tI heard from a friend this morning that the CRB-27 Crab (or any of its other models), which is a Medium-class 'Mech is goin to be released on MWO, is anyone able to confirm this? Beause the CRB-Crb is my all-time favourite BattleMech and i have not iloted one since my days in MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries and would love to be able to pilot it once aain, as it has many uses, from being a scout 'Mech (even though it is a Medium) and (if memory serves me correctly) iss weapons confiuration is x4 M Lasers? plus a slot or two for some other type of weapons (possibly a S laser or ecm or some such component?

Please, oh please, oh please, let the CRB-27 Crab make an appearance! It would make my dreams a reality to pilot Daynah Grey (would be my new sister Crab to my MW2: Mercenaries Crab (the Juliet).

Ohh sweet!
But it is a shame that I cannot buy one just yet :-(
Hopefully very son, they go down and we can buy them with C-Bills.

It ives me goosebumps just thinking f being able to pilot a CRB-27 (or whatever variant (s) will be released. Teat is how I because a reat scout pilot, 20 odd years ago and such fond memories of them...

The Crab has Always had a soft place in my heart since MW2: Mercenaries. It was always the first mech I bought after the starting Commando. Going to double the weight and an all energy config was a huge improvement for a cash strapped starting merc. :D

I was tempted to pre-order it but I don't really like the Wolfhound and all the energy boats just turned me away from R2 (and I actually LIKE energy boats, but I like variety more), and a la carte I find too expensive for what you get.

I have no doubt they'll find their way into my mechbay though, one day...
