    I deliberately omitted a "they all have their uses" option because while it is entirely true, it's also a cop out. If you absolutely had to say one weight class was better than the others, which would you pick?

    Brawlers, snipers, flankers, jumpers. You name it, the heavies have it.

    I suppose the problem is the fact that there are 2 game types. Lights can win a game by cap in either, but it is much harder in Assault.

    I do like the Heavies. I remember when people discovered you could run 2 gauss on a k2. My table was flipped that day, and I ran out a purchased a k2 with my hard ground c-bils as soon as I could.

    Heavies are the best by far. For me, at least.


    Catapults and Cataphracts cinch it for me, but then look at your Jagers as well. The Dragons can out medium a medium (I think) and the jury is still out on the Quickdraw. The Orion will also be divine.


    Heavies. No doubt about it. :)

    Easily heavies, they can do well against every class and has very few weaknesses.
