...do I even bother holding on to the MC set aside for a wolverine hero mech???? :(

Anybody know of or heard any plans with regards to additional hero mechs or are they a thing of the past now with the big mech packs the flavour of the month?

I remember them mentioning that there's a Wolverine Hero mech in the works.

Can't remember where though. Might've been a tweet.

It should be coming soon, almost made it in May, maybe will see it second June patch? I am sure we will get a June roadmap from Russ in the next day or so, I would be surprised if that wasn't included in it.

They should just skip all the uninteresting ones. Give us what we really want.

A Black Knight Hero mech. With a third helmet variant custom geometry!

Preorder Gundams are the "new" heroes in town. Grab some deals today, and we'll throw in 234 modules and 32576347 random doodads!

It should also be able to survive losing both legs and arms. It won't move, but sit there on the ground relentlessly taunting the enemy.

Should get a Wolverine, then a Thunderbolt, then I think we might get our first Clan hero.

Well, Widowmaker is already in the game files isn't it?

Is it?



Road map up, it isn't listed in June or July... its possible he missed it though. If you tweet to Russ on Twitter he will probably get back to you on the Wolverine hero status.

The Malthus Summoner already is.

They skipped it for the past 2 Clan reinforcements waves because they wanted to give the already best Clan mechs even better pods while shafting the Summoner and giving it effectively nothing.

Too much work, not enough margins.

More or less. The Widowmaker build of the Dire Wolf can be created now that we have the W's center torso.

What?!? That Malthus tool gets a Hero mech before Adam Steiner! What's up with that crap? :)

What's next? Redmond's Mad Dog before the Adam Steiner Hero too! BS.

Adam Steiner Axman FTW! And seriously, if it is never going to happen, at least some sort of special Awesome (despite how subpar the Awesome is).

The Somerset Strikers should not be snubbed.

IMHO every chassis should have a Hero variant....

Maybe we can get Bishop to hit Russ up on Twitter....

No mention in the June/July Road Map.

It's a shame, I would buy a Wolverine Mastery Pack.
