All mechs named after invertebrates need love, Crab, King Crab, Scorpion, Spider, Grasshopper etc.

'Crambuster' Nuff said. King Crab is smexy. Would love to see both Crabs in the game.

The King Crab and Crab are great mechs and I would love to see them in-game. However, I'd rather get a Devastator.

i say: if the King Crab needs some loving, we should thank the crews on the Bering Sea for bringing us the king crab! I will put on the water and melt some butter! nothing like a boiled mech XD

*blows out several of Rejarial Galatan's Heat sinks with my King Crab's Dual AC/20s* there, Boiled OmniMech, Clanboy.

Not my favorite mech although the 2 gauss rifle variant would definately make me consider it. But just to have something that looks so different profile wise makes me want to see it eventually.

I don't know the most about battletech, but I know that the Crab that Mektek added to Mechwarrior 4 was really nice for the game. Mechwarrior 4 wasn't super great... was really sad once I got later models of computers and saw that Mechwarrior 3 wouldn't work on them. So I'd love to see what the Crab and King Crab would be like in game.

By the way, figured that the Grasshopper is nice classic, would like to see that one in MWO at some time as well.

You know, while I've always liked the Crab, I'd never really cared for the King Crab until I saw those two pics, and decided to look up some of the variants. All I have to say is that the 010 one is a beast. Two LB-10X ACs(with 6 tons of ammo), 2 PPCs, and 2 SRM6s(with 2 tons of ammo) and basically maxed out armor. Definitely a nice setup.

and definitely set up to bring the pain at a nice overlap of ranges.
