Has anyone mentioned that there's three other Clan Omnis in this time period? The Cauldron-Born, Hankyu, and Shadow Cat were all around for the initial invasion. Also the Steel Viper SFE Omnis, but those are bad and not real prevalent in the invading Clans.

Just thought I'd mention it if no one else had (I mostly skimmed this thread). I love me some Shadow Cats.

Could they be returning to the later time for mech announcements? Are they just building suspense for something more awsome than an awesome?

I dont think we will see any clan mechs untill 3050.


We won't see in the game, I agree. But the Periphery is seeing them right now.

Nothing at 10:15 AM PDT. Let's wait for 10:30 or 11:00 (though they released mechs at 10:00 before, but look at yesterday wallpaper release).

Hope they release 4 Clan Mechs on the first announcement. 1 light, medium, heavy, and assault.

4 clan mechs at once? One would be fine already. (starting to dream about a FD's Timberwolf...)

So. nothing at 11:00 AM PDT either.

Feels like a slap in the face of non-Founders for me (as they only have access to the media and not the game itself). Devs may have at least warned us. I'd remember this.

Cyclops is a dismally poor Assault 'Mech - it's like a mini Atlas, but with only 10 tons of armor. Plus it's ugly as sin. Let's hear it for the Zeus, tons of hardpoints, and the coolest looking FASA designed 'Mech of the era.

And the most common Lyran light mech. :)

I would like Zeus or even the Jagger. Both can mount balistics, and right now we are lacking balistic mechs. Mind you i seen no mention of it, but an Enforcer would also be a great mech. Good armour/weapons/speed, and yes JJs.
