Even before the clan packs hit they confirmed the Vindicator. That's a very Cappellan mech, though, nothing special for you Blue Fisters.

Vindicator would be good, asumming it looks like the one in the TRO, I fully support a nice Cappy medium mech, was a cheap undramatic workman like mech.

I am kind of nervous about what insane weapon load outs pgi come up with though, and the cries of under gunned if its sensible.

I do not see a IS Mech coming for a while. We have a bunch and now the new Mech spots will be taken with the Clan releases for CB.

If the Vindicator is ever released, I see the 1R, 1SIC and 1X coming due to different weapon loadouts. The 1AA and 3L would be optional due to similar weapons to the 1R but need different hardpoints.

Mauler is odd since it will not have 3 variants until 3060.

Logged to like topic title :wacko:
Mauler was in a tweet, from russ or another dev. It was from previous dev posts that stated IS releases will be concurrent with Clan.

They have confirmed we'll be getting 1 IS mech for each clan release over the next few months.
Whether that's going to be one a month, or two a month is unclear, but we'll have another 4-8 IS mechs coming out in the next 4 months.

I'm hoping for a King Crab in there somewhere. ^-^

There's also supposed to be a new map coming too.

Champs and heroes are included in releases as well. We probably wouldn't see anything in sept, if CW is released by then...

The IS Mechs I waited for are already released and they suck due to pinpoint, frontload dmg meta and now even more due to the better over time dmg of the clans.

I'd love to see the Zeus make it in game. It's the most iconic Inner Sphere mech left. Other than some of the Macross Unseen, but we won't be seeing those unless the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future pay Harmony Gold a visit.
