rule of cool, if you can't put it on the table it's because they're just not metal enough. [rockon]

Lol! Thanks guys, glad it was so well recieved. O0

Don't have HMP or SSW available right now so I will give you an idea. Now for an assault he is severely undergunned...until he gets right next to you, which he can very easily. >:D

100 tons (duh!) ;D
4/6/4 (5/8/4 with TSM active)
LF Engine
Max armor with 7 tons modular armor (RA/LA/RT/CT/LT/RL/LL)
Armored shoulder, hip actuators, engines and gyro

Weapons:
Mace- RA
2 Med Lasers (er...they may be pulse or VSP, don't remember)- RA/LA
3 Heavy Flamers- RT(R), LT(R), CT
Clantech ER PPC- RT
4 Mpods- 2 RT, 2 LT
Spikes- HD, RA/LA

There may be additional equipment but this is what I remember off the top of my head. I'll load the HMP file tonight....unless someone wants to plug this in. ;) I used him in a game against my gf before con...he was an absolute terror! >:D

Gunz, while I love the states, you do know it is impossible to put a mace on any 'mech more then 80 tons, right? At 80 tons, it takes up 8 crits, thus filling up the whole arm..any more then that, and it starts taking up more crits then are free(unless there was a change in the MASSIVE TacOps erata that is)

Death to all but METAL! [skull] Lol, glad you guys like it! O0

Justin, I believe this is the 2nd or 3rd time I have approached you to work with me in an 'official' capacity. 1 was when you designed my Atlas Tattoo (which is STILL getting looks BTW) for GenCon (thats right guys, I got a tattoo specifically for GenCon last year) and this was the second. I seem to remember another but can't recall exactly what it was. Justin, you are my go-to guy. O0

May have been a Hatchet.... :P

Quote from: ShadowRaven on 23 August 2012, 22:21:32

not to criticize the mod hat, but how official is the design, in regards to it being a part of a cannon stable and such?

HMP wise, it's totally legal. As for canon, no...not yet at least. >:D That's the beauty of Solaris, pretty much anything goes as long as you can build a tourney legal design. There are tons of un-affiliated warriors outside of the major stables.

I should have realized something so bat-crap insane and over the top would be yours!!!

Lol, yep! I aimed to please. Listened to a lot of Manowar, Blind Guardian and Eluviete when working on this. ;D

40K is the mid 90's Goth scene to Battletech being the mid 80's Thrash/Speed metal scene. IMHO. >:D

I posted my version of Gunz's Atlas, but it does not conform to his description as it is slower and has no Mace.

clansittingducks · « **Reply #44 on:** 24 August 2012, 19:41:43 »

[skull] This pleases me greatly :D And I do have the stats for the first metal head, fairly close but has more weapons to fire off in close combat. Gunz I am impressed as hell! Now to get that Atlas and my Atlas together for a game [rockon]

Pity its a mix of clan tech tho

That is the best flames and highlighting from the flames I've seen yet on a mini

You know what would be an awesome tutorial for CamoSpecs: doing lighting effects from AC's, Lasers, Flamers,
etc...
