Battletech Lore, Clint Medium Battlemech

"We need to upgrade the Clint-IIC-II. What do we call it?" "How about the Clint-IIC-II-C2?" "...We need better naming conventions."

Ask the Bears we are great name givers.

It occurs to me the fitting meta of battletech is diametrically opposed to that of eve online. Battletech: a weapon for all ranges Eve: maneuver to an optimal range and unleash hell

[@Peter_Morris]

Even though I think there’s a good case to be made that many of those early Battlemechs are quite ugly, I think they’ve got a certain charm. The designs are unique, not being borrowed from Macross or some other anime (and thus avoiding becoming unseen). But then again, I like the updated artwork as it looks chunkier and beefy enough to actually take a hit.

[@HellsingXtreamest]

I'm a fan of the Archer mech. The origanal design was unique and the updated "endo" version I think looks really nice (my favorate being the ARC-8M version) it's not something you really see in other mech based fiction. So I get what you mean.

[@starsiegeplayer]

@@HellsingXtreamest But the original Archer was a Macross destroid?

[@MrPikaGammer]

@@HellsingXtreamest The Archer, Long Bow, Warhammer, Rifleman, Phoenix Hawk, Stinger, Wasp, Marauder, Marauder IIC and I forgot the name of the other one are all from Macross, the Battlemaster, Shadow Hawk and Griffin are all from Dougram

[@traviscochran6280]

The first mech I ever run. It got pounded hard by a Rifleman and Dervish. It went down fast!

/sadface.

[@HellsingXtreamest]

Solid video. Please do one on the Archer mech.

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

I'll add it to a poll roster.

[@HellsingXtreamest]

Thank you. Hopefully it gets a video. The Archer is a solid workhorse mech but I don't see it get much love. Most people I know tend to overlook it.

[@whatsthisdoinghere]

Ah, my favourite 10 to 15 minutes of KZbin back for another week. Thanks GDN.

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

Kind of you to say.

[@alphathemage4238]

Thank you for this great video

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

You're welcome :)

[@keianna5106]

yay you chose my clint!

[@monkeghthirtyfour2845]

‘Do you feel lucky?’

[@justincarlozmaxino1100]

punk?

[@philips.5563]

Have you taken six crits, or only five?

[@mr6johnclark]

With NON-Standard parts and a techicians nightmare? You have to feel lucky when you climb in!

[@semperatis]

It's biggest drawback is it's lack of armour in stock form,only 4.5 tons.

[@shadekerensky3691]

Yus! My boi the Clint gets some love! nwn

[@lexington476]

How about a kore video on the other two common 40 tonners? The Vulcan and the Hermes II.

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

I'll add them to possible future topics.

[@WolfHreda]

Damn, what was the name of that Mechwarrior browser game? I remember playing it a couple times. Then when I went back to look for it, it had shut down.

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

Afraid I don't know. Between Mechwarrior Online and Battletech 2018, there haven't been many "new" battletech games.

[@WolfHreda]

@@GrimDarkNarrator Figured it out. It was called Mechwarrior Tactics. It was fun for a bit, but the company producing it messed up. Play to win, awfully loot-boxy like gameplay. Killed it quick.

[@WolfHreda]

I mention it because that green pic you have of the Clint is from MWT.

[@poodlescone9700]

The Clint: The Mitsubishi Mirage of the Mech world. A beginner machine that everyone thinks is a piece of shit.

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

/sadface.

[@arrgylerawrgyle3784]

Still better than a panther.

[@marciharp631]

Hey nice video

[@GrimDarkNarrator]

Thanks!

[@tannerrennat7786]

Not saying it's a forgettable mech, but I forgot about it.

[@hku99]

Different 😊

[@homelessEh]

good stuff as always borat like narrator.. when i die if i have to talk to death him self imma shit my self if it sounds like you lol good show tho seriously.

[@starsiegeplayer]

Pretty decent mech. A bit fragile though.

[@thegreatbamboozler4837]

Gotta keep the Clint moving to survive....

[@WolfHreda]

Natalia Porter and then Caroline Fisher. Thank you again, MechWarrior Dark Age, for ruining a perfectly good setting.
