TW and UOW or whatever just seem dumb. We have enough classes without them, and frankly I don't reckon even GHW will get built much, let alone anything higher.

why are we now changing existing weight class names around instead of just making the one new one at 800 kg?

Ogreweight at 800 UHW is anything over. Cruiser weight has always been unnecessary.
im just waiting for meganerdbomb to come along and kick things into gear.

UHW at 800 kg may be lame but it suits the name progression, if not the weight progression.

i'm just saying if ironforge is half stock (which is the word of 123) then

AW = 72,5 so 75 for simplicity
BW = 87,5 so 90 for simplicity <= we can get rid of this one or say AW is 50 and BW is 80 or something...
LW = 125
MW = 200
CW = 300 <= we can get rid of this one cuz it's not as necessary with weights being divided by two
HW = 400
SHW = 600
??? = 800
??? = 1200
UHW = 2500
GHW = 5000

But I believe 2500 and 5000 kg are a bit useless in ironforge, so I moved UHW at 800 and GHW at 1200, even if it doesn't keep the proportions.

UOW is a retard tier name. Ogreweight is a Playzooki tier name. Titanweight isn't bad, but it should really be higher than UHW.

what ideas I have for the new names :

Ironforge Heavyweight (IHW)
Ironforge Superheavyweight (ISHW)

or

Megaheavyweight (MHW)
Kiloheavyweight... no that's a silly one.

Overheavyweight (OHW) for 800 kg ?

Or simply call it 800 kg Ironforge and 1200 kg Ironforge. (800 IF or 1200 IF).

These have already been defined by 123 as 70kg and 90kg in the opening screen/credits so I'd say they stay where they are to avoid confusion.


In my opinion we don't need the extra 2 weightclasses, we have enough as it is that will hardly ever get built (as I said last time).

AW 70, BW 90, LW 125, MW 200, HW 400, SHW 600, UHW 800, GHW 1200. Or that's what I think. I don't think we should add more, just change definitions if needed.

Honestly I doubt anything over 800 would be competitive in Ironforge because of Havok. It's bad enough at HW tier. And UHW battle would probably crash quite often.
