Sorry, couldn't help it. One more Massive machine. Nothing fancy, just something to throw into the meatgrinder of war and see how many it can take out before it goes. Nickenamed Rolling Thunder
Rolling Thunder
Mark 'Fang' Stonkin is taking an extended hiatus was the official line given to the public, but others knew what was going on. After three failed attempts from Word of Blake agents, he was taking time off to take care of some...unfinished business. That WoB was trying to infiltrate, or using non descript terrorist attakcs on GZT locations indicated they did not yet know what Mark had taken off Terra. If they did, it would have been a tactical nuclear strike on the main facilities, instead of another dead spy at the bottom of the river. He had put the Blakists off for long enough. Refusing their business, finding little ways here and there to annoy them, even publicly speaking out against them after the massacre of the Dragoons. Mark had great respect for Jamie Wolf and the Wolves. Now, it was time to take matters into his own hands. So here he was, onboard the ValHalla, a customized Overlord dropship, with a regiment of mechs, including several of the experimental Salvo assault mechs. How those crazies foudn out aboutthe plans and commisioned the Uriel Fang didn't know. Several Ground Zero security personel died during that escapade, including Mark's second in command and best friend. But he was determined the Uriel would not be used anymore if he could help it. All the Thunderbolt fighters had been converted to use all energy weapons, as he did not know how long this would take, or if he would even be back. He was sure that the WoB forces would be VERY suprised to see the lance of Arc Angel LAMs in combat.
In an attempt to keep up appearances, Fang had left behind several new designs,and modifications to old ones for the design team and techs to work on. One in particular was dubbed Rolling Thunder, in honor of this clandestine operation.
RollingThunder
The RollingThunder is meant to be a faster than average assault which can go toe to toe with other more dangerous machines.Mark chose a 100 ton chassis based on the Grand Titan frames he still had in stock. He mounted an XL engine to help it keep pace,a nd move to the front as quickly as possible. The mechs weaponry is fearsome to behold in action. the right arm Gauss rifle coupled with the left arm Particle cannon give the mech that 'Reach out and touch someone' feel. This is followed up with the left arm's Large Pulse Laser and the four Martel Medium lasers in the right torso. The STREAK6 missle rack is a nice follow up to exploit the holes made by the murderous laser barrage. The SRM ammunition is stored in CASE, and the guas ammo is in an ammo 'clip' attached to the rigth arm. The RollingThunder only carries 16 and a half tons of standard armor on its endosteel frame, and seems woefully inadequate to handle all its ehat issues with just 14 double heatsinks. Careful heat managment is needed to keep from shutting down. all in all though, the Rolling thunder is a potent machine of war, and should make any pilot proud.

I like it, except. I really dont like the addition of the LG pulse Laser. Moslty because they are garbage. I would, either replace both the Pulse and the PPC with a pair of LG lasers and heatsinks, OR a pair of PPC's. And I am not sure I like the XL. But for this it seems Ok. For assaults I perfer full armorThis is close but again acceptable.
The more I look at it the more I think a pair of LG lasers, heatsinks, and armor would be a bit better. Keeps the heat down a bit and toughens up the armor a bit. _________________ Stinger If it's "creepy" to use the Internet, military satellites, and robot aircraft to find a house full of gorgeous young models so I can drop in on them unexpected, then FINE, I'm "creepy".

Has promise. I like the mix of Lvl 1 and 2 weapons. Not cool and has the SSRM6, the needles of doom after Mr. Gauss hammers them.
AWAD- Keep this up, improvement in work
