With wild speculation abounding, which Hero Mech would you most like to see arrive with the March 5th patch?

I have two I would love to see:

1) A Raven Hero that can mount ECM but has no missile slots only ballistic and energy. Should it be as fast as the other ECM capable Raven though?

2) An Atlas Hero with left and right torso ballistic slots and maybe 10% more armour able to be added per location. Kinda big, heavy and stupid I guess!

If you mount up a flamer, you'd be just as likely to light yourself up as anyone else

I'd like to see a Hero Nova Cat.

Well it was what? Flame/Fang=>Death Knell=>Pretty Baby. So should be a Hunchback or Cicada assuming they won't release a Trebuchet Hero-version immediately.

[Mechteric]

I think another Medium will happen since most recently was light and assault and we already have more heavy heroes. Probably a Trebuchet would be my guess, Cicada also likely.

[Sedant]

Its the 6th Hero, there are two dragons. And 95% chance it will be a medium, Garth wants his 'Chicada'.

Isnt that a clan mech? Clan mechs won't be coming out in a little bit. I think you will have to wait until the ingame timeline gets to 3059. http://www.sarna.net...28BattleMech%29 Anyways I think the Cicada will get some love. Seems like the logical choice to me.

Fear you might have to wait a while longer for that, Clan invasion into the Inner Sphere is only really just starting this year so the availability of Clan Tech may be a few months or even more than a year away yet.

Hunchback is pretty popular. They seem to be releasing Hero versions of the less popular mechs and newly released mechs.

I'd like to see a Hunchback Hero mech. Either one with 2 cannon hunches or one with a 4SP style missile hunch on one side and a cannon hunch on the other. Maybe even one which has 2, giant energy hunches (akin to the PPC mounts on the K2) so I can make a PPC sniper and divide my weapons across 2 torsos.

Yep. Its name is going to be "TheGarth."

I'd also like to see a hero Uziel...

The idea of a Hunchback with 2 Hunches is amazing. Imagine if you had a 4P-P with 16! Small lasers. Even with two massive targets like that it'd be hilarious to play.

[NocturnalBeast]

I believe it will be a Cicada as well, since we are due for another medium Hero mech.

[Butane9000]

More the likely will be a Cicada or a Jenner.

I find cheese builds very annoying so there is no doubt I would find this one annoying too.
