5s to annoy the hell out of the heavier mechs at stand off ranges I will be happy. Or mayb I will take the Commando for a spin, I always did love goofing off in a hell of a lot of mechs in as many roles as possible.

[Bernardo Sinibaldi]

Excellent. Well at least we now know what 'mechs the Davion forces will be fielding

I think this thread counts as a successful intelligence gathering mission. You can send the payment to the usual place...

[Furious George]

Commando! It will run much cooler than the Jenner. Infantry rarely have heat problems

[Tifalia]

Still waiting on my Crab, devs...

None of the previewed 'mechs have much appeal to me, although I suppose I would choose the Commando, if only for some of my more fonder memories riding that hulk of metal into combat than much of the others.

[Stormwolf]

I'm going for either the Centurion or Catapult.

[Bloody Moon]

My usual preference would be a chicken legged medium/heavy mech with beam/ballistic arsenal missiles strictly as support firepower, since we are lacking in that cathegory i'll prolly take the Dragon as my current fav and wait for the Mad Dog/Vulture or some other similar mech.

Be careful what you wish for. Otherwise you'll end up with a redesigned four-legged mech with claws and shoulder pads.

[Adridos]

What is it? As far as I know, crabs have 6+ legs.

[Asmeroth]
