The Devastator fits the timeline. This is undistputable. Its best variant re-entered production in 3048. it would be a great 100 ton opponent for the atlas. 6 energy, 2 arm mounted ballistic, MASC capabilities, large engine cap, great possibilites aesthetically. I see no downside. I don't know about you but i would instantly swap out those PPCs and the XL for a larger engine and 6 medium lasers, 2 gauss would be a strong but not OP loadout for the devastator. I realise it would open the game to 2 gauss, 2 erppcs, 4 medium lasers. A very scary loadout. But i think it would be a good platform. MASC would be very cool for it as a 100 tonner. The MUSE EARTH hero was capable of a 400XXL engine and MASC meaning 100kph for short bursts. Thats pretty beastly. That variant also boasts 2 heavy ppcs with ppc capacitors and i think 4 medium lasers as backup weapons. Hell a variant carries more armor than the atlas was capable of carrying (atlas carries 19.5 tons and a variant carried 20 tons). This is a sniper anchor that teams need. I understand there are other assaults that fill that role but this assault is directly meant for that role and is the most capable of it. This will leave the other assaults in the dust pushing them into shorter ranged roles (hopefully). Stalkers shouldnt carry 4 ppcs, atlases dont need 2-4 ppcs and a gauss. Now this mech can send them back to their roles. A missile/laser boat and a brawler. I think it would be interesting for an ac20 capable variant (that sacrificed some energy mounts) that would be the cheapest variant (no i am not an ac40 fan btw). One could carry dual ams with 4 energy mounts. The last 2 ballistic with 6 energy mounts. I personally would end up in the dual ams and the 6 energy versions. Dual ams are very fun and helpful to mount. What do you think? Please don;t hate too heavily and i understand its unreal capabilites and some of its gamebreaking power.

Kintaro is August mech

idk why but there no longer seems to be a pattern. Orion and Flea are on backlog. The orion is coming for sure though.


maybe they are putting together another package deal and witholding flea/orion some of the more reconizable mechs for that deal

I imagine the Flea is being held up because of MASC which I can't see being implemented until they get a handle on the hit registration issues even if it were ready to go.

While that may be true, the last one is not available right now, thus making it out of the question unless a serious time jump happened.
