Hehe, all this mech stuff made me go back and replay through Mechassault 2: Lonewolf. :D

Looks much like an owens. :)

You should make the full version of the giant boss in the end of that game. :D

Owens is 35 tons.If he was shaping it after her, then i would say about 35 tons, unless he was going for a IIC or a MK 2, in which case i would say 40 or 45.   But wirth the advent of Strider (uninspired design that it is) i wouldn't make it a 40 tonner.

The legs look like the mech'd be ~60 tons, to me.

Finish the model and give me a general weight class, and I can cook up legal BattleTech stats for it in about fifteen minutes...

Though reverse-joint legs look almost unstable.  <<;  I'd think a more humanoid design would fare better, but you're talking to someone who prefers Gundam and Dragonar and L-Gaim and the like to Battletech or Mechwarrior.

I'm a Battlemaster kind of guy.  circa 3025, but if we want to go 3050, I'll take Natasha Kerenski's Warhammer IIC.  By the way, there is an online table top version of btech if anyone is interested.  Quite well done actually.

Megamek, I think.

It's been awhile since I checked on it, but MechWar 3D is still coming along, too...

I'm not totally sure. The old MechWar was the original computerized BattleTech game, and has the best AI of any of the ones I've played. That game is beyond ancient now.

MechWar3D...http://www.battletechmodproductions.com/mechwar3d/

They haven't updated since Christmas, and it would be a real shame if the project was down the tubes, as it looked like it was actually going somewhere.
