Greetings MechWarriors,

Today, we have a special patch with plenty of new content to try out.

The Hellslinger has arrived to the Battlefield! This Battlemaster variant comes equipped with dual-PPC, 4x Medium Laser and 3x Streak-SRMs. Best remembered from the Star League Era, these Mechs will remind the citizens of the Inner Sphere of the might of the Noble Houses.

A new Champion has also been fielded. The KTO-18(C) comes equipped with LRMs, BAP and a pair of M. Pulse Lasers to keep the battle going even once the ammo runs dry. This Champion is immediately available for free trial use.

Our weapon visual customization rollout has reached the Spider this week, with changes to weapons made on the Mech now being well visually represented on the Mech.

Players can further customize their Spiders and other Mechs with 6 new cockpit items available in the store, including the Kickers Warhorn!

Finally, don't forget to help your allies by holding targets for them: You might just get to hear Betty's latest voice-over callout! Please see the notes below for the full change log!
