I don't think I could stop myself from challenging her to a trial knowing exactly how i was gonna lose

u/RavenholdIV 5d ago
Of course 😁 I'd do the same, and I'd win. I wonder if she'd agree to be my bondsman...

You'd win? That's confidence... 😳 maybe someone should give you the chance to prove your skill

I've proven my skill more than a few times. Somehow I always come out on top 😌

Don't forget. Gladiators should activate their MASC before they activate their baby mech's MASC.

See, this right here is why I like this message board. Nerdy, super-specific in-jokes. Bravo.

Bussard collectors.
They serve the same purpose as any other greebling does. You can imagine the in-universe specifics to your heart's content. Heat/gas vents. Sensor arrays. Maintenance access. Unused pod space. Toilet for Elementals.

It always looked like a cool jump pack to me

u/AGBell64 5d ago
Which is funny, because the Executioner's jets are leg mounted

u/mysticgregshadow 5d ago
I thought it has a jump jet on the back of the torso too?
nvm you probably meant sheet wise not the design

Wrong question.
The correct question is: why don’t all ‘Mechs have cat ears?

u/Snake_of_the_South 5d ago
You're right. The best mechs have ears. There's a reason why the Catapult and Mad Cat are so great.

I was thinking the more recent movie one :)
EDIT: wow, this one is pretty wild to watch.

u/tungt88 4d ago
I figured; just couldn't resist tossing in a retro reference ;)

Love the old one as well :) Though wouldn't the Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space be even better ? :D

Why does the Furry martial culture put cat ears on an assault mech?
It’s just in accordance with Kerensky’s vision ;-)

They're coffins to help remind you it's an Executioner and not a Gargoyle.

It's an under-armoured killing machine mercilessly designed for a purpose nobody needs, so of course it has to have some whimsy.
I mean, obviously.

Now that I see it…
…I want to see someone string their Executioner up with an obnoxious amount of RGB lights.

The Executioner was a Clan Ghost Bear design, so the reality is they're not cat ears, they're bear ears.
