i went with lightray, it seemed like a good idea with final reckoning on the horizon
"Warriors, not war machines, are the backbone of the Hell's Horses. While others worship the BattleMech as the ultimate weapon, the men and women of this Clan see even this awesome piece of technology as the tool it is. We have held to this philosophy since the days of our first Khan, who knew that the value of the common soldier far outstripped the brute force of the BattleMech. It is one reason our Clan possesses fewer mechs than most, and has led many to underestimate our fierceness and courage. Our survival against all challengers when others have fallen proves the folly of such arrogance, and testifies to the wisdom of our founders."

C'mon Piranha.... and Salamander BA.

I have Light Ray's out my ears (two actually and if I was feeling weird I could stick them in my ears and damage my hearing, so that might not be that good... but anways, back to what I was talking about. Which was of course, "I hate Sauerkraut!")

Yellow Jackets are good too... I was actually shocked that it was archived. One of the best Vtols ever... I mean, a Vtol based Gauss Rifle? That's fun! But I own one.

I wish the lightray didn't look so stiff. I'm not one for heavy modification so I went for the yellow jacket.

I feel like it would do better if the poll was clear that we were talking about the Venom.  Not that I'm concerned, I've got all I need.

because there is both the venom and a spider in the archives (although there is no pic for the spider, so dunno which mold that is)

The archived Spider is the DA spider with the partial wing.  I thought I remembered this coming up the first time the Spider wound up on the poll and someone said it was the Venom.  I could be wrong though.

Cast my lot for the Yellowjacket.
We hear that there are tumults and riots in Rome, and that voices are raised concerning the army and the quality of our soldiers. Make haste to reassure us that you love and support us as we love and support you, for if we find that we have left our bones to bleach in these sands in vain, then beware the fury of the legions.

Different than a chopper like the Warrior, which has a wire stem and a metal base.  The Yellow Jacket has a translucent plastic base and stem.

Mine was an online purchase, maybe I got an older one... weird.

I personally prefer the metal bases with wire over plastic...
