(from another thread)

Initial thoughts... and I will ask folks to play test this.  It has the ability to be pretty rough to face if played right.  (Christ, if one gets close enough to drop its cargo its a long day at the office)

Points 202
Crew of 3

RC:8  Ldr:12  Vehicle Wounds: 6/3 Mv5 (Lumbering Walker) Armor 25
Impenitrable
Weapon Mount:  SSW-4200 (Mounted)
Transport: Carries 12 Size 2 models (Max of two squads) and are released from side doors.

Available to Cybertronic and Capitol.  Capitol version is modified by below and costs 192 points:

Mounts M-90, 5 wounds and Armor 24 (Cyber sold them a bill of goods on the armor)

BTW - you don't think it has a Bauhaus or even Mishima feel at all?

Also - what about a CC stomp/Squish attack?

And what does "Lumbring Walker" mean in game terms?

Mishima maybe.  But not Bauhaus. 

By Lumbering Walker....  I imply that while the rules do not give restrictions for what should be a slow vehicle, perhaps the player should treat it as such. (ala' AT-AT of Star Wars fame).  Pure fluff reasons... No game affect. :)

  Squish attack would be neat- but like the move walker, not all that easy and I do not believe there is rules for it in the game currently.   ???

Couldn't it just be a CC attack that a model on wait could "dive for cover" to avoid???

I dont' know about that-Bauhaus has the most prolific walker program (i.e. the Viktors and Vulkans).  I can see just about every army using this thing in some form or another.

Perhaps... but with Bauhaus, its small walkers.  Capitol and Imperial tend to go big.  Mishima is kinda a mix with small intermediate; Large would be the next step.

Mishima is all about the big.  In MC they have huge Meka that rival Tranzor Z in redonkulousness.

There has been one of these sitting at my LFGS for years now in the 1/2 price bin so I finally gave in and bought it.  It's smaller in real life than it's pictures look but I'm sure I'll find a use for it somewhere.
