It's Sunday night; do you know where your CN9-AH is?

Well, if they ever decide to add more variants of existing mechs as they did with the Phoenix mechs...I hope they consider this one!

Nope, but I have this video as the AH.

I wasn't quite as fortunate though. I was leading MGs like a moron, and we had on/off chances of hitting while leading with delayed fire from the ACs and while leading, convergence was about impossible to make work.

On second thought, it was a silly mech. Don't bring it back.

Yeah you are right - as far as i can remember the CN9-AH was very very ill. No energy weapons...and the SRMs were as hot - had ammunition and did weight 4 times of a single Medium Laser.
Only idiots will drive a AH. PGI has to do better than changing there in game values.

On a similar topic...
I wonder if we'll ever see "classic" patterns/paint.

The closed beta ones.

At that time all the Cents seemed pretty fragile. Personally, if you forget the standard engine zombie, you can do a 250XL with an AC20 with 3 tons ammo, 2 SRM6 with 3 tons ammo and have a 42 alpha at 90 KPH. I think it would do well enough to stop any more sales of the Yen.

CN9-AH would be a nice compliment to the stable.

Please PGI ? For those of us that never had the privilege of owning/piloting one, please bring back the CN9-AH !!

Pretty please with sugar on top.......

Ever better, I'd like to go 3 AC/2s + Missiles, or AC/10 + Mgs + missiles. It had 3 ballistic slots and 2 missile. :)

I'm not so sure. PGI was pretty keen to make it slower than the others. I remember a 225 limit on it.

So .. a "Medium" bundle featuring Centurions, without an -AH in sight.

It's like you're just making fun of us at this point! :P

So, the -AH wants to know how well this missile fix is going.

Keep this thread alive!
People are now saying that the FLEA was the placeholder mech for the LOCUST and that the FLEA will never be added into the game because it IS the locust! This CN9-AH incident has set a terrible precedent! People think this is acceptable! It is not!

We will post for the CN9-AH!
We will post for the flea!
We will post until we are banned or can not otherwise post!

Show your surport and love for the forgotten mech! We remember! We care!

PGI, I may not have a fancy founder tag but i assure you i am one of your oldest players, so please heed my words. I am a former -AH pilot, and current -YLW pilot, i loved both of these chassis and despite the AC/20 they felt and played differently. with the top speed advantage, c-bill boost, lore friendliness, and the energy hard points the -YLW keeps enough distinctive advantages to separate it from the -AH, and obviously this mech is loved and oft requested, unlike the urban mech and the flea, you all ready made it and you have it in digital storage somewhere.

PGI you are fighting a PR war with your players whether you like it or not. re-releasing the -AH into the wild will win you favor with the vets and bring some positivity back to the community and once again generate more buzz for the medium mechs, a lot more then a new hero will. it is a boon for you, a win for the community, a potent chassis for newer players, and requires little investment from your staff to re-implement, please PGI, free the CN9-AH.

Why can't we have both?

In fact, by providing the CN9-AH, not only do they provide more options, but they remove the still whispered P2W arguments, because there is now a free to play version capable of packing the AC20.

I never said we should not have both. In fact i greatly hope we do, and that PGI will admit that these two mechs are not mutually exclusive. Quiaff?

when did I say you did? Were I referencing you, I would have quoted you, good sir. But I fully concur.
