"expands his knowledge" by venturing onto the high frontier.
At the conclusion of the last round, we were down to eight Finalists - Rottenlead had mysteriously vanished, and Paintingploddy was voted out.
The readers of TMP also voted to determine this round's theme:
Nose Art
The 'mech must have nose art, similar to WWII bombers.
What will our Finalists make of this theme and their available models...?
