The King Crab, yes. Do you have confirmation for the (non-King) Crab?

There is no crab, only king. No idea. Probably will eventually...

Warhammer: Will never happen.

-Why did you include the unseen mechs? Do you want a lawsuit to drag on the development of this game? It still feels like it's a beta. Let the game mature more.

[ManDaisy]

you need to update this list badly.

Couldn't MWO plausibly create a Warhammer with a visual appearance "loosely based" on the tabletop version, but with the magic of artistic license and how the artists notably take a unique path on creating each mech for MWO, make it look different enough to not run into any kind of legal issues?


(same for other "unseen" mechs, of course)


reedit: seems like I'm not the first to this idea, carry on

Are you sure that adding "unseen" mechs to this list is ok?... AFAIK They are called "unseen" for some reason

[MechWarrior679696]

I'd like a Rifleman on the very off chance that we get to see the RFL-6X and RFL-7X, or a Hero mech with a specialization for plasma rifles or LB10-Xs or somesuch, but the tragedy is that it is now an Unseen...

Well, failing that, the Hammerhands would be an awesome response to the Timber Wolf. Not only because it's in the same weight class and has a somewhat similar profile, but because in order to get enough variants in they'd have to seriously consider a lot of the advanced tech and special modules fitted to it. Also, the HMH-6E; an IS mech with jump jets, matching ballistic points, rotary cannons, missile points and ECM, and the tonnage to fit it all with a well-tuned build? Shut up and take my money!

Ah. I would really like to see the Hollander. I've only played MW 4 before. But remember that the Holannder was a crazy little mech with a big gun which looked awesome and wacky at the same time

The Mauler was another favorite of mine. A mech with focus on missiles and autocannons, it was a beast. Would love to see fights between Maulers and Jagers since they both are cannon heavy and well, just awesome.

Black Knight looked very cool, like a bigger more knightly and heroic version of commando. Also it could pack one helluva punch!

Others I would like to see are the Bushwacker and the Crab (FRR neeeds it =)

A mech that we'll probably never see in-game that I would love to death is the Raptor II. But there's too much tech we don't have at the moment. (Not to mention the year is way off)




Also the Sagittaire:
Mmmmmmmmmm

Only being able to choose 3 from this list is a tragedy. The only unseen from the list I didn't play was the Crusader but I love them all. And I've seen some truly awesome redesigns for unseen that keep the original feel of the mechs without falling into the copyright infringement area. However, anyone suggesting to use the designs from the Tech Readout: Project Phoenix will be summarily shot! Worst looking mechs ever!

And where's the love for the Stinger and Wasp. I was always a Locust fan in TT but got endless milage out of the original lights.

I saw the hatchet man in there, its utterly useless since you cant even use the hatchet but I would like to see some hand-to-hand combat in the future.
