This fortnight, we look at the
Crusader, another 'Mech hailing back to
Battledroids. I don't have much to say about it. I never understood it as a 'Mech when I started playing and I haven't used it much since. If you want to know more about this 'Mech, read its
'Mech of the Week article, written by marauder648.
(In retrospect, lining up all of the Unseen 'Mechs at once may have been a bad idea. "Unseen to Reseen to Classic" gets a little old.)
The
Crusader has had only a few sculpts, like the
Phoenix Hawk:
- The original metal sculpt from Ral Partha (20-834), also available in resin.
- The plastic sculpt released by FASA in the BattleTech Third Edition boxed set, based on the Ral Partha sculpt.
- The CRD-5K sculpt, the only Project Phoenix variant (20-217).
- The CRD-8L sculpt, from the Technical Readout: 3085 variant (20-5171).
- And, most recently, the Classic sculpt released by CGL.
If you have any of these painted, please share pictures. We'd love to see them!
Our next two fortnights will wrap up the original Unseen:
