Title: Totem Mechs
Post by: (SMD)MadCow on 19 March 2014, 16:17:57

What exactly is and how do you define what a Totem Mech is?

Hi,

A totem 'Mech is a 'Mech designed to represent--in some visual way--the look and/or "spirit" of a Clan's totem animal. Clan Hell's Horses' Balius, and Clan Ghost Bear's Kodiak, are examples of this.

Thanks,

Are there any Inner Spere Totem mechs or plans to add more in general?

Hi,

Not really, since the Inner Sphere factions do not have spirit animals per se (the Combine's dragon fetish notwithstanding). As to whether more are coming, I cannot say now. Anything's possible, really.

Thanks,
