What weighs between 79 and 96 tons, and is currently on sale?

The Awesome 8R, Highlander 733C, and Stalker 3F!

These big brawny beasts are on sale from Friday July 12th 10am PDT to Tuesday July 16th 10am PDT. Mechs this Massive need help staying hidden (or standing out, say in neon pink and green, depending on your preference), so grab Camo Spec Patterns for the Awesome, Highlander and Stalker for 50% off!

What's on sale?

  • AWS-8R, regular 2610 , now 1827
  • HGN-733C, regular 3465 , now 2425
  • STK-3F, regular 3050 , now 2135

50% off Pattern (Awesome, Highlander, Stalker):

  • Tiger, regular 750 , now 375

So if you're looking for some Assault Mechs, new camo, or both, check out this sale.

 

We'll see you (and your new Mech) on the battlefield.

Cheers, The MechWarrior Online Team

The 733C doesn't lend to that... the other ones do though.

*Is in the middle of artwork. Spots sale. Logs on. Buys tiger patterns. Pops out to play later after finishing assignments for GAD.* Long as there's patterns or colors included in a sale, I'm content.

If tiger camo did not randomly switch between vertical and horizontal stripes, I might've considered it. But as things are now, I checked how it looks, was going "Nope" and turned off MWO again.

MC prices for all mechs is too high. "Sale" prices are higher than everyday prices should be. If all mechs were ~$5, I'd probably own most of them instead of grinding for cbills.

Ah, fresh assault pilots out of training school, what could be a better target?

XL engine Hunchback 4G is a better target.

733C is certainly no slouch either. The AWS is dead last though, heavy on the "dead". ;)

Well, the AC20 arm seems to be a source of disappointment for me. Even the 733 is more appealing to me at this point in the game.

Besides... Assault tourney next weekend!

Why mention "96 tons" when there is no 95 tons mech on sale? :D

UI 1.0 does not really allow for bundle or BOGO sales, but those are in the plans for UI 2.0.

I think all of those 'mechs are good choices. The AWS-8R is great because it can go as fast as some medium and heavy 'mechs with the 300 XL while mounting a lot of missile launchers. I've revisited the 4xSRM-6 w/ Artemis, and it still hits hard and fast - That is when hit detection is working!
