I think its safe to say that the winners of each category, and most of the second placers will probably be announced within the next year. Except for the Fire Moth, because reasons.

I do hope so - then I can find 5 new 'mechs for my signature! (Oh that poor, neglected Hammerhands )

[Gas Guzzler]

In honor of the Fafnir dominance present in the poll, I made a thread about it here. Hype!

Man.... Come on Nightstar! Pass the Sunder!!!!!

So it occurred to me that there is a IS light mech that I have long wanted that could be added now with the time jump.

With so many concerned with mechs being added to represent various houses and clans maybe it is time the pirates got their very own self produced mech.

Obviously at this point in the poll even if added to the list it will get little attention, but I still think it would be a fun addition to the game.

oof... that is a slow light... 97km/h as a base speed, thanks to the 150 series engine...

Likely engine cap of 210, would put it running at about 146km/h post speed tweak..

LDT-1 Brigand

That is if you wanted to run something in close approximation to it

Yeah, it might be a little on the slow side, but I still like the mech and I kind of like the idea of a pirate mech. It would probably be doa for most people, but I think it could still be fun.

I don't judge people's wants, I want a Stinger and Wasp, but I know they will be less than ideal. I just want everyone to be aware of what they want and understand the limitations it would likely have.

Well its winning, its up to PGI whether or not they want to figure out the speed thing.

With the way they work? Yeah, it's not happening...

Ugh. One of my favorite 'Mechs thanks to MechWarrior 2 and it's gone. Why? Because it's 2017, we have high speed internet, and they can't figure out how to get a 'Mech that used to work in a damn DOS game to work.

I'm wondering if any of the following might be added:

Mongoose, Vulcan, Penetrator, Galahad (Glass Spider), Thug, Pillager, and Komodo.

I'm assuming the lack of the Nightsky, Hatchetman, Axman, and Berserker is due to the lack of melee in the current iteration of the game.

Sure but it might be too late for them to have a fair chance.

In other news the Nightstar is just 4 votes behind the Sunder! If you don't know what the Nightstar is check out my SIG.

Well this poll has been up for a long time and those haven't really been mentioned. I can throw them on there, aside from the assaults which I believe are maxed out...

I'm happy to edit my vote to give them a start once they're up.

[Mecha pope]

Awww, no love for the Imp, huh?

I mean, how could you not love AN ASSAULT URBANMECH

[Requiemking]

67 votes for the Sha Yu. I must say, I'm impressed. Also, in case it may not have crossed people's minds yet, but if IS Omnis don't end up being a thing, the Sha Yu could potentially be a decent replacement for the Men Shen.

[Machinae Mortis]

Still want Stinger and Wasp the most. For as many IICs as you've included, I would have expected to see the Commando. I hate clans, but I'd probably still buy a Commando IIC just to have a modern version of my favorite mech.

Might make my own thread for this, but until then...

https://docs.google....#gid=1599258884


I'm building a list of every mech that could possibly be introduced into MWO, including all variants, their exact stock hardpoints, special equipment, engines, etc. With a simple column for whether each mech would be easy to introduce into MWO or not.

If anybody wants to shout out some missing mechs, I'll add them now. I'm focusing on lights first, but anything goes.

It's not quite as detailed as it seems you want to make yours but this list is pretty good for mechs available by 3050.
