Re: MECH-QUEST
Thus far it would seem that HEAVY - ASSAULT is the choice of the dakka lovers out there, but there are about 36 hours left of voting left to go.
With this in mind, I am going to leave some spoilers before I leave for a couple of days. If your brain cannot handle the awesome within, then do not click what I leave below.

Re: MECH-QUEST
MECH-QUEST
WEIGHT SELECTION - HEAVY
SPECIALISATION - ASSAULT
So, lets break it down for you.
The Heavy Class is the slowest of the group, but allows more Armour and Weapons on its mighty chassis - to put it in basic terms for you all.
HEAVY
Step down 1 die on speed.
25% bonus to Armour.
Step up 1 die on all defence based rolls.
Allows 1 Extra Heavy Weapon (from standard of two on a Medium, and only one for a Light).
Assault is more combat and weapon oriented and has a number of other bonuses.
ASSAULT
Automatically equipped with two small machine guns (In the chest, treated as 2x pistols for the sake of combat).
25% bonus to range
Step up 1 die on all attack based rolls.
Allows 1 Extra Heavy Weapon (regardless of other class choices)
Seeing as I had this pre-prepared for when I got back to my machine, the next choice selection is going to be a little while longer. For next - we move onto - WEAPONS.

Re: MECH-QUEST
Well, ladies and gentlemen - we move onto the next of four voting sessions for MECH-QUEST.
We begin voting for weapons.
Each vote will be 24 hours, and due to the sheer amount of choice - we will have to vote for each system individually.
So first of all, we are voting for the RIGHT ARM WEAPON, everyone gets one vote each - so fire away our choice of dakka!
(From Left to Right)
PISTOL
A Standard pistol, fast firing and accurate.
SUB-MACHINE GUN
Firing Pistol rounds at high speeds, its a single hand bullet hose.
RIFLE
The standard mecha-scale Rifle unit - an equal all-rounder
SNIPER RIFLE
Exchanging speed for range and fire power, this single shot sniper rifle is a trusty aid to Mecha-pilots of all classes.
ROCKET LAUNCHER
A multi-shot rocket launcher with long range and firepower, but no target lock function.
GRENADE LAUNCHER
A medium range grenade launcher, it arcs its shots to fire over cover.
PLASMA RIFLE
A long range plasma rifle, devastating to all targets, but slow firing and prone to overheating.
LASER RIFLE
An energy weapon that has the capabilities of both RIFLE and SNIPER RIFLE, at the sacrifice of stopping power.
UNDERSLUNG RAILGUN
A horrifying weapon capable of one shotting enemy mecha, but has next to no ammunition.
UNDERSLUNG MINIGUN
Lock and load, the minigun is the weapon of choice for those whom the words "target rich environment" and "spray and pray" often go in the same sentence.
UNDERSLUNG BOLT CANNON
The bolt cannon is a double barrelled cannon that fires short range high-explosive bolts at the enemy, which then explode inside the target for maximum damage.
UNDERSLUNG FLAMETHROWER
Exactly what it says on the tin.
UNDERSLUNG MISSILE LAUNCHER
Launches multiple missiles with homing warheads, ensuring no enemy can escape.
UNDERSLUNG HARPOON CANNON
A harpoon cannon that can impale foes and then drag them towards you with its high tensile tether.
UNDERSLUNG POWER DRILL
A high-impact heat-infused power drill designed to shatter enemy Mecha.
UNDERSLUNG ORANGE TRANSPARENT SLASHER
A pair of twin OTC's mounted on a high torque drive to slash enemies into a bloody pulp.
POWER SWORD
A sword with a mono-molecular edge to slice through enemies with ease.
POWER AXE
Akin to the sword, but in Axe form.
POWER HAMMER
Built to smash and shatter rather than slash or slice. Enemies have nightmares about being underneath this thing,
POWER HALBERD
A Halberd akin to the axe and sword, part Axe - part Spear.
OTC
I don't think this needs much of an explanation, do you?

Definitely harpoon cannon. Any other choice is stupid.

Re: MECH-QUEST
I already tossed my vote for the grenade launcher, but harpoon cannon right hand / melee weapon left hand could lead to some awesome combat situations.

Power drill, minigun, and plasma gun look the best. But I love me some railguns.

It was tough to choose between the flamethrower, the harpoon launcher, the bolt cannon and the minigun, but I managed to do it.

Re: MECH-QUEST
Thinking back to my time as an Armored Core fan (albeit way past the series's prime) the prime choice for any 'Assault' oriented machine was to pair up a 'fast firing' weapon with a 'high alpha' weapon, no idea how that'd work here, but for now I'm voting grenade launcher. Melee would be a stupid choice, we're much too slow, and at the same time, we're too slow to kite with a long range weapon.

Re: MECH-QUEST
MECH-QUEST
RIGHT ARM WEAPON SELECTION
UNDERSLUNG MINIGUN SELECTED
Whelp, the first weapon of choice for our Mecha is the Minigun, fast firing and devastating at medium to close range, it has a damage rating of 11-60 points of damage (1d6 + 1d10) and can split its damage between 1 to 5 targets per attack. Spray and pray is the order of the day it would seem.
With this in mind, the voting is now re-opened for the LEFT ARM WEAPON. The choices are exactly the same, one vote per person and 24 hours to place your votes.
So, lets see what you all choose next eh?
