Isn't the 1AA an option?

And, I forgot which variant had the MG in the head, but I can already see the lol of the AC2 substitution.

Edit: Never mind, it's the 1X.

Yea, the VND has a Medium in the head and a small in the left arm. The 1X replaces the small laser so it's in the arm which would mean a 2 or a 5 (unless some hard point inflation happens and adds 2B).

I thought the ballistic in the head. Now you've crushed my dream of the AC2 head dakka.

Would prefer a Hatchetman as my favorite of all time, but it's likely a Vindicator (and we won't see Phoenix Hawks)

Can someone post a quote or a link to the Twitter post please?

PS: Snake variant would be nifty for the ballistic.

got another 45 on the horizon

Of course on the Horizon could mean anything...it could even be referring to a Clan Mech for all we know.

But personally, I would love the Hatchetman.

Phoenix Hawk would be great...unfortunately it's Unseen.

Vindicator or Wyvern are sadly the most likely choices.

Isn't the Wyvern more or less the same as the Vindicator?

At least, the Vindicator was available in MW2 Mercs...

[3rdworld]

He said they were working on the vindicator a month or so. Then said that a 45 ton is next.

Pretty safe bet the next mech is the vindicator.

Hatchetman! (even if the hatchet is only cosmetic to begin with)

[N a p e s]

If it's the Hatchetman they will make a lot of people, myself included, very happy!

[Clownwarlord]

maybe ...

....

the hatchetman!!!

Yep maybe?

Doubtful but maybe.

Because carrying a huge, easily hit, useless ax is what medium mechs need to be competitive.

I would like to use Locusts as my club and Urbies as my shield. Then real combat will commence!

If you hold a Raven by it's feet it almost looks like a 'military pick'

No doubt it would be ridiculous to release the mech without a proper functionning melee mechanic. But if they did a simultaneous release of that functionality and the mech I'm guessing a good part of the community would be happy.

Anyways, we know we're far away from melee so I'd be surprised if it was the Hatchetman.

I dub thee "weapon usage" as "Nevermore".

It's a medium that isn't a Shadow Hawk. That is all that needs to be said, unfortunately.

You should come across my Cent-A once in a while.
