Thirteen is a very fortuitous number for a Mech release! We're all anxiously awaiting an image of how the redone UrbanMech will look!

Lets hope not. That would make for an entirely too boring game.

I'm REALLY loving all these Mech designs. Some great chassis for sure. Can't wait to see the next. (There WILL be a next, won't there?)

If it follows the pattern of every other week that a new mech is shown, as it has been lately, we should get another mech next week.

Remember, last week the Stalker was revealed, there wouldn't be another today.

If the UrbanMech is released before the FIrestarter is, I might cry.

I thought it was already established that there would be 12 at launch.

Why should the 13th mech be today? Wasn't there 3 weeks between the Cataphract and Stalker?

Didn't they say in the looking ahead for June more battle mechs? As in plural? The only one we've gotten is the Stalker, so that means there should be at least one more shown. However, just because the concept art is shown doesn't mean the mech will be in exactly on launch. Even after launch they might display an upcoming mech every other week since there are still plenty of mechs to be added that are around in 3049.

I doubt that. The devs have made a big deal about the concept of 'roles'; light, med, etc, but so far the distribution of revealed mechs is uneven. But while there are 4 lights revealed so far, there are only 3 Assaults, 3 Heavies and 2 mediums.

So I would expect that that's all of the lights we'll see (so no urbanmech), but that we'll see another 2 meds and one each of the heavies and Assults.

Of course, this is just speculation. But given that mediums are supposed to be the 'workhorses' of BT armies, we should definetly see a few more meds.
