Sadly, never.

Well never get the glory of 8 MGs, nor hitting mechs with Swords.


At least if they buff MGs to not being Terribad, 4 might be adequate.

We need an underwater map first to make it viable.

(I heard that's what the -U stood for, but maybe I'm mistaken)

Space, in this case. That's what the external liquid pods are for, JJ reaction mass.
Welder to break into ships, sword because Reasons.

Well, yes, I can read that.

Found what made me think of it, btw. Lots of other -U mechs are specifically for underwater operations. Strange that it's not the same for the Nova.

Well, you sure picked a weird config to wish for. We're much more likely to get the E, F, and H configs. But even that's a long shot, as PGI hasn't even hinted at adding new weapon systems in the near future, at least that I've seen.

OK, well there is some precedence for them releasing just an omnipod, (e.g. the KitFox C arm). So I suppose there's that possibility. Oddly enough though they did end up releasing the whole KitFox C, sans the A-pods obviously.

Look at the tech. We're not there yet in the timeline. Heavy medium lasers? Micro pulse lasers? Yeah. YEARS away.

Thankfully never.

I mean, the 8 MGs would be cool, BUT...

Liquid Storage Tanks
Heavy Medium Lasers
Micro Pulse Lasers
Light Active Probe
Spot Welder
Sword

I think I just threw up a little.

NVA-U(Canon) 4MG-STs and ECM-HD comes around 3077,
so not likely to make it into this game(for a long long time),

NVA-K/G(Semi-Canon(MW3:PM) 6MG-Arms and ECM-HD comes around 3053,
however as MechWarrior Games arnt Considered Canon we may not see this ether,
