Warhammers are very good and the black widow is one of the best heroes so yes, you chose well.

For emphasis: the 7S is the least of the Warhammers and with the 5 large lasers metamechs build I have been rocking 500-700 damage matches easily.

if i had 5 more mc i'd buy the st ives blue only because it's fun to paint

and i made the right choice with the black widow. had some fun playing a few rounds but i might wait until the rescale update to start playing regularly again.

Hey guys, I've been out of the loop for some time but looking to get back into things. I checked out WOL website on goonfleet and it seems there is no activity for quite some time.

How do I find goons to shoot robits?

They're both amazing mechs, either choice would have been correct.

I say that as someone with both of them. Really, they're loving great.

It's a Clan Heavy Omnimech. That's about all we know about it. But from the art renders, it looks like it's going to be a mighty fat mech with huge rear end side torsos.

I'd say go for it, but keep in mind you might be spending 20 bucks simply for the 6.5 million c-bills, weapon modules, and some extra dangly-bits instead of the mech itself.

The enemy of my enemy is my enemy.
15 bucks gets you enough MC to buy 10 mech bays.
Is an extra 5 bucks for three mechs and all of the assorted goodies the pre-order provides (modules are mostly meh, though Advanced Zoom is alright) worth it over an additional 7 mech bays?

Don't factor in the add-ons because they push the answer to that question firmly towards 'no.'

Omnimech means im stuck with the 300xl, right?
That kinda cancels the deal already.

Finally Basic'd my Vindicators. Instantly Mastered the 1AA. I uh... don't know why I chose the 1X as my third. But it was painful.

Oxide, Black Widow, a few others. But those two are really good.

Curious though, which hero mech did you get a refund for?

Sparky if you like Griffins and laser boating. Boars Head if you like the atlas and spending money. Misery if you like stalkers.
