so now we have seen
Commando
Raven
Panther
Centurion
Hunchback
Catapult
Grasshopper
Thunderbolt
Victor
Banshee
Atlas

So, is it a simple 12? If so, what are our mystery Heavy and Medium?

I guess if someone really wanted to, they could try out every combination of answers.

We could just ask HBS to give us a list. I am sure that I got them more than one backer by doing this challenge.

indeed. I think you should.

I am curious if they have all the current IS options on it, a basic 12, or what.

If there was only 1 more Medium and Heavy... wonder what it would be?

Catapult? Orion? For Medium, Shadowhawk?

Someone earlier said Cataphract, if that is right then there are 3 lights, 2 mediums, 4 heavies, 3 assaults. for 12 total.

Almost done grinding basics on my COM-1D, excruciating. Also, I am only a game or two away from buying my third variant (probably the 1B). I am getting better with my Commandos, but I still am not much of a light pilot.

Once you get "kinda ok" with Commandos try out a firestarter or Arctic Cheetah. It will amaze you ;)

Actually, I have Arctic Cheetahs on my main account, but I have not gotten around to leveling them yet, but I am sure they are face-roll easy compared to Commandos, just based on the fact that my weapons just bounce off of them while they chase me down.

Hey guys, double xp weekend and if you accumulate 15 kills you get a radar dep module. It will be a great chance to finish leveling up some mechs.
