Question: Why are there 'Mechs in MW2 that are the sam thing but have different names in MW3?

    Having not played mechwarrior 3, I'm guessing that you're referring to the Clan Omni mechs such as the Timberwolf, Mad Dog, Stormcrow etcetera which have all been given names by the "enemy" of the clans such as Mad Cat, Vulture and Ryoken. (Though personally I've always preferred to the Clan names, as the inner sphere designations are both redundant and sound crappy)

You haven't played MW3? *Howls like a Shivan and goes for the kill* But yeah, I like Clan names better, too. Dire Wolf=Daishi, Summoner=Thor, TimberWolf=Vulture, Mad Dog=Vulture WarHammer=Cauldron Born, Jenner=Owens (or rather, an upgrade version to the Jenner), and in MechCommander 2, RifleMan=JagerMech, and so on and so forth. BTW, you still haven't given me the link to HOTU.

Raa: Yeah, well, the way you guys kill grammar it's hard to tell. :doubt:

Btw, you're right on some counts there, but not on others. The Cauldron Born, Owens and Jagermech are NOT different names for the same mech, though they are to some extent different mechs for the same purpose.  That is to say, both the Rifleman and Jagermech do the same role of fire support with long range autocannons and the like. The Owens, I believe is a light Kurita Omni mech (though I could be wrong), and the Cauldron Born is a . . . Jade Falcon Omni?

Some point along the way, the people who produce Robotech (which is the american amalgamation of 3 Japanese cartoons) didn't like FASA using Art from one of the series, Macross even though as I understand it FASA got approval for the art from the Macross people, who knows. Anyway the art for about 15 mechs was pulled for legal purposes, never to be seen again (hence the name unseen). All of which they have since provide new art for (in the Project Phoenix technical readout).

The mechs being, the Locust, Stinger, Wasp, Phoenix Hawk, Shadow Hawk, Wolverine, Ostol, Ostroc, Marauder, Warhammer, Archer, Long Bow, Thunderbolt, Rifleman, Marauder II and Crusader.

As well, the IIC (clan equivelants) were also pulled, notably from the games the Warhammer IIC, Marauder IIC, Phoenix Hawk IIC and also the Jenner IIC which was not one of the legal problems was pulled anyway for some reason.

     If you don't know the Warhammer, I wonder how much of a battletech fan you really are :)

I'm assuming that you're on about the Anubis etc. They aren't in FS2 at all. The only way to get them is to get the FS1 to FS2 port.

The Lucifer etc don't appear in FS2 either. AFAIK [V] put the model in so that FREDders could make missions involving it (which if true was nice of them) :D

     There are no stats or models for them, officially released by [V] anyway. But I'm sure these ships and others are being worked on fo the Terran-Vasudan War Mod, a project whose release I eagerly anticipate.

Cobra, you shouldn't assume everyone else is as n00bish as you. :rolleyes:

Using either smiley is valid.  It depends on the meaning he wanted to convey.

Nah, I think it's been more than a month. And besides, some poss are actually addressed to me, so I feel obliged to answer them. And another thing: merely posting to tell me that is also spam!
