Thanks Speck. My search fu is not very good this evening. What are the generic missile launchers? Are they the ones from the Thor II?

Yes, the launcher looks like the one from the Thor II, except it can take different plates.

Huh! Real make-a-mech parts! Haven't seen anything like that in a while. CooL!
Epitaph on an Army of Mercenaries

These, in the day when heaven was falling,      Their shoulders held the sky suspended;
The hour when earth's foundations fled,         They stood, and earth's foundations stay;
Followed their mercenary calling,               What God abandoned, these defended,
And took their wages, and are dead.             And saved the sum of things for pay.

Yeah, remember when they used to sell the blue blisters of just 'Mech arms? Those were very useful.
"Well, I do, Marcus, and rule number one of the MAC has always been that the man with the plan leads. If we get shot up, I'm the first one to get my ticket punched. There are no flags in the MAC."
"And there never will be," Barton said, nodding his head in agreement.

"You guys are facing a freaking Shadow Division! These guys have strict policies against playing fair!"

"I don’t care. Kill them. I planned the defense so I know it will work. If they claim otherwise, they’re cowards. Any step back is a betrayal of me, and saying they don’t have enough men is just an excuse for incompetence and disloyalty. Tell the Krypteia to do it if you’re too soft but get it done." -Emperor Stefan Ukris Amaris I

Generic Missile Launchers

Thanx for posting that, I've been considering using those, but hadn't seen them in any practical view yet.

Speck, just a suggestion, but is there any way of sticking a penny or something into various pic? Just something to show scale? Not so much of a problem with the 'Mechs, but things like the Generic Missile Launchers I have no idea how big they are.

Just a thought.  :)

The generic missile launchers are the Thor II's launcher with different front plates. Does that help you on scale?

It does, thanks! Point being, though, that relative scale is hard to tell over the interwebby thing.  :)
