mine would be the hunchback closely followed by the commando....i like to "SUPRISE AC/20 / SRM BARRAGE" to the face

[renegade mitchell]

Summoner. Won my TOE with it, and best overall all purpose mech for any engagement.

The Wraith. It was table top, a King of the Hill tourney. I held the hill long enough to win, though I was swiss cheese when It was over. I didn't need heat sinks I was so full of holes.

Mine will resolutely be an Unseen 'Mech. The Warhammer.



That is the picture that made me buy the box set knowing nothing about the game. She was my first date to the prom and will always be my first love.

This.

This cover brought me into tabletop. Warhammer was my gateway drug, though the Rifleman and Dervish is where my heart eventually went to.

The Marauder hands down. Serious firepower, decent speed, looks kickass in my opinion. What's not to love?

How about its bigger badder cousin...I would Have to go with a Nightstar...

[Korps]

Wolverine...perfer 8K

[Roughneck Rider]

Marauder...work the guns well and watch them fall. I can take damage and give it just as well.

Bushy!



Attack helicopter bolted on top of a Vulture? Sign me up!

The "center torso" is a thin strip down the middle, and with a standard engine, the Bushy is very hard to kill. It's also very manuevrable so it can run circles around anything the same tonnage or above it. Looks best with teeth, like a P-40 Warhawk.

Sorry I was wrong about the Omni modules in the Kodiak.

Thought this would be fun
post a pic and why its your favorite


So mine is the Vulture
Since i first saw it loved it
Thing looks fast sexy and mean
I like chicken walker mechs the best too people walkers not so much lol
Second its in game im playing nothing but this one haha
Also love its cockpit placement to me it just looks like fun fun fun
Also the laser Turret under the nose....love it

i like vultures, they blow up so fast when you shoot them in the missile wracks, its not even funny.

my favorite mech is an atlas, because of the skull that blocks most headshots gotta hit him in the eye for it to count, and its gotta be the correct eye!

also i like the fact it carriest the heaviest possible armor load, and can fit some fun toys for blowing the bejesus out of everything it comes across.

sure its big, slow, cant jump. but you gotta love a mobile fortress mech for its charms.

Annihilator is capable of mad forms of ultraviolence , and it looks pretty sweet doing it. Love the pseudo retro lines, trading the traditional mech blockiness for smoother sleek curves. She’s a looker and a fighter. Needs some badass decals though.

my arena anni had 4 lbx 20s and 2 lbx 10s, it knocked down anything it hit, that is if they survived the first hit to fall down. only drawback is the head, its not exactly hard to snipe it off on top of that tower.....

[Ryedog]

The Mad Cat is my favorite because its a good clan omni mech. Long range is a safe range but it also packs two ppcs for a nice mid-punch also has decent speed. My only negative on it would be that it is a little too amo dependent and doesnt have jump jets like the mk2. Not to mention it is also an iconic mech.

[XXRAZERBACKXX]

This turned out to be a pretty cool thread thanks all that posted

[Marauder504]

Surprised no one has mentioned the Thug. While it isn't the fastest, for an 80 ton mech to go over 60 km/h isn't bad. It's got good armor and a balance weapons layout. Newer versions with even better weapons are even nicer. But even with just 2 PPCs and 2 SRM-6 it can deal it out to the enemy.

Thug's a'right, But I feel I should revisit my earlier posting and add to it by weightclass and allegiance:
Light: Firefly, haven't seen it in action since MW3. Clan Light: Kit Fox
Medium: Legionnaire, always a good 'mech. Clan Medium: Ryoken, missile boat ftw
Heavy: Catapult, for reasons previously stated. Clan Heavy: Vulture, again, for reasons previously stated.
Assault: Annihilator, hands down, no questions. Clan Assault: Dire Wolf

[Manny Rhyde]

my fav mechs are the enforcer and the starslayer. i hope either one will make it to MWO one day

[Rocketbrain]

My favorite mech has been and always will be the Jenner, I got atached in Mech 2 when i thought it looked like the USS Enterprise grew legs.

[Orion Pirate]

I TOTALLY forgot about the Black Knight!

http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Black_Knight

Goodness the game needs this as a Command mech!

And if I forgot, honorable mention to the Highlander and the Victor, for both being huge and jumpy...

If this game starts pumping out mechs... WOW!

I used to hate this mech. Then I started using it.
Fast, perfect weapon loadout (for me), decent twist. It's low to the ground and the shape of the chasis somehow makes it great for spreading out damage.

btw, 2 lbx20 and 2 ssrm6 @ ~98 km/h

And there was me thinking I was alone.

[KANE LIVES]

The Archangel Dominus. Why?
1 It looks epic.
2 Weapons. 2 heavy PPCs, 1 Snub-nose PPC, 2 ER Medium lasers.
3 It's Word of Blake.
