Assault Mech's don't have Jump Jets!" . Yank out the book, point to the little spot that tells you how many jump points you had, see the bemoaning look on their face, then smell "Victor"y as my foot crushed thier Mech's head.

Edit: I guess I'll be "Attuning" in the Caverns when this comes out.

HAHA that whats I do in Multiplayer... I don't play multiplayer anymore tho, cause my friend tainted my name... I follishly let him play and whenever he was close to getting killed he would self destruct...

I tend to dislike Assault Mechs, too big for my liking (with the exception of the Mauler because it's such a cool looking mech

).

Just give me a Bushwacker, Mad Cat or Vulture and I'll be happy

Favorite Mechwarrior mech: Raven. If I were in a Mech Lance, I'd be the guy in the bird-leg Raven with the sensor package doing the scouting

The attuning feature sounds interesting. Can't wait to customize these bad boys.

Potential for different equippables down the road sounds really cool indeed.

It's starting to sound like the invasion of the Clans. My favorite when they first invaded was the MadCat (Timber Wolf). On paper, great mech...in "real" life (Virtual World)....easy target...just aim for the big nose.

I wonder how long after before we get Outfits named Jade Falcon, Clan Wolf, Ghost Bear, Smoke Jaguar, Diamond Shark, The Not-Named Clan (Wolverine), etc.? or....House Stiner, Marik, Liao, Davion, Stiener-Davion and my personal favorite, Kurita.

Flea for light class Uziel for medium Dragon for heavy and Templar for assault.
