Awesome!!! Its good to SW getting a mech with a decent sweet spot.

It would not stand a chance against that HL Longbow.

0" minimum, 360 degree arc, 24 defense... it certainly gets mad points in the coolness category. If only it didn't start with the 20 defense, and 5 clicks puts it past its sweet spot.

With a 24 defense you find a way to reach that sweet spot. :p

The lads and ladettes at Games Dev obviously went on a drinking binge when someone snuck this thru - these are some seriously powerful stats to cause opponents to stop and think "erk!".

Kodiak - weakness? Gets annoyed by Arnis screaming "RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY FAST! RUN AWAY!!! :confused:

FREEBIRTH SCUM!!!!!! YOU WILL ALL FALL BEFORE THE KOIDAK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Let your arnis's and DF Donars hit a 24 MUHUHAHAHAHAHA i love that mech i will use it like Homer Simpson uses the word "DOH!" :) THANK YOU WK THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wow very nice mech, But isint Bekker a......*thinks* Ghost bear blood name?

Nice mech.

As for getting pushed past its sweet spot, with the way the repair markers are layed out you could repair back up to your sweet spot.

However it would take some time and likely fail a few times since the defense is still a bit high for a repair vehicle.

3 targets 360 degrees and 14 inches.

How the heck do you sneak up on something like that?

This set just keeps getting better and better.

Wait, on the same click that it has 11 Attack and 3 damage Rapid Strike on its Secondary attack, it also has 6 damage on its Primary attack...

That means the Rapid Strike SE on that click is totally useless. Why would anyone use the Rapid Strike and take one extra heat when they could just use their Primary damage stats and do the same amount of damage all at once, with no extra heat? Nice going, WizKids, you've done it again. : / ... : )

Otherwise: Now THAT is an assault 'Mech!

The thing that makes me happiest about it, as a Steel Wolves assault 'Mech, is that, like Kriya Wolf, it starts with a 9 attack--UNLIKE Seka Ward and Inova Wolf, who both start with 8 attacks.

Use this 'Mech in a 450 point game with the new rules, with an infantry screen against charge (say a bunch of Steel Wolves Fenrirs : ) : Sweet.

ummm does anyone else think that this mech is dirt cheap for its effectiveness?

Seriously, its less then 260 points... for an assault mech with 24 defense and 11 attack at its sweet spot?

Im kinda of scared the point value calculator at Wizkids was busted or something.

Hum ... decent at best. Which is more than can be said about almost all other SW Mechs. But nothing to write home about. Scores high on the coolness factor, not really on the playability one.

Best thing is that now there is a precedent for 24 defense Mechs.

Umm, maybe if the 'mech had Evade? :rolleyes:

I think that its the best assault mech so far. WOOHOO KOIDAK KOIDAK KOIDAK THANK YOU WK THANK YOU *Grabs nearest WK rep and Showers them in Hand shakes and Roses!* wow.....serious..... Nice mech Scairy first unit with a solid 24 DEF lol Imagine what a HL one would be >_>

and/or reactive armor.

I think their point value calculator is a dart board and a pitcher of beer.

Its about time Wolf mechs got a sweet spot worth talking about. This guy blows the Madcat 2s out of the water.

You have stole my post dude :)
It was my first thought, so checked the heat dial (maybe TSM?) ... nope.
It's Just a great piece with a little flaw, I can play with it :)
