Just seems like in all the "Special" Mech giveaway announcements, this kinda got missed.

Yeah, it ain't CW yet, the future is still in the future, but a great big thank you as a Founder for that.

And for all the other loyalty rewards.

See ya dirtside, Mechwarriors. (Soon in either my shiny new CN-9AH, KGC or AS7-S!!!)

Man, this makes me want to break out my Founder Hunchie just for old time's sake. Very nice.

Yup. I consider that to be correcting a historical injustice (even if we did get exactly what we paid for) and I'm glad they did it.

Founder mechs deserve it.

And yeah, PGI just forced my hand on the Centurion. I HAD been considering grabbing one, now I'm going to have to. :P

No, no, no, it wasn't overlooked.

It was very much noticed and appreciated.

Founders was the one thing before my time in there, but I nodded approval as well. That variance hasn't ever made sense to me.

Trust me, you may have missed me in my Founder's Jenner during the Lance Challenge, but chances are, my NARCs did not miss you!!! ;)

When we made more C-bills than we knew what to do with every winning game, even after RnR, 25% was no laughing matter. I had several games where I made at least 100k in bonus alone and at least one where I made over 200k in bonus. Half mil games were not that uncommon.

some patches 2 million cbill matches after repairs were doable.

It was the two sourest things with the introduction of Hero 'mechs; that the CN9-AH was removed for the Yen-Lo Wang and that the Heroes got a better C-Bill boost than our Founder 'mechs.

And today BOTH of these slights have been eliminated.

Oh yeah, noticed that one pretty quick and I am glad PGI made that decision. Might break out my Cat and or Jenner a bit more often now.

Very cool, I'm glad they received the bump in C-Bill boost. Thanks PGI.

Now...maybe...the two additional energy hard points added back to the Cat K2...:). J/k, kind of steps on the toes of the Jester. It was just wishful thinking.

Really though, thanks PGI.

I'd take my module slot and twist range back, TYVM.

I read the announcement and I think I peed a little.... Haven't been this excited since I first found out about the game back in '09.... :D
