Sound good maybe I'll be done with my other mechs when these get put in. Probably not thou. Thanks Niko for the info.

[Volt Corsair]

[Redacted]

Dude, the Saber Package info's been out for a while. You could've easily gone to Sarna and looked at each variant shown on the Project Phoenix page. Stop being negative, Nancy.

About as expected from Sarna. Looking forward to having my new toys!

[TheCrazySteve]

Thanks for the post! Anyway we could get torso twist range added to the released stats?

Yes, this! I was searching everywhere for these numbers.

[GizmoGecko]

I'm right on the verge of purchasing the package, and I think just a little screenshot of the Griffin would tip me over, if you'd be so kind ?

[Will9761]

Thanks for telling us the updates about the Wolvie and Griff.

[MADSix]

Sweet. Thanks Niko. Hopefully we can get some sample builds on smurfy now.

[Wriath]

Pretty excited to get these, seems like the shawk is the superior chassis, but the maneuverability on them could make up the difference.

[IceGryphon]

No GRF-2N version.
It's clear IGP/PGI hate Fun and Griffins.
FSCK THIS.

[Garamanus]

The Shadowhawk has been the best medium I have ever played, I am looking forward to these ones to see if they will rival it

[Wrenchfarm]

It's nice that longtime fans who are nostalgic about the ReSeen mechs get a chance to play with these, but jesus, those hardpoints.

The Griff with all of it's damage located in it's RA and RT looks like a big giant Cent that can't even zombie. Lose that RT and you might as well GG/quit.

I like the concept art of the Wolverine. I don't like how it devotes one of it's few energy points to a head slot on every variant. At least it is a little more spread out than the Griff.

I hope they make the transfer from concept art to actual model better than the Shadow Hawk did.

[Malleus011]

Glad to see these 'mechs coming to the game.

Quite concerned about jamming 66% of any 'mechs hard points into a single arm. That seems ... punitive.

[Belorion]

With each classic mech released, this game feels more and more like the BT I grew to love as a youth.

I love it

[Threat Doc]

Well, I had hoped that money would be available so I could make these purchases. Alas, it has not been, and that saddens me. I would love to have three Wolverine's to work from as soon as I'm done with my Cat's.

[Will9761]

Man, I cannot wait to have these two mechs in my Mech Bays. This is feels like a treat.

[Hastur Azargo]

This December! LIVE on MWO public servers: PHOENIX 2: TEH SABRES!

STARRING:

• GRF-1N, the "Blow off my right torso for profit!" man;
  
• GRF-1S, the "Right arm is my Four Awesome PPCs (F. A. P.) arm!" man;
  
• GRF-3M, the "I got only 2 lasers and they can't even converge!" man;
  
• WVR-6R, the "You thought all Wolverines would have ballistics? HAHAHA!" man;
  
• WVR-6K, the "I'm so miserable, I wish I was a Kintaro" man, blessed with rare freak gifts, like having NO JUMPJETS, and only a Single Missile Hardpoint! WOW! (Just shut up and Take My Money already!)
  
• Aaaaand the WVR-7K, the "I'm a rich XL boy but my ball turret is broken anyway!" man!

They lost their decals!
They barely found paints from a second-hand PC-GAMER color sale!
And now they are trying to escape from a nightmarish temple of NO-P2W, which, even if they survive, has already changed them FOREVER.

And so, this Christmas Eve, watch the awkward heroes find their comfort-zone builds!
Watch them embrace jump-striking, long dead since Highlanders and bad missile HSR have cannibalized Trebuchets!
Watch them rage over being unable to mount 4+ PPCs, like the fearsome Papa Stalker!
Watch them learn to run with Large Lasers and master the impossible skill of spacing your shots by 0,5 seconds to defeat Ghost Heat like it never existed!

And ultimately, watch them discover and claim their DESTINY! (Except for WVR-6K, which tries to commit suicide after discovering he sucks even more than TBT-5J, but gets stuck on rubble while on his way to a Volcano, then falls off map into a world of source code, where he becomes hidden evil Overlord and starts sneaking in stealth nerfs to everyone's favorite modules, so that everyone shares his misery, until he's rescued by Pretty Baby and the actual Misery, and finally hands PGI the cure from their buggy HSR! He then vows revenge against Harmony Gold for NO APPARENT REASON, and sets off into the sunset, to return only when victorious, with big brothers MAD and WHM at his side)!

Seriously, the 2 weeks better pass fast. I have nothing to unlock to a degree I started playing my champ Jenner. TEH SABRES can't get here soon enough <3

Nice, info about mechs we get in 2.5 weeks.
But not even a picture about a mech we get in 3 days.
