So, clans are hear and rolling face with the correct builds. The IS, as in lore, needs a response to these monsters.

COMGAURD CLANBUSTER PACK:
King Crab
Black Knight
Champion
Wyvern
Husser

Also, would like to see the Gaurds opened up as a playable faction. What do you all think?

iirc No Royal mechs, I guess anything else is fair game.

Why not? We already have access to all the technology those mechs used, except MASC (technical issues), Null Signature System (actually we do, it's called ECM ) and Chameleon Light Polarization System (OMGCLOAKINGDEVICE).

Ah the Hussar.

Has one large laser.

Also explodes when given a dirty look.

[Ursh]

Long live Stefan Amaris!

[Fishhawk]

Would love to see the Firefly.

[Lootee]

Yes Comstar should be a pickable faction.

Need to add Crockett, Toyama, Grand Crusader, Buccaneer and Raijin in the Com Guards reinforcements pack.

Make the Blakist space jihadis a faction too.

I would so create a second account to play as the Word of Blake, BTs space Dirca Dirca Ala Muhomid Jihad.

I expect my Blakest Hero mechs (Or would they be called Villin mechs?) to explode dealing 25 to 30 damage in a 50 to 90 meter radius when destroyed instead of a C-Bill boost.

EDIT:
I also want a "warhorn" in that when you get a kill it goes "Silence!! I kIll you!!"

yeah because what this game *really* needs are more mech packs rather than, you know, features and maps.

But yes, there are some mechs whose appearance is long overdue.

[Sandpit]

I think given their previous track record that you'll see exactly this. Some sort of IS pack (I predicted IIC mech pack a few months back personally) like this announced very soon. I also think we have a better chance of seeing something like this before we ever see things like cw, voip, social tools, lobbies, etc.

[Archon]

This is an awesome idea. I especially want to see the King Crab. However, I'd still like CW first.

[LordKnightFandragon]

Clan buster? You just need a pair or more of the Jager 40s. Those bust open overlord dropships in less then 3 shots.

Tourmaline desert? Yeah, Jager AC40s were there....

But IIC mechs are clan mechs. Not IS mechs. So it wouldnt be a clan buster pack.

Well, the clans did shoot the **** out of each other all the time....

I like this... Save for the fact we haven't had a new map at all this entire year and it's well past time we had something other than mechs.

Mechs are cool but really guise sort it out a bit first pls.

IIC mechs are the IS versions of clan tech, hence the C designation. They use IS weapons that are basically reverse engineered clan tech. They are IS mechs. They were designed and created specifically for "busting" the clans

[xMintaka]

Why would they release a "Clanbuster pack"?

Have the clans even hit the rock at this point in the timeline?

For now, anything from the "Winning Mechs" sale does just fine.

Actually, IIC mechs are clan upgrades of old pre-exodus designs

http://www.sarna.net/wiki/IIC

"The IIC designation originated with the Inner Sphere and is not a Clan term, even though it describes their technology as opposed to Inner Sphere technology. As such, the Clans themselves did not use the IIC description initially, referring to IIC units and items by their traditional Star League-era name (without the "IIC" appendix)"
