I would like to see a Spider hero mech! We should add that to the hero suggestions!

With missiles. Like the Cicada Hero Mech.

and ecm like the 3L!

edit: a hero version of the 3L with jump jets might make some folks upset, that may not balance well. I'd just like a hero with JJ that runs fast

I think we are still a year out for OUR interaction with the invasion. There's too much lore dependent information for the first year for us to have any real impact on it. Too many novels/source books/TV shows over every aspect of the first year of the invasion. I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't start fighting them until after they renewed the invasion post ilkhan election. Though there's a small window there relatively before Tukayyid.....

Pretty sure they are following the time line but NOT the story line.

Agreed,but there might be a clause that they cannot interfere with the story line.... Lets say we stomp the Clans or the Clans stomp us and there's no reason for events in the story to take place. I know it's far fetched, but if we are wining on every front except the ones in the books, then it starts to not make sense that we wouldn't be moves to that front.....

the devs already stated they will be curating canon factions and groups. What we as players will most likely be, are the outliers that weren't mentioned in any kind of canon document. Kind of like how world war 2 created countless tales and stories but most will never be known. No one will be major players in the universe so there will be no need to highlight them.

Wow.... you know that would actually maybe, probably, kinda work in this game.

Now that's a Steiner assault party! (Zeus is the favorite Steiner assault mech and Banshee is the second)

Looks like they are shooting a Spider and a... Cicada? Probably Freeworlders... poor guys..

ECM shows they are following neither. The PPC fix definately shows they arent much interested in lore.
Or theyre following whatever is convenient at the time.

Theyve said we wont be allowed to fight on storyline worlds... which sucks imo. That means My faction will be allowed to fight on what 8 worlds?

[SgtMagor]

According to the rumored mechs looks like a devastator or Zeus

Nothing wrong with PUG stomping lol. Honestly at this point I would take even the urbanmech as the new assault and I hate that thing!

Be fair, that's a Steiner scout lance versus some other House scout lance....

Which any self respecting Steiner would most certainly do, after mounting an Artemis IV on it first
