Needs an option for Jack of All Trades. Players who like to try out all roles and who can carry out those roles with average efficiency.

Indeed, I do everything. (And the only one I'm not stellar at is- umm.. I guess LRMs now with the ECM... and maybe dedicated scout)

Higher 'agility' brawling poll result is also likely due to fact it sounds smarter and thus more appealing. Might as well ask 'are you an agile intelligent warrior or dumb ox?'

101kph FLAME can be seen as 'agile' but can a medium packing a 250std and pushing 88kph be considered 'faster than the pack'?

Oh, and yeah, I picked Jackie Chan...

John Wayne in my Atlas, although, I go down in a hail of weapons fire at times though.

[Terran123rd]

I guess I'm somewhere between Jackie Chan and John Wayne.

There's no option for my play style...

Flits and Jackie Chan Brawling are essentially the same thing as both involve using superior mobility while employing moderate firepower.

Personally, i enjoy the 'Jackie Chan' brawling, as i have a 295XL Jenner-D(F) with 2 SRM4s (3 tons ammo) as my primary firepower and 4 Slas to conserve ammo with a single JJ for mobility. At the same time, i have:

Cataphract 3D: 340XL - (86.5kph Speed Tweak), 2 MPlas, 2 Mlas and UAC5 (3 tons ammo), 1JJ for quick strikes, flanking and adaptable brawling.

Catapult C1(F): 300XL - 2LPlas, 2 Mlas, 2 SRM6s, 1JJ for heavy fire support and wrecking Catapult-A1's.

Atlas D(F): 325STD - 4 Mlas, 1SRM4, 1 SRM6, AC5, UAC5, 21DHS All-purpose brawler, sniper, Light killer.

In general, i think many people would prefer the Jackie Chan option because ultimately it encompasses the best strategic ideals of MWO - Be faster than, hit harder than and outsmart your enemy.

I fit into the (Stone Cold John Wayne) hybrid category. Initially I like to engage from long range (Twin ER Large) as a Sniper; but when the chips are down and all hell breaks loose, excepting my fate, I will fight to the death at point blank range with the LBX10 Scattershot. (It's always a good day to die upholding the honour of the Inner Sphere)

My choice would be:
iSpy (information warfare, scout) Flits like a butterfly stings like a bee (any superfast mech) Jackie Chan Brawling (Agility over power) John Wayne Brawling (Power over agility) I am a Stone-cold mech (Sniper) My LRMs will blot out Thermal Vision (LRM Boat)

But I can not choose that. I play whatever I feel like at the moment.

I did not vote because I did not see the "Drunken Master" option.

[Adrienne Vorton]

mixture of all options, honestly...depending on the situation...

What about Skirmisher... midway between sniping and brawler... (doesn't always have to be fast)

If you're a slow skirmisher your kinda doing it wrong :/
