: I've noticed that for years. I also noticed that the arm weapons on the Mad Cat Prime are supposed to be PPCs, but are ER Large Lasers in the TRO. I actually made an alt config of the Cat with the PPCs and LRM-15s. It tends to be a bit short on short-range weapons, however. [[User:ClanWolverine101|ClanWolverine101]] 15:33, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

:: The Timber Wolf Prime art actually reflects what's referred to as the "Mark 1" omnis. At least nine of the 3050 Clan Omnimechs were previewed in a magazine prior to the full reveal of the Clans. All of them except the Warhawk had XL engines, ferro-fibrous armor, and endo steel chassis. The story I got from an old roommate, the guy who introduced me to the table top game WAYYYY back in college, was that the Mark 1 omnis were deemed too powerful and nerfed to the versions we know and love today. He still had the magazine that they appeared in to boot. If you hunt around Google long enough you can find them. The Timber Wolf mounts two ER Large Lasers, four ER Medium Lasers, two LRM-15s w/ Artemis IV FCS, and four machine guns. --[[User:Pa Weasley|Pa Weasley]] 04:22, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

Just to give you an example, the Executioner Prime has the same movement profile, a ton more armor, Gauss Rifle, two ER PPCs and a targeting computer. --[[User:Pa Weasley|Pa Weasley]] 03:24, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
  
 
::: Is there any sourcing on that magazine? Was it BattleTechnology or something like that? I remember seeing a website with that information, but I'd love to look at a real semi-canon source on it. Maybe the apocryphal "Mark Ones" deserve their own page? [[User:Citizen Erased|Citizen Erased]] 05:15, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
