well I like big autocannons so Hunchback definately play my resonant freqency,its maybe silly but I like Centurion just becose it looks so cool in my opinion

also dragon is nice but I feel that chest going to be easy to hit,maybe... I didnt played this game but I feel like its likely to happen,the bigger your on screen the easier it is to hit you,and central torso,isnt like other parts that you can loose and still be operational

I REALLY like the new design of Centurion, and I want to pilot that Hunchback, too. But they're no Marauder... *sniff*

So far either the Centurion or the Hunchback, but I'm still hoping I can get a Warhammer.

Indeed. For a while my signature was "'32.4kph should be enough for anyone' - attributed to William Doors, Orguss Industries". What can I say, I've driven Urbies for so long now it just seems natural to me to watch the world flow by at that speed.

I really am growing attached to the Commando now. Although I can't find a place to put my AC/20. Hmmmm, gonna call technical support once the game's out.

i am happy to see the centurian. ive piloted it since MW2-Mercs. If given the chance i would pilot it again. also, if given the chance, I would find a way to replace the AC/10 altogether, or swap some ammo lol.

I've always been partial to the Catapult. It's usually seen as a good Capellan design (though it's really a general 'mech).

I'm still holding my breath for the Vindicator, though!

Commando re-envisioning has grabbed my fancy. While I have generally been partial to that style of 'mech (humaniod body shape with discernable human like features) the Commando was actually the first 'mech (back nearly a decade ago) that really peaked my interest in the Table Top game. Weapons wise I feel the COM-2D could use a slight rework though (I hate having to count shots).

Do I have a problem when I like Shadow Hawk and Catapult? :D

I wouldn't like getting arrested by Kyll. :P

Let's just say I consider the Centurion a risky choice, since the Chancellor still considers anyone and anything even remotely connected to Justin Allard a threat. Call me paranoid, but I would not advise praising in public a Mech design he was renowned for piloting. :P

However, you can't go wrong with a Capellan mainstay like the Catapult. :D

As an enforcer pilot by trade, I think the nearest thing so far would be a Centurion, failing that in my scouting days it was a Jenner all the way, Fast and with a punch to take out rival scouts in one or two salvo's....nice!

Hopefully a Summoner/Thor, Or even though I know it will never happen, as it is a Clan mech.

Yep, exactly. There's more than enough threads talking about how great it would be if we could have "OMFG [insert favourite Clan 'mech]" so, just for a breath of fresh air, I thought it would interesting to see if there's any emerging trends in the 'mechs announced thus far. At first glance, the thing that stands out to me is that there's comparatively little love for the Atlas - surprising given it's an UberMech.

People will call me a Steiner for saying this, but... ATLAS. Why the heck would you use anything that doesn't weight at least 95 tons?

Where is the fun or challenge in that? Besides, the Atlas is nothing more than a paper weight in my eyes.
