Catapult Configurations
« on: January 15, 2008, 10:54:08 PM »
Ok, folks, here's where the fun begins. I'd like to know if anyone has any custom configurations they've done with the Catapult mech, and how they configured it.

  As a BT player whose tenure dates back to the origins of the game, I pretty much reconfigured every mech in the game at one time or another.  I, however, don't have a catapult design just laying around.  I can redesign one for you if you just tell me a little bit about what your looking for, or what your planning to use it for.  Also, a time frame for the mech would be helpful as it would determine what weapons and such were available to be used.

Well, it was more of a question seeking to find out if anyone had any pet configurations for that specific mech so I can design and test the flexibility of our weapons customization code.

in mw4 i had one with every possible missile slot filled with LRM10
had 2 small pulse lasers for defense

also had a variant with 2 arrowIV and 3 med lasers

i think i had to strip almost everything to get the weapons with 2 lots of extra ammo each

didnt really use the cpult much , but if you ever want any Timber wolf configs

Catapult was one of my favourite mechs in MW4...standard loadout was 4CLRM15s and an ERLL for back up when the ears were inevitably blown off,worked like a dream  ;D

4 ClanStreakSRM 6 (1 extra ton of ammo each)
4 ERML
JJs

Was my MW4:Mercs build for the arena, quite a beast in those short-ranged battles :>

EDIT:
Dusted off my copy of Mercs and realized... WTF was I on when I wrote this? o_O
Corrected...

Catapultam habeo. Nisi C-cartulae omnem mihi datus, ad caput tuum saxum immane mittam. ... :D

The Dracs apparently agreed with you. See the CPLT-K2.
