thor, madcat, matters not, that is just mech ******. I am a proud warrior of the Inner Sphere who looks forward to ramming VatBrat scum and their mechs into the deepest black hole i can find!

Hey hey! Some of us want to salvage those things. Kill the meat leave the metal.

OK, I'm officially a Timber Wolf owner now... let's hope the side torsos hitboxes are not terrible.

If you can do fine in a Catapult then the Timber Wolf should be a piece of cake since it has arms to absorb some of the side torso damage. Just have to remember that she is not a brawler and I bet you will fall in love.

All right, I'll concede the point; it may well be Feb 19th, 3051 in MWO for all I know.

Too bad we missed the first whole year of the Clan invasion if that's the case though - some pretty intense battles there that's just going to go by unnoticed :)

Yeah big opportunity lost there, way I see it PGI really dropped the ball on the whole first glimpse and contact with the Clans.

Could have had the whole community involved by putting drops like you were in the seat of Phelan Wolf!

As far as I know missile packs will be accounted as side torsoes..

My expectancy from PGI to even achieve similar ideas has deserved them to see me briefly again for those 5 matches necessary to get the thing. I've been surprised.

So, according to NGNG Podcast #103: Bryan Ekman Part 3
they will do the clan pack mechs 1 per month
AND
during those 8 months they will also release a IS mech each month.
They will look at it during those 8 months and might stay with 2 mechs per month after it.

The mech part is starting around 32:30.
The Mauler is also mentioned. Concept art for it is being done right now.
