Without a doubt I'll be rocking the Ryoken and Madcat for the first day or two. Those are the ones I've been looking forward to most (in that order).

I'll still be taking scalps in my IS lights though. Might start up a tally of how many Dire/Timber Wolves I kill in my darling Jenner
Not at all interested in any clans other than Snow Raven, and we're not likely to see them for at least a few years, so I'll be defending the IS in the name of the Draconis Combine regardless of what I'm piloting.

What about you?



A week is too long!

Dire Wolf, custom build of 2 CUAC-10, 2 LB-5X, 4 ERML and a Mark VI TC

Edit: forgot to list my IS mech, Most likely my Shadowhawks, since they are quick and can pack enough firepower to get me out of tight spots

It has already started.

For the past few times I have played this game, I keep seeing people sporting clan banners with IS mechs. A pre-invasion of sorts?

[Rhaythe]

An invasion - where clan forces and IS forces fight on the same side. Weird.

I'll probably provide a moving target in my old DDC (screw the corporate law final..there are mechs that need to be smashed )

[Malcolm Vordermark]

I've been building my BNC-3S to emulate the speed and fire power of the Dire Wolf as best I can. It will be nice to finally be in the real thing.

I plan to build mine as follows:

2 x UAC10 + 6 tons ammo
2 x ER Large Laser
4 x ER Medium Laser
1 x Streak 6 + 1 ton ammo
23 x DHS

what invasion?

it will all be mixed clan-is vs clan-is... its just new mechs... the lore fluff was used for marketing.

you want clan vs is? ... private lobby is that way...

Only for a little while...before combat is completely removed and we just have tea parties together and discuss politics.

Now, imagine for a moment if it had to be clan vs IS on day one.

Matchmaker: 34 teams of clan forces are ready to play. 2 teams of IS are ready to play.

Whelp.

PGI couldn't have made this more uneventful if they tried.

[Merrick]

can we please just have one thread that stays on topic without it being loaded down with all the opinions of why this will suck, just one discussion about the mechs we intend to use to actually play the game and have fun... Please?

Never underestimate PGI. I did. It never even occurred to me that anyone would be stupid enough to ignore one of the most important things about BT. i.e. There are factions.

PGI could always match clan vs clan if there is not enough IS teams.

There is no topic.
OP asked which clans mechs will be invading the IS? Answer: None.
OP asked which IS mechs will be defending their home? Answer: None.

[Tsig]

Y'all just need to chill out and play the game without worrying about who's IS or Clan until CW actually comes out. Until then, enjoy playing in the new big, stompy, robots.

exactly...

at least we can just hope that CW will rectify this by bringing in faction warfare
