Wow Epic so glad I tried this game out, played every single mw title ever made till they wouldn't play anymore.... mw2 series was by far the best and this looks as if it will do that era of meching a hell of a lot of justice!!

love the old toys from Battletech series, but sadly the Bushy won't be seen until 3053.

Yep and that's unfortunate, it would have been one hell of 55 tonner.

Sometimes I feel like the only one in the entire community who is excited for the Flea.


20-ton mech with 5 spots for lasers?

Given the way cooling and lasers work, that should be an absolute beast with 5x sl.

Marauder is being held hostage by Harmony Gold with the rest of the Unseen.

If you can get them to release it from captivity, we might see it, but until then, it'll have to be a Sad Mech that never gets to play.

I hope they will continue to announce IS mechs after the 5# assault, alongside the Clan mechs. So, both Banshee and Zeus can get in. :(

For the 6th wave of IS mechs, what about these ones?:

Light:
- UrbanMech (30 tons). I know, I know... but how long the community can be ignored?
or...
- Firestarter (35 tons). Rational choice. Excellent mech, ultra common mech, with lots of variants.

Medium:
- Clint (40 tons). Only 3 variants but the fast jumping Medium that is needed to the game.

Heavy:
- Guillotine or Grasshopper (both 70 tons, both with similar loadout - but the Guillotine looks much better).

Assault:
- Banshee or Zeus or Victor (assuming Zeus or Banshee is the #20 mech).

Sure, if PGI decides to add the Reseens, you can scrap that list and bring the classics Shadow Hawk/Wolverine (much needed 55 tons mech), Marauder/Warhammer/Rifleman, Battlemaster, etc.

The head and shoulders resemble the Banshee but I don't recognize the weapons loadout.

what about the Nightstar, now sure the NSR-9SS isn't going to be around for a long while, but i've been hearing that you only need 3 variants in the same weight class instead of 3 variants of the same chassis to get elite/master (i'm not sure, but the forum search is broken so...)

it fills the 95ton slot, it comes with alot of the toys stock, and it isn't crap like the banshee is.
