But... but... I haven't finished mastering the Zeus, and then I've barely touched my Maulers and now I get 6 more mechs?

I was on track to get caught up before the Origins IIC came out, and now I'm behind again!

MOAR FIRST WORLD PROBLEMS, PLEASE!

hyped for the Nova D, it was something I wanted for a long time
hyped for cicada 3F, I just mentioned it a few days ago as well.
hyped for the zeus 9S2, I was going to stock+ it on the other variants until now
hyped for the Wolverine 7D I guess, I got no wolverines but I may get into them now I guess, also IS masc.
hyped for executioner C, it's ballistic hardpoint makes the executioner able to run duel UAC 20, on a 95 ton mech with MASC and twin UAC 20's you will bring lots of pain.

I qualify for all. so I am very happy.

I'm not sure you want/have the tonnage of dual 20s on the Exe.
You only have something like 28 tons (if you strip one arm) which is less than on a Cauldron born, that also needs to watch for ammo (especially if you want extra lasers for backup).
You can already use 2 Gauss (no dual UAC20, cause of the space, but its the same tonnage) like this:

for ballistics you can go 3x UAC5 and 7t ammo, which can work already on the Prime:

I have one insignificant question concerning the reward Zeus: Y U NO 6Y PGI?

Note: I think the 6S2 9S2 is a fine PGI made design and I have no real complaint, I am merely curious. And may have an obsession with Binary Laser Cannons.

I don't understand why some say that nova, WHICH BRINGS ANOTHER MISSILE POD to the game is a bad thing. Plus, is a gift, so, there .

the same way you fit 4 UAC 20 on a direwolf.

Nova sells for just over 3M c-bills I think. That's a decent bonus for not really doing anything.

They are giving us 9S2, not 6S2. 9S2 exists in the universe, PGI has not created it. And yeah, 6Y would be nice, I wanted it since they announced Resistance 1, Blazer would be cool, could do so many things...

I don't care about loadouts, i want pictures of how they look! :angry:

I'm vain and i only care 'bout aesthetics (ffs, i run Quickdraws, just because i love how goofy they look. I'd love them more if they looked more like the awesome concept art, but beggars can't be choosers)

highly unlikely
PGI did not allow you to sell reward Mechs last year, apparently that policy which also applies to the special variant from pre-order packs was apparently introduced after some Founders sold off an (F) variant then complained when they realized they could not re-buy the special variant (no I was not one of them)

Even though I can easily see people stock+'ing it including me.

The C arm for the ballistic is a huge bonus.

And no ammo to feed them :P I lost my notes... But IIRC the Koala has 26 free tons. 12 tons each for the ACs, and you wind up with 2 tons for ammo... That's 14 shots...

Dispite the fact it can still do more damage then most light mechs in a much shorter time with said 14 shots- the thing is that pod space is not a limit as you can do more then just remove equipment such as ams/ weapons/ etc.

Oh, I agree. I'm looking forward to my new Koala, and especially my new Nova. Just gotta be realistic on the Koala though. It's a fine mech, but a ballistic platform it is not.

The Cicada is going to be the IS Shadowcat. Actually, it will jump BETTER than the Shadowcat, which is kind of terrifying, and sounds fun :P Don't care much about the Zeus and the Wolverine... But I am glad I get them n.n Who knows, they might surprise me!

Dude, the Cicada jumps 120 meters (rounded down), it jumps higher then the arctic cheetah, mist lynx, raven, jenner, wolverine, shadowcat, summoner, and the spider.

However an identical parrelel it is not- can't use gauss realistically or on that build, got no ballistics for the JJ variant and only energy- 4 energy, most people seems to play it with 2 er large lasers or 4 medium pulse, both not the most common build for a shadowcat but however there are 2 large pulse builds I must admit.

Is there any chance that the wolverine will have its hand and lower arm actuators removed so it can run dual UACs?
