Sorry for this bit of necro-ing but i have a suggestion that could ad to this thread.

Recently i saw a documentary on ww2's eastern front and in there was a fragment of the Katyusha rocket system. This fragment reminded me of this post and i thought how cool it would be if this ability had the sound the Katyusha made. The sound alone scared the living daylights out of the German soldiers.

As they say in Russia: DA!!!! Rocketeer definitely needs something to replace it's turret. The only one that's somewhat useful is the vanguard's.

I'd have to say #3, #1 looks to much like the old Blood Kite from Mechwarrior, and #2 screams Dire Wolf which is pretty much the poster child for the whole Mechwarrior franchise.

How about we just keep the C-Class arms and make the rocket's shoot out from them like...



P.S. I really want a new special. Turret mode just sucks.

Make that the turret mode  while turreted, missiles randomly fire around forwards and suppressing the enemy like this thing was meant to do.  Maybe have it not affect heat but reduce damage reduction from the front

Or better yet, just randomly shoot missiles and have them autotarget everyone without turreting

I was thinking something along the same lines; for a brief moment, you could turn a piece of land into a hellscape of exploding rockets, dust, and pieces of mech.

There'd be some loud noise as the missiles get ready (or just after they launch), then the hellfire goes into full-on gatling mode with extreme inaccuracy (and reduce the mech's turning speed), effectively clearing out a small area allowing your team to come in and engage from a favorable position. The mech would then overheat, unless the ability was canceled early.
