I like Kamea Arano's Atlas II AS7-D-HT, which as far as we know is an AC/20-armed one-off in a forgotten Castle Brian on the opposite end of the Inner Sphere from the Exodus
@AlphaAurora the Atlas III is what got me into Battletech. I pulled it from a Mechwarrior Dark Ages Salvage Box equivalent, it was my first Mini ever.
Someone can use both Atlas II, and Atlas III to be laying down some suppressing fire while the Standard Atlas goes around and force an enemy out of cover that would be terrifying tactic if used correctly
If I was in the Battletech universe I would want an Atlas ll. I’d have it reconfigured for long range support. I’ve always liked playing at long ranges with mechs
The rotary AC5 configuration seems up your alley then. RAC, Dual clan er large lasers, and an LRM20. You got a good balance of armor stripping sand blasting and raw alpha potential. Combine that with the increased speed for the defensive boost and positioning, you've got a compelling package for medium-long range.
Thank Blake this mech got an updated mini! The metal version looks great, but it’s still metal, and therefore colossally fragile. Nice to see it in plastic. - I have no particular loyalty to this mech vs the normal Atlas or other designs, but it does look cool.
I like how the Atlas-II has its own distinct identity from the first Atlas, rather than being a replacement design. At least in their earlier variants, the Atlas-II seems to be more of an assault command mech that can fill a lot of roles with its varied long-range armaments yet lacks a knockout-blow. This contrasts heavily to the first Atlas, which was a battering ram or bodyguard mech that can also be a command mech while carrying the biggest gun around. It’s a bit of a shame that these differences in battlefield roles decrease as the timeline progresses and more variants are introduced.
I mean, with how the succession wars treated specialized mechs in general it’s not a surprise that the specialized assault command mech became less differentiated from its bully brother
Very nice, and I can't wait to get this box as well. I did enjoy how you balanced the appeal and history of both the major figureheads that piloted the Atlas II. You gave the history of Nikolas as his ugly history we all know it for, but you gave a quote from the perspective of a person that loved him, and then did almost the opposite for Devlin Stone giving a quote from the average person torn from his home and abandoned by his leader for this new upstart that thinks he knows better while giving the history of a pretty good (at least for BattleTech) leader. Whether that shine continues remains to be seen, though I suspect, and hope, the Tucker Harwell story may bring closure to some of the Dark Ages unanswered questions.
Certainly eager for the new plastic. Painted some old plastic minis, horrible. So definitely eager for new stuff. Also eager for Clan Star Adder stuff. And content on the Wars of Reaving.
Hmm let's hope to see some of these Atlas II heroes as legendary mechs now in MWO since we're starting to see IS mechs with clan tech, now the Blackhawk, etc.
@@BigRed40TECH Possibly, I think it would sell as a standalone, but if not, there could easily at least be custom geometry for the head and possible some other parts of the mech as we see on the Otomo Collection and a few others stand alone mechs; Grand Dragon, etc. Never say never!
Are there better assault mechs? Probably. Are there cheaper heavy mechs that can do something similar? Also likely. Does anything compare to the sheer badassery of the skull-faced horror of an Atlas grinning at you through shattered cockpit and broken armour as it breaks through your lines? I don't think so.
Yo, just wanted to say I'm a B.C. bro too! Hope the con was great and the post-con recovery was smooth. Great video! The Atlas 2 never being a 2C always felt really weird to me... Until I saw just how terrifying Unity was.
Not only that, but lore shows us that autocannons are classed by damage output paired with approximate ranges; projectile size, count, and rate of fire vary quite a bit even within those classes.
@@Sideshow819i have been told that AC classifications are only for gameplay purposes and every autocannon is different between caliber, mechanism, manufacturer and so on and so forth, kinda like real life guns. A scar and an m4 have the same caliber but not the same mechanism. Then again I've also been told that an ac/5 is a 120mm and an ac/20 is a battleship naval gun so I'm just kinda confused at this point
Hopefully ill get to grind a few under the feet of my dragoon and rampage Also that particular Phoenix Hawk variant has weak head armor as one of my pilots learned...
IMO the Atlas II's autocannon should have been made a prototype ultra-10 rather than an LB type. That multibarreled weapon just doesn't look like a battlemech shotgun to me.
I wonder if the original intent of it was not to resemble a gatling gun where the barrel spins, but pay homage to weapons like the Nock volley gun from the 1800s where all the barrels fire at once creating a shotgun like spread, hence the LB.
Since every Atlas II pilot left with the Exodus, I'm really surprised the Clans never came up with a IIC or Omni variant. I guess we have Nicholas Kerensky's later variant.
@@BigRed40TECH Yeah, the concept of a dedicated Commander's Mech shouldnt make much sense with Zellbrigen rules too. I really wish the clans lost. It kind of makes sense that their way of war had no focus on anything beyond raw firepower, but I guess the setting decided they wanted to validate the Clan way of war and life, after having initially repudiated it at Tukayidd.
Excellent stuff, BigRed!👍 I knew very little about the II. I ended up painting my son’s Atlas III (not II) in a skeletal scheme like Phantom years back. At the time I’d seen a lot of Atlas models with their heads painted like skulls, maybe I’d seen Devlin’s too. I knew little about BT lore then, just thought it’d be cool. Of course it got comments of “it looks like Devlin Stone’s”…which drove me to Sarna and got me deeper into the lore😄 BTW, what’s that mech in the art at around 1hr 9mins with the fist-of-missiles??
I'm surprised you managed to wring an hour and change out of the Atlas II. I didn't think there was that much history around this, and that it had a much smaller place in history. This feels like a much more natural and logical evolution of the Atlas than the Atlas 3... but that also goes to show why the Atlas 2 isn't as memorable or distinct as its own thing as the 3. It also doesn't hurt that the art for the 3 isn't misleading, unlike the 2, which looks like it has an UAC or RAC instead of an LBX AC... despite only one listed config sporting a RAC, and that one came after the Atlas 3 had one in its base version.
Really well done Red. Love the artwork. Your script for this was better than the toddler squibble of the supposed script for episodes 1-4 of the Fallout show 😂 EDIT:- I want my time back for suffering through those episodes.
If only Nicholas, in his overconfidence, did not inexplicably remove two points of head armor from Unity, he would not have been so thoroughly charred by that ER Large Laser. /j
According to Legends, the primary resource I used for this video: "Nicholas joined his mother’s resistance cell as a youth, but keenly felt the absence of his father during those hard years."
This is exactly why I think the Atlas II particularly the AS7-DK-H is better gunned than the Atlas III. I mean what can those dinky medium x-pulse lasers do when the latter runs out of ammo? Not to mention it can't even fire all 4 because it only has a pitiful 10 double heatsinks. I mean what self respecting assault mech only has 10 double heatsinks? Every assault mech usually has at least 14 or more. It's as if the equipment tonnage of the III is lesser than its predecessors. Why even bother piloting an Atlas III when the original "King of the Monsters" is already good as it is?
Idk why the Atlas 2 has ER large lasers because stock large lasers are 1: Cheaper 2: Cooler 3: Lighter 4: Have almost the same range as the LBX-10 My personal Atlas 2 in Mercs 5 also has regular medium lasers instead of pulse lasers just to keep it a little colder.
So question, when you say that the atlas was the only 100 tonner in the first techincal readout, wasn't the King Crab also there? I thought it was an old design too. Well Lore-wise too, its from around the same period.

The best assault rig needs protective forces to cover it from anklebiters that can overwhelm it by sheer numbers.
I killed one of these with a heavily modified Davion Shadowhawk and it’s the proudest moment of my boardgaming carrier.
I wonder if Nicholas had that ECM system turned on and whether that contributed to Jorgensen identifying him as a hostile.
Nicholas is a Fursuit-wearing, sociopathic hostile to existence.
