Be afraid, be very afraid. This came from Herb Beas' FB page, you know, the Line Developer for Battletech...

You're looking at the first 100+ ton premium `Mech.

The arms are from a commando you can clearly see the hands and the red plate that is on the face, the pic its self is the standard background they use for all of their reveal pictures, you can clearly see the atlas firing the AC-20 in the background in the center of the pic.

to me those arms look like annihilator arms

Frankenmech is a good idea...

After some use of my awesome paint skill, I made this picture:

I think, there are missing some parts in the original. In my version it looks like a cyclops. The Annihilator doesn't fit to me. My steady silent noise in my head wispers "highlander", but sadly this is more a last hope.

*sigh* still pending...

I just ran some numbers with SSW and I checked if something could be done with a 100T Mech with 10 SRM6.

Gives a 100T (Endo-Steel) Mech with 19.5T of Armor, Speed of 4/6 (XL Engine), 12 Double Heat Sink, and 10T of SRM6 Ammo...

Translates into an average Alpha Strike of roughly 60 Damage (assuming 50% hit rate) ouch. Thats like 6 homing PPC point blank.

Enough Ammo to dish out... (10T * 15 Shots * 6 Missile * 2 Damage) 1800 Damage max ?!? Almost enough to wipe an entire Lance of Atlases...

Now I got to go try that thing in MW4 lmao :P

I thought we decided six pages ago that the picture is irrelevant and is a scrambled heap of already released mechs...

Eh, lets read into this.

<conspiracy goggles>

Everyone is expecting a single new mech.

Image appears to be a conglomerate of several mechs already released.

Many mechs have some sort of association with the Goddess Artemis whether it be via myth association or equipment.

Dev's like to blow minds.

<wild conclusion>

Image is a partial head fake! The final image will actually contain FIVE mechs (2 assaults, 1 of each other weight class) as indicated by the current image actually containing multiple mech pieces! All mechs will be have a variant that equips Artemis Equipment!

</wild conclusion>

</conspiracy goggles>

please note that I know JACK about loadouts... Boo!

we are being trolled, do you realize this?

this recalls me when the website for Mechwarrior Click Game by Wizkids placed a small picture in the home page. it was a tigth zoom of a Jade Falcon mech that each day zoomed out a little more. speculations went crazy to insane levels!

Folks see what they want to see. However, the cyclops head people keep saying they see, is just a de-pixelated Commando.

Exhibit A

They're not banned, dev's have already said they plan to do something "special" with the unseen/reseen, and by all accounts they've got licensing for those mechs all squared away. Now what that means is anyone's guess. They could be complete redesigns with the same loadouts, or they could be very similar to the originals with superficial changes.

Lol, so maybe I'm not the only person who has played all 3 S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games so much that when I see or hear the word stalker I instantly hear a russian accented voice in my head saying..."Hey Stalker, whats up?" :-)

Geek here, already photoshopping it together. The low quality is giving me hell though, and it looks like they actually left out a lot of the mech from the scrambled image

Is it me or does the second block in, and second block down on the scrambled image look a little like the tracks of a tank?
