Guest Rommel22 Posted October 18, 2000 Share Posted October 18, 2000 Yep A 75+ ton madcat, that will ruin the allied advance, I am sure the entire 8th air force has a chance of knocking it out. Maybe not if it's carrying guided rockets, either radar or heatsink or just laser guided. Good luck with a .... well anything to knock out. What century is this is, I believe 32nd. 32nd century composite armor, good luck with those tungsten's. ha!!! How about stepping on soldiers, nah, waste of time, step on tanks with this monster, it's about, what 15+ meters tall.

Guest Rommel22 Posted October 18, 2000 Share Posted October 18, 2000 I doubt anyone during wwII would be able to take out these beasts since they were made out of special 32nd century composite armor. Even in the 32nd century those thing were hard to kill and they had 32nd century tech in wepoans and everything alse. Good luck with sachel charges! ------------------ From the Das Reich book as said by a German soldier "when the Russians reached us, we opened fire, the first wave had no weapons.

GriffinCheng+ Posted October 19, 2000 Share Posted October 19, 2000 Cool! I wish I had one for QB. It is better than those hover tanks (or fighters can't fly high) from BattleZone. LOL! About that KO Timberwolf (?), I believe a mech with both taken is more like the case. I think Battletech borrows a lot of mech designs from various Japanese Anime and transform them. IMO, they sound like "walking tanks" to me. In Hong Kong, we have a privillege of strong exposure to Japanese robot anime, and almost all of them are transalted. We find most of them are much more exciting than American ones. Example is Mobile Suit Gundam seies. A lot of boys grow along with this franchise, just like Star Wars in US.

Guest barrold713 Posted October 19, 2000 Share Posted October 19, 2000 I heard from some guy at a bar who said a friend of his looked over the shoulder of someone reading a book about this armoured unit and he swears that the optics were inferior and the main weapons could not penetrate half-tracks. I demand BTS recode to correct these errors. Either that or he was saying his beer was flat..irregardless I want a patch released tomorrow or I am going on the Mother of All Flamefests. Don't try and change my mind because I am correct. ------------------ "Democracy is two wolves and a lamb discussing what to have for lunch.

Guest Pillar Posted October 20, 2000 Share Posted October 20, 2000 I think it was the same as the other Mechwarrior series, which I'm not that crazy about. But I don't see how it became more arcadish, other than the graphics were pumped up. Anyway, I downloaded the demo for the sole purpose of doing this picture, with the underlying premise that I would learn more about Photoshop.
