The Enforcer is the one I'm most interested. Followed by the King Crab, then a ways down, the Zeus, and then much further the Grasshopper and the Panther.

Like a buttload of people predicted the Enforcer.

Literally a buttload.

I don't think you know what the word 'literally' means. Or, at least, I hope you don't.

It's a legitimate question. ;)

An imperial butt is slightly larger than a metric butt.
Now both are still 2 Hogsheads, but the former is (I believe) around 126 Gallons, and the latter around 105.
(Or vice versa, I haven't checked in a while, but it's an actual unit of measurement.)

hoping the Enforcer can take over the spots for the Wolverine and Shadow Hawk, Shawk always felt clunky to me, Wolverine seemed to maneuver better but was missing the bullet sponge ability of the SH, a 5 jump jet 50ton mech with the mobility of a light, difficult to target, and carries a boom stick should make me very happy!

I'd do anything to see a project Phoenix 2. I know the unseen are a difficult subject, and y'all have made multiple comments about it. Legal issues being what they are. But I guarantee a package with the rifleman, stinger, Phoenix hawk, marauder, war hammer etc would sell like hot cakes.

That being said....... I still want a Phoenix thunderbolt and battle master ;(

I'll stop beating a dead horse for the moment.....


Crap didn't realize this was a necro!

Could you open up offers to upgrade existing Founder/Phoenix owners who didn't get the top tier?

That option keeps the uniqueness of the packages, but also allows the option to those who had bought a lower tier to support the game the ability to at least... words... um... at least have the option like the current packs do to upgrade at a later date? The idea is technically sound (you didn't buy in at all, you still don't get the option).

Gah thought it was a new thread. Someone lock this before we have a zombie(mech) invasion

Inner Sphere omnimech pack:

Owens - $30
Bushwacker - $60
Avatar - $90
Sunder - $120

Include the King Crab in the Sunder pack at all times, but here is what you do to win over your customers;

Early reward for first two weeks: King Crab with any pack, extra premium time, mech bays, etc.
Weeks 3-4: King Crab with Bushwacker, Avatar and Sunder packs, fewer perks.
Weeks 4-5: King Crab with Avatar and Sunder packs; fewer perks.
After the first six weeks, King Crab only a freebie with Sunder pack at this point; very little in terms of freebies.

This way, the guys who do not have $80 to dish out can get it for $30-60, as long as they jump on the bandwagon fast.

Bushwacker isn't an Omnimech. You'd have to substitute in the Strider.


Also, IS Omnis would just be bad in general because of having to deal with Omnimech restrictions but not getting to use powerful Clan tech like the CXL engine or smaller stuff. Some even have hardwired SHS or CASE with XL engines...

Why does it HAVE to be the Strider? I might want a Blackjack-Omni, tyvm.

The obvious choice here is the Phoenix Program mechs. The meme with Fry in it saying "TAKE MY MONEY" is what I'm saying. Also it would give me an actual decent camo pattern for the Shadow Hawk since all of the other ones looks like crap.
