Are you talking about the mech for August, or the mech after the Phoenix mechs arrive?
If it's the mech for August, that's a negative. It's most likely going to be the Orion and then the Flea in September. They're already announced and fit perfectly in the two months between now and the Phoenix arrival.
If it's the mech after the Phoenix mechs, unless the devs drop two mechs per month, it is more likely the devs will start revealing the first round of the initial 16 Clan mechs in 2014.
Then again there was that bit about the Wolverine. So who knows?


EDIT: Well the Kintaro has now been officially announced. Anything is up for grabs now.

The mech for august, but thats just speculation. This mech was just found in the game files.

[flea], blackjack, quickdraw, victor,
[light mech], [kintaro], [orion], [assault mech]

looks like we are missing 2 light mechs in these cycles, so i'm curious why they would release the medium first.
anyway all this is just in the game files. nothing concrete right now.

I assume they are still having trouble implementing MASC and have run out of meaningful lights to bother with until they do.

It's a shame, but I kind of like the idea of a 55 ton mech that looks like a monkey.

Should the Kintaro arrive early, we'll have something built around the currently useless NARC. Which means something like, in a few months, NARC will become horrifically overpowered for something that it was never intended to do, and will eventually receive a weak counter to it.

Or more likely, it'll just be another Trenchbucket used by the occasional Cent pilot who is feeling eccentric.

I'd probably take out MASC to put in the Command Console.

I will be very upset if we don't get a new light, or at least a new hero light, but a monkey Mech I would approve of.
