I like the weapon loadout. It has a great ability to pummel an enemy before finishing them off with the AC20. There isn't any range you can be safe from this mech. Definatley not up close. Where the extra flamers add insult to injury. Its almost as insulting as being taken down by an Mg.



I actually mounted the flamers as a terror weapon. I mostly see this 'mech as being used to put down rebellions in the Jade Falcon occupation zone. One of these and a point of elementals is probably enough to pacify a rebellious town in most cases. Use the flamers to burn the town to the ground, as an example to other discontents.

Nice, I like peoples fluff, it really adds character to the mechs, like the Spider, we play a house rule that it can change direction in flight (as it says in fluff). It really adds some flair to games, i hated the damn thing for a start, when learning to play, when the only tactics you use are brawling. As soon as i discovered its worth i loved it.

As for the customs, more fluff and roles should be added, i find that part the most fun, designing a mech and giving it a role and history or vice-versa. Some of those mechs seem like 5 minute jobs. Most of my ones are several models and variants after the first. I play them and make corrections. I find it great fun, sometimes the best on paper are not so good in the game.

BTW, I love the Timber Wolf G, if i could change my rating i would. Its one of my favorite custom heavies good job,

No problem, i give a mech a good rating on its fluff, i always take it into account, i think it shows effort, even if its a few moments of typing gibberish. At least it means you've put some thought into it.
The Wolf itself is a nice mech, i play alot of peoples customs. Some are really good, others are really bad. At least i give myself a reason to back up what i say when rating a design. Because i play most of them before hand.

By the way, this Wolfy defeated a pair of Whitworths and a Penetrator, it also damaged an Awesome. Not bad for a clanner...
