Oh man that sweet sweet Marauder IIC, I got two of these stars just for it.

That is a TERRIFYING amount of firepower!

That Warhammer IIC. *Italian finger smooch thing *

Warhammer IIC is straight art. Nice to see Stone Rhino with correct barrels, and the supernova looks great. Marauder IIC isn't quite my style, but I like it for what it is. Hunchie seems somewhat uninspired, but it was such a derpy design to begin with I'm not sure what more could be done. But dat Warhammer IIC... Dead sexy.

Prices are the same for all Star's, and to be honest, the Star comes in at under 17k BV, which is lower than I would've thought.

Truth be told I'm on the side that doesn't care for BV and instead will continue to play with tonnage instead. I've also decided on a tonnage limit for my planned lances/stars of 300tons per. My opponents would be expected to follow this as well. What this does is forces more variety in mechs and prevents fielding of uber lances/stars composed solely of assault mechs/tanks. There will be no "pulling a Steiner" with me. And clan players will REALLY need to think about what they want as they have a 5th mech to consider.

Tonnage works great as long as you're both same tech level. When I play clan Clan vs Clan it's usually tonnage. Obviously this doesn't work for IS vs Clan unless each side has different tonnage though.

Sometimes... BV should give closer matches, but there are a lot of mechs that don't deserve their BV (Hellbringer, Timber Wolf, Dire Wolf have almost the same BV for Prime, which is crazy), and it doesn't account for IS having more mechs, which helps a lot. If you can get BV close, and use Elementals to get about the same number of units, it should be pretty close.

It should also be noted that my IS machines will not be stock. Unless game rules demand mine are all customized/upgraded to my specs which while admittedly still very much of inside the box thinking are improved, I think at least, over stock 3025/3050 machines.

My favorite Clan Star assortment of the Kickstarter by far. I can't wait to see what the Rec Guide variant of the Hunchback will be like.

Marauder IIC is sexy af :)

I love this whole star, but that Marauder IIC is perfect in every way. Honestly, for both this and the standard MAD-3R I'm not sure how you managed to change every single detail on each design, but still capture the perfect Marauder [IIC] shape and look. I'm glad you did!

Main silhouette goes a very long way. You could change things even more drastically, so long as the overall silhouette is close it can work. From there it's all about keeping the general spirit of each area on the mech and knowing how to identify small parts that are iconic/memorable. Sometimes I'll change a main or mid level shape a lot (like a whole arm, or a block on an arm) but then replicate a surface detail (like a seam or vent) onto it, and that's how to build recognition from the opposite end of the spectrum.
