New MAWs for MW Online

Those of you who have been following my tread on the forum will know we've decide to focus our efforts on developing MW Online.

One of the key factors in making a good online game is variety and you guys said we need more MAWs. To make sure we really have alot of new MAWs and enemies, we'll be adding MAWs from MWTC:mobile, MWA2(currently on hold), and some unrelased MAWs from MW1.

Here's a preview of MAWs taken from MWTC:mobile:

Mobile Adaptive Weapons (MAWs)

"Strider" - Assault / Anti-personnel Type
A fast, agile MAW equipped with dual gattling cannons for quick hit and run attacks.



"Rhino" - Defender Type
The Rhino embodies the typical defender type MAW; heavy frontal armor and armed with a heavy cannon loaded with armor piercing rounds which would punch right through lightly armored MAWs. The Rhino also has a MAW hammer to deal with melee attackers.



"Longbow" - Artillery Type
In large battles, mobile artillery like the Longbow are of great strategic value. The entire MAW is designed so it can brace from the recoil of firing its "firestorm" main gun. However this means that the Longbow is completely open to melee attacks with no means to retailate.




Conventional Weapon Platforms

"Goliath" Medium Tank
The backbone of the Imperial army. While not as manuverable as MAWs or as versatile in terms of armament, their main cannon packs a powerful punch.



"Impaler" Missle Tank
Often seen backing up the frontline tanks, "Impalers" provide range support fire.


We'll also be adding a few new MAWs specially for MW Online, so there'll be plenty of different MAWs for you to choose from when MW Online goes live in December!

I noticed that the MAWs in MW:Ep1 usually appear they're standing up straight, while the three MAWs you show here seem to be hunched over.

No matter... they're all well-made. :D

Best of luck on getting Tactics Command to sell!

Mecha that stand up straight are too much like your standard manga and anime mechs. We're trying to emphasis their bulk with the new designs.

So pretty much MAW = Vheicle on legs? At least in your opinion.

Wait, I thought that MAW stood for Mobile Adaptive Weapon.

My bad, I fixed it.

Ah, I thought you changed the initialization. Mobile Armored Weapon sounded made a little more sense, although I'm sure you guys are going to put some more on the "Adaptive" section later on.
