It never ceases to amazes me that even pgi appearently doesn't know how their own hero mechs are named.

Or perhaps they're banking on the fact that someone less knowledgable might read "oh, the Huginn, I don't know which mech that is". It's better this way around.

You realize you need to have a sale during the Steam summer sale?

Otherwise people will have spent their gaming budget on Steam, GoG, Green man etc...

Except they know some of them, and not others (The AS7-BH but not the BNC-HERO)

It's just odd is all.

You're right, that is weird.
But w/e, it's still good to know what events to look forward too.

Well, this is interesting.

Event 1, used Pretty Baby, bought Wang.
Event 2, will use Grid Iron, not sure about buying something.
Event 3, none owned, might buy something.

I did want the Pirate's Bane and Sparky, have Mastered all variants of those 2 chassis except Heroes and LCT-3V.
Other than that, I have not looked at getting a new IS chassis. I have 1 Jager and 1 Raven but was going to focus on Wave 3 next.

LOL nice, not seen that one before. It is the forums after all. Can't expect better, which is a shame.

Thanks guys for the heads up. Looks like the next event will apply to me.

Hopefully I can earn about 500 MC in the next event so I can buy an Arrow, which is the mech I wanted to grab next. Though If I do even better I might snag a Grid Iron.

Also, they should run an Owned champion tourny at the end of this called "We Don't Need Another Hero"

I think it's great that PGI is adopting the policy of informing us in advance of these sales.
People that are complaining about the specific mechs appearing in this specific listing can't see the forest for the trees.

Advance warning is great! Missed out on the discounted Flame (or was it Fang? Too many Dragons!?) because I didn't have money to spare was annoying, hopefully will be able to set money aside to snag the Firebrand, Golden Boy and La Malinche when they are on sale.
