That is another option Bradshaw I can do when I get home from work.

I could also turn the Atlas around to face the sun with the Mad Cat appearing on the other side also slightly enlarging both.

The horizon line could also metaphorically represent the Truce Line of Tukayyid with the Clans having to stay above it till 3067

What do you guys better No Mechs or Atlas and Timber Wolf silhouettes? To be honest I think the latest one with the Mechs is the best one although the plain BattleTech Salient Horizon is good. What do you think? I can turn this into a poll question.

I think the mechs complicate what is otherwise a simple and effective design.

I would go for the first one too (and you could also drop the Battletech thing).

Yes or Black and Grey perhaps if you want somewhat of a contrast between Horizon and Lettering

I have to say I like it as is for the logo right now. The Black and Yellow look good to especially when applied to our TRO covers where the Black Mech do get lost some what. So while there are a few folks who do like the Mech silhouettes I am gonna go with the clear majority and ditch them. That being said in some cases you will see it appear in a black and white fashion.
