[Palamore]

Looks good to me, little road runner mech to annoy those sluggish HVY's :-)

[Tibs]

Im always up for fast mechs but wounder you can charge like in pen paper ver...

[Odanan]

Honestly, I think the devs should replace this triple-barreled design of Ultra AC. It is very cool but makes no sense. The triple barreled ACs are the Rotatory ACs, like this RAC2 built in 3062:

There are many AC, UAC, and LBX with multiple rotary cannons. They were in canon art before there were RACs.

So I removed that thing (supposedly UAC5):



It's not a great job but someone had to do it.

EDIT: improved version.

someone in here said that the cicada had a 11 ton heavier engine compaired to the Jenner, can't find the post...
where did you find this information?
ps what does the standard engine for cicada weight? i know that it is more than 20 tons but how much?

will there be enough hard points to have a er ppc in torso area and 1 m. gun per arm? 2 balistic 1 energy hardpoints?
EDIT: Can we even add anything to the arms to start with?

That looks great. It's just getting better and better.

[Gauge]

Every time I see the art for this 'mech, I love it a little more. I'm gonna have to get one and do something with it...

[Targun Darklighter]

got some plans for this one

[PermaHexx]

I am from the south, USA. They are everywhere here. You pronounce it: C-Kay-Dah, See K Dah, Ciada

CDA-3C - The -3C Cicada is an attempt to allow the 'Mech to have a much greater reach with devastating results. To do this, the maximum speed has been reduced to 118.8 kph and the Medium Lasers have been replaced with two Machine Guns and the Small Laser has been replaced with a PPC.

I had one of these in tabletop. At first when I rolled it I was disappointed thinking I'd just been landed a right gimp but it's a very nice machine. Speed, range and punch.

to continue on the above:

'
A cicada ( /sɪˈkeɪdə/ or /sɪˈkɑːdə/) is an insect of the order Hemiptera, suborder Auchenorrhyncha (which was formerly included in the now invalid order Homoptera), in the superfamily Cicadoidea, with large eyes wide apart on the head and usually transparent, well-veined wings. There are about 2,500 species of cicada around the world, and many of them remain unclassified. Cicadas live in temperate to tropical climates where they are among the most widely recognized of all insects, mainly due to their large size and unique sound. Cicadas are often colloquially called locusts,^[1] although they are unrelated to true locusts, which are a kind of grasshopper. Cicadas are related to leafhoppers and spittlebugs.'

because it matters... =p

[Adrienne Vorton]
