Isn't Niko Snow an IGP employee not a PGI employee?

Yes, he is.

But since we're quite sure PGI is really incapable of handling PR, chances are the new marketting plans were done by IGP.

Even so, I've run into IGP guys playing before. Some of them do work in the PGI offices so they might actually know.

Interesting...

anyway my promised psshha! No mech yesterday. Honestly I wasn't even really expecting it to be revealed yesterday. I just had that feeling. I still have my money on an E3 announcement.

One way or another we will know by the end of July or we won't get a mech that month.

My expectations are nonexistant after this weeks crappy patch.

If they do announce mech #20 it will most likely be either the Banshee, Devestator or King Crab. I'd put a small amount of money on either of the first two.

[Lonestar1771]

PGI, working as intended.

I am quickly losing hope. Whoever they have running their PR and Marketing departments need to be fired. 4+ Months of agonizing wait only to be left down by a no show.

Edit: I finally got a message back from Niko that reads "has it been a month already? I will poke the Garth." So here's hoping.

That Atlas was clearly the subject of that particular Banshee's keening...
"The story of the banshee began as a fairy woman keening at the death of important personages. In later stories, the appearance of the banshee could foretell death."

Banshee for BattleMech 20, GO!!!

You better find a leader who wasn't beaten to a bovine lethargy after so many months waiting.

PS: whatever the Banshee or the entire Clans pop up, there won't be much joy either (see bovine lethargy).

No! There is still hope - if not for this day, then for the next or thereafter!
BattleMech 20 will come... eventually... right?

Pretty much. We will have to know by July 23rdish... its release date.

Don't say that...

Who else sees the fallen Urbie on the new forum background?

I could be just delusional, but those antenae only match those of the Highalnder and the fallen mech in question is too small and too round to be Highlander, so... yeah + the unit in question couldn't possibly have a Highalnder laying around.

I'd like to have that as my desk top image. Can anyone get it without all the sign in crap in the way?
