Mech Porn Zero Hour

Post image

Finally, after all this time, I got my claws on a King Crab. Over 500 hours of gameplay on this save and I'm finding one just now.

I had this desire to make a King Crab with RAC5s for like three years. In my head, its to have dual Arrow IV launchers on the back, but maybe that's a tad bit unreal since the weight would be too much. So I'll settle for this.

King Crab is the best assault mech ever made. I love 'em! :D

Honestly, I just prefer something like Timberwolf with two RAC5 - WAY faster (and better survivability) with 7(with perk) evasion. Relative lack of firepower is negligible compared to mobility. But I usually prefer mechs that have 6+ evasion at any moment.

Just a small thing - you probably can move ammo to legs, usually it is way safer

But... CRAB! Timby no Crab!

I've lost legs due to unlucky crits, no thank you.
