Yeah, it probably is more complicated to make it an "epic" arrival.

Anyhow, I have equally epic planning for the Sister Ray:

Basically: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7rqhAcP8lw

This will take some fun Sparkle Magic and a lot of frames of animation on my part, but the visual I have in my head is awesome.
I'm also thinking that anything the beam hits could be covered in particles that have a delayed explosion, like capnbubs' laser rifle for the crobos.

Carbon plating? Not a problem at all, in CC you can coat it with unobtainium-invinciblium alloy, and paint it Dummy orange, blackened at the feet maybe.

And for the burst open, I'd go for A. It's a good idea, easier to do, and looks cool.

Yeah, I guess.
Just need to make a cool design and ♥♥♥♥.

I can just imagine him jump-jetting down like a mecha

Do you want to make it have lines appear and go into the barrel as it charges, a la sucking lines mecha anime wave motion gun?

Something like that, or a recreation of the charge effect shown in the video.

could build a Dummy Pod for it (harvest the dummy rocket, take off feet..)

here's an idea on how it could enter. (sorry if it's too big)

HAHAHA oh how I love that GIF.

That's a big explosion from such a little fist...
*strokes chin*
How could I implement this in an interesting fashion...?

As this walker of yours gets destroyed, make a dummy brainbot jump out

...
It IS the brainbot.
If you choose to use it as such, if not then it's just a hulk.

walker with a brainbotty inside?

It won't work that way I think, as when the behemoth dies, you lose (since it's a brain, and even if a brain unit jumps out of it, it will still count as a failure.

Theres a little witty proccess called CODING!Make it like in AAL mod,whe craft dies the pilot is ejected in small pod(instead the brain is evcauated in space by a small rocket.!

There's also a little thing called knowing what you're talking about.

When a brain unit dies, you lose. So, if your behemoth is a brain unit, when it dies, you lose.

Now if you had said to make it like mail's vehicles and put a brain unit somewhere outside the map that popped out on destruction of the Behemoth, then it might've worked. Oh, and the Behemoth couldn't be a brain unit anymore, if you were to do it that way.

Make a function for the behemot like EJECT COMMAND??That is possible,you press eject,BRAIN DONT DIE,it escapes the scrapped body,if it is SCRAPPPEd of course!
