Obviously you haven't read it, not surprised from a surat. IS will get BOTH techs. I'd love IS AC5s, id throw out those utlra's in a sec...

The Innersphere welcomes you with open arms....

I am only wondering about a few minor details such as the lbx-20 slots. 11 per TT, but will it be 10 for flexibility? Hvy gauss will be interesting as well. Damage. Etc. A preliminary outline would be nice of what we can some what expect. Also I wonder if some of the current weapons will have heat or damage adjustments. I am thinking of you mr med Laser. Back to 3 heat with you?

I will not buy anything until the clans add as many weapons! This is not fair. I love clans.

I came running to the forum to see the Clan Salt Mines. Innersphere basically will get the Technology the clans have been using this whole time and people are complaining that the field is being leveled ?

well, they could have added IPPCs for clans. i for one am propably going to enjoy rocket launchers on my IS mechs, though.

Now now, we do get the micro pulse.. wow.. elemental weapons. Gotta drop my Large pulses for those 3 whole dmg....

[New Breed]

don't see much reason to stay clan after those tech updates

[Sigmar Sich]

I was expecting less, honestly. I'm pleasantly surprised. I really wasn't expecting devs to make Rocket launchers, ATMs, etc.
I would grab Uziel to support devs, nice lyran mech, but honestly, i just can't hold any more 50-tonners, and i have no wish to sell old mech i had since beta. I think i'll better buy MC.
UPD: I however afraid of this

However, it should be noted that this list and its descriptions are provisional and may change for the sake of game balance as they continue through the design and testing process.

So it is possible, for example, Rocket launchers or something, to get buried by bloody whiners. As many features was buried before (some - very-very recently), and some of them - permanently.

[BrunoSSace]

This is great. So many claners will cry. Thank you for the new tech. I am so excited. I vote yes for closer tech balance.

[shameless]

maybe this fill get them to fix clan ac's

[Cowboy1]

These changes will be nice. Although I'm hoping that with these new weapons the nerf to clan laser heat and heat sinks will go away.

[Felicitatem Parco]

I bought my Annihilator!!! Yay! Thank you!!

[stealthraccoon]

Urbanmech -R68 CONFIRMED!

Well, what about killing Spheroids with our OLD weapons and make them run to daddy Russ and whine for even more "balancing"?

You mean like the IS small laser that we have been stuck with for years?

[AngrySpartan]

Ehhmm...where is clan RACs and HAGs??? Where is IS MMLs?
ER Pulse/X-pulse lasers?
AP gauss rifles? (Yes, I want that NovaCat with 8 ballistics!)

Nevermind, fix skill tree first...

[Jay Leon Hart]

Heavy/Light Gauss? CHECK!
Heavy/Light/Snub-Nose PPCs? CHECK!
MRMs? CHECK!
Heavy/Micro Lasers? CHECK!
LAMS? CHECK!

Now, I just need those Bombast and Binary Lasers (and the Skill Tree fix)

[VonBruinwald]

Would have liked to see the Light ACs but I'm definitely not complaining.

I might need to break out the tequila and limes given that the I.S. finally have a tech' edge to make up for their shortcomings.

[Lily from animove]

saw the first mech and was like:

kill it kill it with flamers



seriously it is sooo ugly 10/10 work because uziel always was ugly
Then saw the pregomech and made had a microhype. - until I saw it's IS mech. So very much instatnly failed my wallet to hype too.


but laser ams and heavy machine gun is soem stuff i am interested in.

Stealth armor however, I feel stuff here cna go very wrong. ecm is already a straneg cisntruct now buffing that with an armor type. well, lets see.

This may be a big part of the reason they have started reducing IS weapon quirks in recent testing. IS will have new tricks, Clans will still have more damage+range/ton on most gear. Really looking forward to the ATMs on my clan mechs (especially if they remember the free Artemis and make the clusters/locks REALLY tight!).

And nice as some of those new IS toys will be, the tonnage/crit requirements on some of them are NASTY. The IS LB-20 takes 11 slots, can't use that in ANY arm (since no arm to torso crit sharing like TT) or with the XL or Light engine on ANY mech.
