Here's another one from Harri Kallio, the Ontos. Another vee that was previewed at KerenskyCon.

I guess it's cheap on the cbills but they really found a way to fit 50-65ton mech firepower into a 95ton assault tank haha. At least it looks very cool doing it.

How do you guys employ these? As a city fighter scatter shot version of a Demolisher?

It's pretty much an ambush predator. Otherwise it's light armor and slow speed will keep those mediums from ever getting into range.

Wow! Love it! The Ontos is favorite of the early vehicles.

Just started playing Alpha Strike after about 15 years of not playing any Battletech, very excited about doing some combined arms with these new vehicles.

Hide in the City, or broken terrain, maybe launch your LRMs so the enemy might only think it's a Striker or some other Light LRM support, then ruin the day of anything they send to look for you!

i like the deep periphery version. Replace a bunch of lasers with RL20s

I like the look of the hull, but the way the missile launcher looks hanging out to the side of the turret just looks a bit awkward to me for purposes of reloading it. Maybe if it was mounted vertically along the side of the turret instead.

I gave sharp pleasured inhale as I saw this

Hell yeah! We have enough mechs give me more combat vehicles and vtol/aerospace fighters

Demolisher cracks the shell, ontos cracks the nuts inside.

A lance of two Demolishers, an Ontos, and a Sturmfeuer as a defensive unit that can hold just about any position.

I always liked the Ontos! The first metal one I tried to build I dropped on set of lasers on the carpeted floor and never found it again!

I am reminded of an advertisement for one of the Borderlands games where a guy spent a few extra seconds espousing the awesomeness of “laser shotguns”
