My favorite mech has to be the Unseen Battemaster.

It's just an all around good machine for dispensing death and destruction.

It gets even more wicked when I get to modify it.

Sry guys, i've forgotten to write about the "(and why)" in the topic name.

The Annihilator is one of my three fav. mechs because of its unique look and armament. In addition, many people hates it. That makes the Annihilator "sympathetic" to me. I really love the Annihilator since MW2: GBL.

The Warhawk is one of my fav. three mechs because it is just a beautiful and powerful OmniMech. As a kid, is saw it and fell in love with it. In addition it is a famous quality product of my favorite Clan (Smoke Jaguar).

Now the Tarantula. Max speed of 130 km/h, able to jump up to 240 meters and 360 degree torso twist combined in a sexy looking quadmech. Nuff said! In addition i keep Tarantulas (Birdeater's) as pets and breed them since 17 years. This makes the Tarantula to my personal TotemMech.

No winner, no loser. All three mechs are on my personal 1st place!

Annihilators were always so easy to bring down. In close quarters yes they are a monster, but in open terrain they'll get dropped fast. Back when my PC could run MW3 I took a Puma with it's two PPC's and brought down a star of 8 Annihilators, no problem since they couldn't close to me fast enough.

I hate all clan type mech´s. Firstly my favorite was Panther, only lack of speed. Lovwd that jump capability´, then awesome PPC anf jewel of the crown is SRM4. beat that sucker, it´s hard to kill.

I think I'll be going with my Rifleman. It always has and always will be my favorite mech. It was one of the first ones I played with in tabletop and the first I 3D modelled. Sure it's old and not as doomy as other mechs out there but eh. Even with dual lasers and autos I can still rip things to shreds. I really do hope we get to see it in MWO.

Timberwolf/Mad Cat... Since I was a kid, I used to look longingly at the Mechwarrior 2 box, and think.. Oh god, this is so badass. So I still find it to be eponymous to the Mechwarrior games.... In my opinion.

For IS of course the MAR-5D 'Marauder' since the first Battletech Book i've read - and it was also the first Book written(Decision at Thunder Rift)
For the Clans it would be the Vulture/Mad Dog - but the 'real' one, not the Mechwarrior 3 thing

[Stormwolf]

Timber Wolf with a custom config of mine. It is a well balanced mech that is something of a icon to my favourite faction.

[TripleHex]

My favorite mech would probably be the Axman, but if they can't get melee combat into the game, I'd go with a Hatamoto-Chi. It's a solid mech with proven technology, and can be rather easily upgraded in a number of ways with LosTech or Clan Tech.

[Beckzi Suominen]

Truly, my alltime favorite one, is Marauder. First time saw that mech, my heart bounced. Twin PPC and medium laser´s relying on that hunchbackbacked Autocannon 5. Truly one to love, said Greyson from Deathlegion. Who want me on their side? Always hailing the glory of Marik, the free world´s league!

The Wolf Trap.

Don't get me wrong, I had plenty of mechs I loved in the TT game, but most of those were ones I designed anyway. The Wolf Trap is special for me as it was my mech when I was playing Mechwarrior as an RPG. That LB 10-X was just... right.

But I got to say that the Shadow Hawk is an all time favorite, ever since it was on the cover of the Citytech rulebook. I started playing when the game was called Battle Droids...

[Drakewolff Kerensky]

that would have to be the Dire Wolf for me

For me my favorite mech of all time was the Hauptmann with a heavy guass riffle, for me this bad boy was the embodyment of stick it and forget it base defense.

[DaZur]

You know it as the Greek God of the sky... It's prime variant really does represent "lightning and thunder" with (RLM15 and and an A/C5) and a gaggle of lasers...

You know him... you love him... ya gotta have him.... ZEUS!

[Red Harvest]

Marauder (MAR-3D) classic design, just love the design

[Gun Bear]

The Hellspawn, I love the way it looks...

Also the Battlemaster 4S specifically that one

[Quardak]

There are so many Mechs to be loved .

I specially loved the Marauder with 2 Heavy Lasers and the AK/5. Easier Head Managment and a lot of Fun in Close Combats.

Also loved the Classic Thunderbolt. A Mech in TT which never dies....

[Dream Seaker]

i think i'm going to have to go with either, the vulture, shadowcat, mad cat, firefly, or the uziel. :3

[Magnus Grimm]

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

[Qayos]

For me, it had to be the Marauder (MAD-5D) It was my favorite.

[phinja]

for the medium, it's close between the bushwacker and the hellhound

for heavy it's the timber wolf or nova cat
