Looks great to me. I don't know that I'm going to be using them but I like the look overall.

Looks too much like a catapult, the teaser image was better, but other than that it's okay. The artwork in MWO in general is very good, and I like the way that alot of these designs have been militarized aesthetically. The original Stalker image looks absurd in comparison to MWO's grittier, more realistic interpretation.

Now we need a chicken-legged medium mech with misslie-pod arms to complete the family:

Raven -> ??? -> Catapult -> Stalker

I vote the Men Shen though I don't think any variants have missiles in the arms:

The Stalker has always been an ugly, ugly, ugly mech. Reinvisioning it as a heavy version of the catapult (or, technically, the catapult as a lighter version of the Stalker) is a good idea. It looks far better than the TRO art while still looking primitive like an ancient, basic assault mech.

The original Stalker design looked like a giant ***** with legs, ironically enough. I prefer the new design as it appears more appropriate on the battlefield, even if it does slightly resemble the Catapult.

EDIT: LOL cool, they automatically censored the word. Well, given the context and if you put your mind in the gutter for a little bit, I'm sure you guys can figure out what I meant to say.

Ewww I forgot about that one. It looks like someone took a Chocobo and mounted lasers on it.
