It was mentioned by Russ on a twitter (supposedly, I can't recall the thread).

But that was it. It's one of several mechs to release alongside Clans in the July to whenever Clans stop releasing (December-ish?)

Nothing else that I know of. Expect it to have a 'gut'.

They're having trouble coding the water-cooling jacket for the PPC (a signature feature of the Vindicator).

The vindicator has not ever been officially confirmed as being in development, though it was semi-teased as being released sometime during the clan invasion.

Therefore asking for screenshots is premature at best, but more like childishly impatient and unreasonable in your expectations.

A MAULER Screenshot, a long shot butmaybe, as that has at least been stated to be in concept stage.... so someone actually did some work on that beyond scribbling the name on a napkin.

And I know Jobe was probably joking, but I wouldn`t expect the cooling jacket to be coded in.... most wouldn`t ever use it (and most current maps have no water to begin with), and standing still for 10 seconds to cool the PPC would be a death sentence against an even remotely intelligent opponent. :P

Scaling issues.
First you have the Blackjack, 45 tons, with it Harry Potter wand-style PPC, cute and dainty. Now how do you reconcile the 45 ton Vindicator with a massive Warhammer style barrel-arm.
