I won't go into specific details because I'm at college right now on my free time.

This 'mod' or 'tc' is not in active production for CNC3 because it may not be suitable for my mod. However it shows promise :D . This mod is completely unique. It has no relationship to the CNC universe at all. It is not based on any IP out there, it is completely developed by me and a select few friends. Only a few of you in the community know about this. Especially you Chris/Yayo and Hunter. This is no CNC expansion or remake or a bring over. GDI and Nod don't exist in this storyline and this storyline is not a Modern Warfare mod. This is a unique naturalistic Sci-Fi setting.

Yeah, mechs are just cool depending on how you view them. For me, I love the animations.

No offense to you but this is quite uncomfortable that only one person is replying. So I'll post this unit I finished that is not obscured.

This is what it is probably going to look like ingame, complete with normal maps.

Now that is a cool Mech.

I'd just like to say, that in the pic posted before this one, the legs look to flimsy for a mech.

Now that mech looks like it'll do some damage, but will the legs be strong enough for the recoil those guns will have?

WOAH,that one is awesome^^

If i see it right, the cannons are mounted on some kind of rails to compensate the massive recoil?

On closer inspection I think your right Chief.

Still I can imagine the destructive power that mech can dish out *insert evil smiley here* .

Indeed, see the air coolers on the rear part of the cannons? Those are stationary while the entire barrel is recoiled. For your information, this mech is the most powerful of the Medium class with high ratings in armor, speed, and power. The only weakness is aircraft, but that can easily be fixed with help from others.... Oh, think of this: These mechs, they aren't rare ...

That'd be great though I would have to prepare lots of drawings. Given that this is an original universe everything has to be made from scratch really. But this project has been going on for years so I have some content to say the least.

:wow: When did you make that? And you DO know that spider legs are like hell to animate do you? Looks good and original but nobody used a spider mech in my story...

Well one design I've had for awhile now is a mech that uses a tank chassis to move if that's ok, it's armed with two twin mounted cannons of sort on the left and right side of the body and like on thew shoulder's are missile launchers.

That's the basic of it, I'll let your creativeness work out the rest, if it's ok.

I see what you mean. I see lots of those in ChromeHounds pictures but I'm not sure how well they fit here. After all, they still use regular tanks. Anyways, new update:

May I introduce:

The CI-120-MAHAW Dark Star IV
(Clousen Industries 120 Ton Mechanized Armored Heavy Assault Walker)

The Dark Star is a tremendously huge 120 ton assault mech with seemingly unparalleled power in the Heavy Assault class. With 3 chain guns and 2 heavy railguns not much can withstand the power of the weapons on this mech. But that is just the start. Not even mechs can stop this rampaging monster. Any mech that is below a medium class can be rammed by the massive feet of this mech.

On average this mech is probably at least 50%-100% taller than the medium class
