That kind of design has too many limits tbh

shouldnt they have done something more like this?

Drastically reduces the load they can bear and their mobility and degrees of elevation

Ew

and yes I know that was a knight but still

But no

just a large gun with a couple support weaons, not a warlord with a giant gun

Its not even a warlord

the legs are the same

It's a new class

Yeah because they're legs

its essentially the same hull

Arguably

I know its a new class but its based on the same chassis as the Warlord

I mean the Honda accord and the Honda civic used to be the same chassis but not the same car

the warlord chassis doesnt look very good with a single gun sticking out of the middle

Er no, that's far more like the Reaver's legs

With how this first iteration currently is, I am fairly certain this a command platform instead of a combat platform like the warlords are

So the design is going to be different and allow for different things

The Warlord's are digitigrade

thats fair

but istn it the same size as the warlord?

I think its bigger mass wise

Regarding the shoulders, underslung hard mounts would be able to support far more weight

Wait reaver or this new one?

I mean more as in hight

Oh well without the gun then most likely yes

A traditional shoulder puts the weight load perpendicular to the axis of motion, which is bad

But gives a higher range of movement

Yes

And that's the point of these guns. High range of movement for "Oh fuck" moments

This is a command/flagship kind of titan IMHO

Hm

So if it actually needs to use those guns its gonna need to move them fairly fast and at likely a more expansive range of movement than say a more heavy platform

Because if something gets close enough to where it needs those guns

Yeah in that regard it makes sense

Yeah, that's my perspective on it

As a support titan less so

You may be right

But I'm just giving my point of view based on its design
