Most likely a Clan Light, due to the imbalance between the number of ingame Clan mechs and the number of IS mechs. what those will be, I haven't the faintest idea.

yes the urban IIC

Turrets aren't in timeline though.
However, a few simple examples could be the Scorpion, Goliath, Xanthos, Stalking Spider, Thunder Stallion, Bishamon too.


I believe you're thinking about the Balius and not the Thunder Stallion.
This is Balius:

This was to show us what won't be the next Mech Juodas ?

Nope. Those are filthy clan mechs. I don't use filthy clan mechs (even if they're quadrupeds). Also, one of them, the Balius, is outside the timeline.

Scorpion or bust!

Ok serious guess

Not just because its about the only mech I'd spend money on, at present, but because I don't think we'll time jump until mid 2017 and its extremely unlikely to be a 20 tonner

Crusader.

Or maybe Javelin Which none will buy because its big IS humanoid light,

or possibly the Assassin.

Well, Javelin is a 30 tonner, so it'd be the size of the Arctic Cheetah/Spider/Urbanmech.
So it might not be THAT bad.

Ya know, with the locust getting kicked squarely in the balls this patch it opens the way for an over quirked Stinger/wasp megapack...

Why not a Stinger/Wasp/Crusader megapack? Stinger/wasp would just be smaller PHX Hawk, and Crusader would be beefier PHX Hawk.

Still waiting for the Flea.

On the clan side, the first clan mech I ever saw I believe was the Black Lanner, so if that one is introduced, I'll be buying it.

Berserker show up, and I'll buy it, even if it means another Resistance-type pack.

The LGB-7Q Noobtrainer- er, Longbow.

Kinda surprised this isn't in the game, though I suppose the BLR-1S fills the same role.

Is the Uziel time line appropriate? I always liked the Uziel. The iPoke variant from MWLL was a favorite of mine!

Oooh. A month ago I would have turned my nose up to this, but then I got a 2R in my TT campaign.

6 Missile, 2 ballistic and 2 laser hard points I believe. Stock was 4 x SSRM2's, 2 x ML, 2 MG, 2 LRM15A's. Very fun mech in table top, even if people will just turn it into 6 x LRM5's and ERLL's.
