An unconventional weapon choice for our Skirmisher mech includes a single flamethrower, Possibly Mounted in the Forearm for ease of aiming . Flamethrowers are light, at .5 for the mini we saw before. I don't think flamethrowers are a viable SOLO weapon, But for the purposes, A flamethrowers...

For a platform built for speed and tracking targets at high velocities, mounting the gun to the arm seems like a better idea. Arms have better traversal, better tracking and come with the benefit of being able to point at something off center. As is, Getting to much into it until we see more...

both of those are were my mind goes, but mainly the locust because it is were my mind goes for simplicity in speed. Design goals in my mind go as follows A: SPEEEEEED B: Jumping? Dexterity at speed, have legs might as well be able to hop to further make shooting it hard, straight lines are for...

I DO not think the warthog is able to fill the skimisher role in any worthwhile capacity without such extreme reworks as to be better off making a new mech. The amazons requests are not hard to acomadate, but I think that the warthog is not a skirmisher platform. Scraping of the warthog design...

Hmm Your right, Still makes me feel More confident voting for 1 major 1 minor So you would rather try to make a product that will damage our reputation? Trying to make a Jovian shadow Niche warthog completely ignore all the strengths of the platform and maximizes its weakness. It was Built for...

... Why are we trying to pivot the warthog into the jovian shadow? We picked Reputation remember? Butchering our own Product to make a half assed attempt to fill a completely different niche from what the warthog is is horrible for our reputation, and runs the risk of taring our own premier...

[X] [Plan] - Fleeting Shadow - Micro -[X] [Major] - Project Jovian Shadow (Difficulty: Medium) -[X] [Minor] - Engine Research (-1 Funding) This maintains 9 Funding to bring the Jovian Shadow to life. 9 Should be enough to make a very competitive product All the plans for fleeting shadow have...

In all honesty, I think that the warthog is the worst possible base for a Void mech unless you plan to use it as a turret.. in which case just use a turret. Quadrupedal stance designed for carrying a heavy load under gravity, Limited agility, Limited dexterity and a body plan not designed in any...

The problem becomes the diffrence between applied knowledge and theoretical, sure we might developed better "Organs", But without knowing how to best apply those organs, we still run into problems. The real world has shown over and over that you can have the most innovative new shiny thing, but...

That's fair, But what worries me is that taking that break will also decrease our design teams experience in comparison to our competitors . A variant would keep them working, But it's nothing new, It's not really something that would increase our knowledge pool. It's the exact same reason I...

I think that, If we are doing a Major project, At most we should spend 2 funding on minor projects, More then that and the chance for the Major project to actually be worth doing takes a nose dive, especially after the fact we had to build this factory in the first place. With that in mind, I...

So it DOES has jumpjets, Yah those thors were fucked. This one, For certain in my mind. Like I have said, A high speed Bipedal is my preference, Because of my desire to widen our experience base. We don't even know if bipedal Mechs in this world Lends its mech style towards Gundam, AC Or...

Proprietary tech Baaaby. Atlantean is doing the US thing of holding all that good shit close to it's chest, and export models probably have it stripped out and replaced with more regular guns. Whether or not this works out when the rest of the world is funding your RnD to buy your weaponry is...

If you need filler Names for whatever, feel free!
