Now i honestly want to see your redesign of like every mech at sarna. im dying to see how you guys pimp out a Mauler, or Orion.
Hell even the warhammer, cuz frankly all you have to do is keep the same weapon load out, but put it on a different design. And with this artwork!? Im pretty damn sure you can re-invent the warhammer's look so legal issues wont even be there. Just sayin

I have been waiting forever to play a cataphract in a mechwarrior game. This is so awesome!

Kinda funny it has a ton more armor than the Hammer and a half ton less than the Marauder. Kinda undergunned compaired to them as well, but it does have jump jets for better mobility.
To be honest... it isn't a great mech. I think the ohh and ahh factor is the ACs mounted on it. As for the jump jets, I am not impressed as it is really a medium range mech with medium mech weapons with a max damage output of 40pts of damage... and the Cat can do 50pts max for 5 tons less, if everything hits. This is a mechlab mech that should be torn apart to give it a better load-out.

CTF-1X - The original prototype of the Cataphract, the 1X model is armed with a PPC as its primary weapon, which is backed up by an Autocannon/10. For close combat, the 1X model carries four Medium Lasers. Additionally, since the 1X was built before the discovery of the Helm Memory Core, it lacks any advanced Star League technology and is built with a standard engine. The 'Mech also lacks the jump jets of the 3D model.
No Jump jets. Sooooo.....*Scratches back of the head* Well, I guess it is a really busy week. Heh heh....

It's already been established that the picture is that of the 1X while the fluff story is about a 3D.

Don't know if I'll drive one though. And can the Capellans stop whining about being hard done by now. Catapult, Cataphract, Raven. It doesn't get any better for House Liao unless the Unseen show up.
