The next
assault Mech should be definitely the
Banshee. We need it to fill the lack on an 95 ton mech and we never see it in a Mechwarrior game before. The posted pic above shows how nice a redesigned
Banshee could look.
Hatamoto-Chi and
Zeus? Then we have three 80 ton mechs. We've already three 50 ton mechs, so why not! It's possible. Both are iconic to their factions
(Kurita & Steiner).
We still need a 55 ton mech in the medium class. Time to bring the
Dervish or
Kintaro to the scene. Both mechs fit perfectly to the current timeline and both mechs have enough variants.
The last annonced mechs were: Nr.16:
Flea (light), Nr.17: Highlander (assault), Nr.18: Blackjack (medium) and Nr.19:
Orion (heavy).
In my opinion BattleMech Nr. 20 should be a light mech, cause it's time.
I'm sure it will be the
UrbanMech. The whole com wants it. The light class is my fav. weightclass, but the
Urbie is a mech i would never pilot. Ultra slow and fugly as hell. Can't understand the hype about it. Better candidates would be mechs like
Firestarter,
Wolfhound or
Panther. The first is my fav. Fast, has jumpjets, lots of different variants. If you don't like the Flamers, than change them to four
Small Lasers. 6 energy and 2 ballistic hardpoints sounds really good to me.
This beautiful redesign by
FD shows, how nice the
Firestarter could look.
Your thoughts?
