    That looks.... weird ... as if they crushed the head into its chest.

    Lol good catch. That head is truly massive now I look at it again. That CT area must be huge as it will include most of that.

    Oh god those quirks are horrible on an immobile chassis that doesn't have actuators.....

    This mech is going to be a min/maxer's wet dream. Similar to the Kodiak IMO. Sort of how the Warhammer is a smaller Mauler in terms of performance. Cannot wait to get my hands on it. Here are some initial builds I put on paper months ago:

    4x UAC5, 2x ERML

    3x UAC10, 2x ERML

    2x UAC10, 4x SRM6+A

    2x Gauss, 4x ERML

    Many other combinations that were not possible before on a Clan Heavy.

    Yeah the quirks are totally unmissable due to the set of 8 restrictions. PGI did the Viper well as there were good advantages to keep all 8 components in many cases - in total contrast the Night Gyr quirks are so weak that theres no relative advantage to keep them versus upgrading hardpoints.

    Currently I am completely underwhelmed by this mech. Besides the logical mini-Kodiak, the only viable build I've able to come up with in an 8 piece setting is this pressure cooker (dibbs called ;) ):



    So far the builds I come up with are either too hot or undertonned,... frustrating!

    Even this ludacrous missile boat is undertonned:

    This looks like it could work, based on how I did with a similar EBJ build

    I prefer the dual UAC10s, personally. Plus, it gives you a TC1.

    See now this isn't bad.... nothing I would buy this chassis over, but would fit my playstyle.

    Having some success with this build, not quite to the 1000+ club, but close.
