Found my 'Mech...thanks PGI

Seriusly, you Daviots have a Capellan mech fetish.

[Dihm]

Love it! Looks WAY WAY better than that old junker in the TRO that made me want to gag.

Actually, it reminds me a bit of the Grizzly now.

[Egomane]

Now all we need is the Vindicator and I am perfectly satisfied as a capellan.

It's because we build some of the very best Mechs you can get your hands on. I can totally understand them for liking our mechs. I just don't like them owning some of them.

The 'Phract is best to date.

No criticisms. Nailed it IMO.

Variant's should be interesting.

Can't wait to see what some of the talented folks around here do with repaints...specifically Liao colors.

Waco Ranger motif on top of a very nice design. There is the heavy brawler boys and girls.

[Hairlok]

Looks great ... one of the best so far

[Aerik Lornes]

Definitely replaced the Catapult as my preferred heavy mech design.

And according to Sarna, the factory that makes it was in Davion hands from 3030-3066. So that Waco pilot is probably lucky to have it.

While not part of the original 55, it is canon like the Raven (3028 instead of 3025), not some repurposed 3039 SLDF 'Mech b/c art rights got scuppered, and its never been used in the licensed computer games.

Satisfied.

...and interested to see how many FedSun pilots take this one up since post 4th Succession War, like the heavily salvaged Raven, it became a Sarna March staple of the Davions. Even McKinnon's Raiders used it.

Nice design. Never had the Cataphract in a MW game before, but always a solid mech in table top games.

I wonder if this is the CTF-3L variant with the ER PPC in the right arm instead of the UAC/5. Doesn't look much like an Autocannon...

That's certainly not the UAC5 - really looks like a PPC. Could be the CTF-1X or the CTF-3L.

Does the wording say "No Wolves, No Furries"?

You know, between this and the Catapult, I think we've seen all the component geometry pieces needed to build a Marauder model...

Or a Mad Cat/Timberwolf.

No. It's "No Wolfs, No Problem".

[Tronchaser]

I'm being blindsided with all the good news as of late. Very nice mech, and I'm not even a heavy mech guy.

+1

[TanE]

Beautifull! Perfectly translated to a high tech, bad-*** machine!

[Grendel408]

Beautiful artwork as usual FD! I really love the appearance and design balance you've made here... the old TRO design was too rounded in some areas and too boxy in others... You sir, are a genius!

Can you just redesign every 'Mech in tho TROs? LOL! (plz) I'd really like to see if the Mongrel (I.S. Designation: Grendel) in the game later... good medium 'Mech built by the Diamond Sharks (but we won't see it until the Battle of Tukayyid)...

I won't be going Clanner in MWO, but I'd love to see that one redesigned too!

This is the best looking mech second to Jenner. ;>

[Maurice]

Not what i expected but i can work with it some mods, it could be workable we will see nice pix

[Bullwerk]

Oh man I found my Mech ladies and gentlemen!!!! Now I need to get to work doing a repaint to the Robinson Red and Black!!!!!!!

Hayden and all any chance of a template for this coming out in the near future? I could muddle through but you guys do the nicest job with those!

Oh man am I excited!
