Missing lots of TRO 3058, 3060 and 3067 mechs:

Lights:
Anubis: 30 ton missile-heavy design, like the Javelin.

Arctic Fox: 30 ton Omnimech influenced by the Kit Fox, will need isXL buffs so it's not DOA.

Owens: 35 ton Omnimech based on the Jenner, would be DOA if Omnimech build rules don't change, but it is well known.

Mediums:
Strider: 40 ton Omnimech based on the Cicada. May have a standard engine but if they get buffed or it gets huge structure quirks it can be a tough little harrasser.

Chimera: 40 ton mech with a very unique profile. Was a common mech in MW4 so it's well-known.

Hellspawn: 45 ton mech which was also well known in MW4.

Firestarter Omni: 45 ton Omnimech based on the Firestarter, has good pod so it could be useful.

Blackjack Omni: 50 ton Omnimech based on the Blackjack, slow for its weight, but can work with enough quirks.

Heavies:
Black Hawk KU: 60 ton Omnimech, pretty much a heavier clone of the Clan Nova.

Perseus: 75 ton Omnimech based on the Orion.

Thanatos: 75 ton mech that was commonly seen in MW4.

Assaults:
Templar: 85 ton Omnimech with lots of podspace and good Omnipods.

Longbow: 85 ton missile boat.

Hauptmann: 95 ton Omnimech based off the Clan Dire Wolf.

Devastator: Humanoid 100 tonner, the -2 comes stock with 2 Gauss, 2 PPC and 4MLs.

That's fine, she's a solid around mech, just 16 kph slower than the Viper, with no hard locked equipment, pod mounted JJ's and Ebon Jag type hard point locations...

I'm familiar with it, its just not popular enough, but I put it up there anyway.

Thanks Gas, she's got my vote.

Looks like that or the Avatar will be taking the win. Hurray for nostalgia! I'm sure they will stand up to the Nova Cat that the Clans have winning.... not.

You know what needs to happen. PGI needs to introduce a 3025 stock game mode on the live server, not just in the private lobbies.

Im still waiting on quads, Rifleman IIC and a Rakshasa, which are all before the 3060 timeline.

Since we are at the point the it isn't Battletech anymore I`d pay 200 for a Mazinger Z, but since it is PGI pretty sure they gonna F%$§ it up anyways.

Pretty sure they couldn't add it anyway since there's no melee in the game.

Oooooookayyyy. I really have a problem with a few of these, but in the spirit of being unbiased I guess I will throw them in there.

Never heard of it. Did you know we only have ONE Clan 70 tonner? You should be able to tell that there is no way that mech is going to catch the Nova Cat...

Ya no doubt, nova cat is a for sure shoe in, big suprise there. Arcas would be a tank.

Gas, I get you have a problem with mechs that'll likely suffer in the meta, but let people vote for mechs they like. The Uziel and Annihilator were very popular mechs in previous polls yet we knew they would have issues in MWO, still buying the Uziel though

[SgtMagor]

dunno if it was asked to be included, but this would be a no brainer!

There's a certain point where its not about the meta, and about what is more new and interesting, but either way I added them.

I would love to have this mech and it's special camo skin should be something like



Aku from Samurai Jack and as something for the show's return

or

Akuma from Street Fighter

You mention both of these mechs but not the Sha-Yu? Really?

Wasn't really familiar with it, but it does have similar design language to MW4 mechs like the Argus and Uziel, so I like it.

[Malrock]

Why i have to vote in all the polls. I don't know enough about most of these to have any clue. I really just want more warhammers so i want to vote for the warhammer IIC . Would it be possible for a vote to be included for a generic category of say something else? Or can some one point out all the nice ballistic mechs on the list for me in each category other than for Clan assault of course?

[Jackal Noble]

thanks for adding the Arcas, nonetheless

Ironically both the Sha-Yu and Anubis were added to a certain MW4 mod, so I partially blame that for the association (though the Anubis borrows a lot of Capellan tech).

Welcome to how I had to feel Gas, you can't get them all. And someone will always have an issue with your choices.

Also word of advice, open up to more then just 1 vote for the options, have an other vote for anyone's whose mech is not there, turn off view the voters. No need to really care who voted for what.

Also, yes you will need to include.nostalgic options ad well....sorry to say it but if it is an all inclusive poll they gotta be there as.well.

Also post the link all over, twitter, reddit, discord ect. Tweet it to NGNG, MWO, and Russ. The Link needs to be spread around
