I am really into battletech, and lately ive been on a bit of a battletech craze, and felt inspired to sketch up some sort of battletech-esque mech (might even use the battletech rules for building your own mechs to give this thing rules -sweats-). I am no way near as talented as the many mech artists ive seen drawing battletech stuff, but i am still reasonably proud over myself for this sketch. Havent given it a name, but it would probably, in battletech terms, be a 35-ton light omni-mech, or a medium omni-mech, probably sporting srms, some type of auto cannon and a few lasers, although probably at the expense of speed and/or maybe armor, which at its weight class obviously would be a rather risky thing to do. I invite fans of Battletech (or mechs in general) to come up with your own sugestions and ideas for this mechs name and/or capabilities/specifications, i’d love to hear peoples thoughts. hope you all enjoy! “And be safe mech-fans!”

Perhaps “Balisong”?

jolleboi

I had to legit look up what “Balisong” ment and i have been enlightened X’D

And here I thought it was always called a switchblade knife lol X’D shows what I know! But that’s an interesting name proposition, it gives me the impression of something small and unassuming, but fancy, which in the end turns out to actually have a sharp edge hidden inside it.

I picked it because I believe my first idea was “Dagger,” but I thought that might already be a canon ‘mech design, so I shifted around in the namespace and found a substitute.

I went ahead and dusted off the old rule book for the battletech - tech manual and found my old editable record sheet for mechs, and decided to give it some rules (i just hope i didnt miss-remember any of the rules lol) Here’s some stats I made, i first tried to make a 35-ton mech but it became difficult to mount the bare minimum i wanted, so I changed it to 45-tons. I might try again some other time to make a light variant. BAL-1S PRIME “BALISONG” - 45-TON MEDIUM - CLAN OMNIMECH [INNER SPHERE NAME: KITTY CAT/KIT CAT] [IS NAME notes: its name was given due to the mech’s arguably visual similarity to a much smaller looking MAD CAT/TIMBERWOLF] MOVEMENT & ENGINE ENGINE: C.270 XL-FUSION

MP WALKING: 6 (64,8 Km/h) RUNNING: 9 (97,2 Km/h) JUMPING: n/a

Neat.

Did you have an idea in mind what Clan(s) it was produced by and what role it fills?

jolleboi

Well, i didnt have any particular clan in mind, however it is loosely based on the timberwolf/mad cat, so one idea i had is that rival clans tried implementing some of the timberwolf’s features into their mech design, or clan wolf tried employing skills they learned from developing the timberwolf in making the balisong. The proposed role of the balisong is as a harrasser ment to support and make use of the heavy and assault mechs. Its weaponry is weak at range but it can run fairly fast, and up close it can deal some serious damage before darting out. Even if it doesnt do alot of damage in an attack run, it deals enough that it cant easily be ignored when it comes around the flank. The idea is to either distract the enemy mechs with the balisong, making them turn to face the balisong and leaving them exposed to a much heavier mech, or to appear as less of a threat than it is so enemy pilots ignore it, allowing it to come up in the rear and tear out the rear armor of its targets. The early Prime configuration doesnt mount an ECM, but later configurations would in order to help the Balisong sneak up behind targets. at the expense of firepower some variants would also use jump jets to make outflanking enemies and hit and run tactics just that extra bit easier.
