Sarna specs at 1:285 would make it 9.11" long. That sound about right?

Dunno, I use the metric system over here, but I have a good grasp of how large the mapscale Leopard is.

I like the hula girl :43 in.

Looks pretty looking forward to doing this in-game

.... DAMN IT! Now I want the ability to pilot drop ships!... which I know is highly unlikely

I'm totally fine with not being able to pilot it as long as I'm going to be dropped out of it!
Hell yeah!

Something tells me you like the movie Aliens... I have seen a few references from it by you

I don't know, it looks pretty close to me.

Sci-Fi is never about the future. It's about the 'future' of a particular place, time and culture. BattleTech is the future of 1980s America.

Generally speaking, I'm a purist when it comes to the 80s iconography in the BattleTech universe. That said, I have to comment on how impressed I am with the artwork for this game. This Leopard, for example: it looks like they preserved the 80s trope here and shook all the cartoon off of it. It's still an 80s spaceship, but far more believable.

Wonderful stuff. Wonderful stuff indeed!

I'm going out the side door, I've seen the movie Private Ryan, I see what happens when you stand in line waiting for the main door to go down.

What do you expect me to use, harsh language?

[Pvt Dancer]

I ment C-130 gunship from MW... or I could see it as the MWO version 'Door Gunner'.

More 80s Sci-Fi. You can't really go wrong with it, can you?

An Atlas grabbing a machine gun that looks like AC 40, and starts unloading from door position. That would be cool.

Leopard has a turret, that is wwhat you would be in control of if used in the applications I suggested... effectivily ground support that could be used for a command modual.

Full Metal Jacket FTW...
