Title: Vapor Eagle Pre-Order - (Clan)

The Vapor Eagle pre-order is here...

It seems like you can make this insanely fast for a 55 tonner.
I do not know if PGI will do similar quirks the mech had in canon, but due to its aerodynamic design it could jump 30% longer with the same amount of JJs than others and could change direction mid flight (aka criss cross fields on the tabletop), no idea how PGI could implement this, but they got the Laser Heatsinks of the Night Gyr working so there is hope...
I think they did a fantastic job with the artwork.

Yep, fantastic art work. I'm with you there. Even gave it a short thought although it's a filthy clan mech :mrgreen:

Agreed, this version of the Vapor Eagle has many simularities to the MWDA Vapor Eagle (I prefer Goshawk) and is very aerodynamic.

It is a second line mech wich means it can get quit fast. But at the end Tirant is not convinced that this Mech will be such a master of the battlefields.
