Greetings MechWarriors,

This post details the Loadout information for all 'Mechs releasing as part of the July 21st patch.

Arctic Cheetah

Release date for MC: September 15th
Release date for C-Bills: October 20th

Originally designed and manufactured by Clan Ice Hellion in the year 3037, Clan Smoke Jaguar's subsequent conquest of the manufacturing facility on planet Foster allowed the Jaguars to add this formidable Light 'Mech to its own arsenal. Under their banner the Arctic Cheetah first saw combat against the Inner Sphere at the Battle of Luthien, where it was dubbed the Hankyu ("short bow") by the forces of the Draconis Combine.

As an ECM-capable Light 'Mech with a stock speed of 129.6kph and enough firepower potential to stack up against the strongest Light 'Mechs of the Inner Sphere, the Arctic Cheetah excels as a medium-range offensive scout.

Shadow Cat

Release date for MC: September 1st
Release date for C-Bills: October 6th

Preparations for the Clan's 'Operation Revival' were long underway prior to the initial invasion in the year 3049, and it was with this in mind that Clan Nova Cat started rolling Shadow Cat's off the production line in the year 3003. Even before the invasion the MASC-equipped Shadow Cat easily distinguished itself on the battlefields of the Clan Homeworlds as a highly-maneuverable and well-armed Medium 'Mech.
As with the Arctic Cheetah, the Shadow Cat first saw combat against Inner Sphere forces during the Battle of Luthien. However, unlike the Arctic Cheetah/Hankyu, no Inner Sphere pilots managed to survive an encounter with the Shadow Cat until its appearance at the Battle of Tukayyid four months later. This grim distinction contributed to the Shadow Cat being one of the first Clan 'Mechs not to receive a unique designation from Inner Sphere pilots.

As an ECM-capable Medium 'Mech with fixed MASC and tonnage to spare, the Shadow Cat excels due to its excellent scouting capabilities and capacity to equip a wide range of weaponry.

The Shadowcat is a beautiful mech. Just like I remember it from the other games. Kudos.

The Arctic Cheetah looks good too, but appears to be "THE" new light, dwarfing the Firestarter.

HAHAHAH! What? The Myst Lynx was dead long ago and still needs much more to become relevant!

To be fair, it's a double whammy against the Kitfox as well.

And it quite clearly isn't getting that, and loses the little role it had with the ACH.

in the patch notes 2nd paragraph "Badges and Titles provided through Clan Invasion Wave 3 and the Clan Trilogy promotionwill be injected into eligible pilot accounts during this patch, whileFaction Content for Wave 3 will become available for selection once the servers return from patch maintenance."

Shadowcat getting extra armor? Why thank you (will make up for having those really easy to hit STs) and was my chief concern with the 45 tonner.

If you could deliver that nao, that would be great.

Literally copy-pasted from sarna.net with a few minor tweaks. Takes zero effort.

I don't care if the little paragraphs are almost straight from Sarna. It's awesome that PGI is putting them up there. Hopefully we can eventually get some sort of in-game encyclopedia of information that has the relevant paragraphs to ALL of the mechs we can get in game, as well as factions and so much more (EDIT: Or at the very least on the website). Not only would that help drastically with immersion, but it'd give people who don't know about the lore of the Battletech universe something to act as an introductory lore-primer.

These little snippets of lore info are a great start.

Nothing about ECM range being reduced to 90m or did I miss something?
Finally EU servers! Statistic reset would be nice or have them combined with the archived ones and start a new current...
But EU servers are great. Thank you very much PGI.

Why the hell are these two unreleased mechs getting some of the best quirks of any clan mech? The Cheetah is already tier 1 before release, and the Cat will be better than any mech lighter than the Crow. It is hard for me to argue against, owning this whole pack... but...

These make the Mist Lynx, Kitfox, Adder and Ice Ferret look like dog turds. Seriously, please fix those mechs.

I like that you guys took the time to add a little lore snippet in there. Would like to see that in the game eventually, like somekind of online warbook of sorts. :)
