Title: MWO - Marauder II Announced
Post by: Cyc on 08 January 2019, 18:27:51

Yes we have MW5 Pre-order thread, this is more about the Marauder II as a MWO 'Mech.

It's the Charger and Hatamato - reuse existing 'Mech to bootstrap a new MWO 'Mech. Not sure if its adding anything new, save the 4HP and those missile hardpoints.

I like the cockpit plating. Almost looks like an up-armoring kit for a regular Marauder.

The original did as well.

They centerlined the gun and gave it a googly eye.

Damn, I'd come back to the game for that.

I wonder how well she will fair.  I'm getting the stock entry-level Marauder because of MW5.  Having the Marauder IIC (i don't got one), i'd think it be tough act to follow given how Clan tech makes everything better. (until they start allowing for more advanced technology)

Quirks are out and aside from structure quirks they are relatively limited and token weapon focused.
