    Most of the homeworld games have it. Or at least some.

    I'll say it, if they hadn't called it a hunchback, that is still a badass design for a new mech.

    to be fair I always kinda liked the MWT mechs. They were certainly NOT the originals but I thought they had some pretty good changes and designs. To be fair again however most of those designs would have made much better new mechs in other games then in a BT game. c'est la vie

    It comes from the Dark age mentality, but there are quite a few Dark Age era mechs that have started to grow on me....

    It more reminds me of the Age of War Koschei, despite not really looking like that mech either.

    Some of the dark age mechs weren't that bad.

    I need to qualify that statement.... the POST-Wizkids era mechs have "started to grow on me". ;)

    The Lament is super-sexy... like the little brother of the Devastator.

    Yeah, I think I see it standing next to the Marauder, Warhammer, and Locust minis.

    Got my stuff today, the Liao stuff is sweet.

    The jacket is a lot more nice then I thought it would be, need to get all the Irish penates off from the manufacturing process.

    Is that an srm 6 and an lrm 5 or 10? I only question because (unless i am counting wrong) i only see 7 lrm tubes. Still pretty looking.

    Going from the concept art, it's supposed to be a LRM 10 launcher, with SRM 6

    Yes, I'm not sure how that'll be resolved in-game. Might still need some model tweaks, or they just don't give a fuck and will launch 10

    Well, it's going to be fairly small scale for the majority of time. It's not like MWO were you can watch the missiles come out all the time. You'd have to actually zoom in to see how it's launching.
