Is it Jager like Mick Jagger, or Jager like in Jagermeister?

I've never seen an umlaut above the "a" so I've been pronouncing it like Mick Jagger.

Also you should make this thread a poll to see what % of people pronounce in certain ways.

Since unless I am horribly mistaken, it's German just like Jagermeister (Hunt master) so would assume Jagermech (Hunt Mech) would be pronounced the same way. Also that's the only way I've heard it pronounced by anyone who didn't have a history of just making it up as they went along.

In German it's in deed called "Jägermech", so I guess that's the best way to pronounce it.

Edit: Phonetic spelling [ˈjɛːɡɐ]

I guess I have to stop calling it Mick-JaggerMech, the Jagermeister is a better nick name anyway[color=#959595] [/color]

Won't overheat, you can keep firing continually. May not be that great in TT, but I bet it could find a good role as support in MWO.

For what it's worth, it's a well regarded mech in the fluff,...

Oh? Well if the JagerMech is serving in the Isle of Skye, I guess it might be more appropriate to call it an Irish Car Bomb.

Nice, OP, you made it a poll.

Now add Durfendorper if you can.
