Artemis's weapon was the bow. If its a mech it could be (Unseen) Archer or (Unseen) Longbow.

Longbow is a 85 ton assault after all, and the LGB-7V has an artemis....just saying

Just below the frame with the Catapult is a foot.

In comparison it doesn't match any of the released art work.

That's our clue. Two long toes.

That's the foot of a Cicada.

OK... im just going to come out and say what (I THINK). DID NO ONE UNDERSTAND Garth when he said (REDACTED)?

what do we see in the puzzle pic? A whole lot of mixing off mech and art in a picture (FRAME)

could that mean a picture frame or MECH FRAME?

WHAT DOES REDACTED MEAN GUYS?

re·dact (r -d kt ). tr.v. re·dact·ed, re·dact·ing, re·dacts. 1. To draw up or frame (a proclamation, for example). 2. To make ready for publication; edit or revise.

ANYONE? What would they draw up,edit and or revise to get ready for publication? I may be way out in left field but this screams UNSEEN/RE-SEEN to me

But we already have the Catapult. Why would they have two missilers at launch?

Well it's encrypted, so we probably don't see the right images yet.

My money is on this ending up being an image of the first clan incursions into the periphery. The countdown is in line with E3 and showing a picture of a big scary Timber Wolf/Mad Cat, probably the most iconic mech for people would make a lot of sense.

The Clans aren't here yet, nobody knows that the Timber Wolf exists yet.

So...

The pictures is a jumbled mess of multiple different already released mechs and the count down timer coincides with the opening of E3. I have no idea where the wild theories of Unseen mechs are coming from, I really don't.

read my last post above

[CheeseThief]

So the anouncement of the E3 stall and media means unseen mechs?

Um... no.

If it was a normal mech release then they wouldn't be doing this. So it's either-

* A special mech release, something the community will greatly enjoy and that the PGI hasn't done yet.
* Something else altogether.

We're just clumsily speculating...

Sure seems to me that Garth was hinting at something. And I already gave the definition so...

Who did Artemis kill in mythology?

Orion, I believe it was....

Orion was her hunting companion who was accidentally killed either by Artemis or by Gaia.

never know... we might be in for a treat and get a set of mech. With everything the DEVS have given us up till now, i would not put ANYTHING past them. And I mean that in all due respect as a great thing!

[lightnin]

For whatever it is worth, if you look in the FAQ you will see:

Q. Will the unseen Mechs make it into the game after all?

A. Look forward to a future announcement.

Who knows, maybe this is it?

[tPagen]

Maybe we should look at this in the opposite direction. Perhaps it is a mech with no missile weapons.

Paul must have something to do with this if that's the case...

Garth definitly has something to do with it as he is the only one to drop his (REDACTED) quote so im looking at that.

Hmm, maybe somebody check something up....I just got a thought on this. If you notice on all of the bits of the previously revealed mechs we have noticed inside of the scrambled image...

They are all Located right next to the missle rack, Dragon picture, Dragon has the missiles in its center torso, Catapult, the arm which has the covering for its missiles open is shown, commando, is that the arm with the LRM usually equiped? For the Centurion, the spot seen is located directly below its LRM rack which is in its torsos
Hmm, the title of this is also "Artemis" a missile lock on system, since SRMs don't use lock on (except for streaks which aren't in the inner sphere right now, but even then can't and don't use Artemis) SRMs don't matter, all of the 'mechs here carry an LRM rack at least in close proximity to the chunk (of picture) shown in the scrambled image

So, I think that we need to do some lore research here....
After the Inner Sphere rediscovered Artemis, who discovered it, and on what 'mech was it originally mounted since the discovery....might just be our next 'mech?

Artemis IV was rediscovered in 3035 by the Free Worlds League

Its either the BattleMaster or Stalker.
