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

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

I am dismayed by the lack of Devastator(and a few others). Also, WTF people only 4 votes for the glorious Stone Rhino!?!

Stone Rhino hasn't been there for very long I just added it, give it time.


So far, overall winners are as follows, 2 per Faction:

Osiris
Fafnir
Nova Cat
Blood Asp

Obviously this poll is still young, just posting the update.

Its going to be rather skewed if you keep adding things. Not many are going to go back and re-vote after the addition of new choices. That being said of the four current leaders the Osiris is the only one I am not particularly familiar with, but it looks interesting.

Really? It was the "whipping boy" light of MW4.

Yeah, the poll has been up for less than 24 hours, and I said I would add things, so if people care enough they will check back. If they cared about the missing variant enough they also would have came out and said "hey add this".

Is MW4 Hellhound canon? I can't find it on sarna.



-sigh- long story short Microsoft didn't do their home work... way to make everyone happy, the Wolverine IIC Conjurer was code named Hell Hound by ComStar... The actual Clan Hell Hound was designed sometime between 3055 and 3058 by Clan Diamond Shark to be sold to the IS in the 3060's.

That's the best way I can think to explain the massive design changes between these two:

What about the Is mechs Imp, shogun, Crockett, flea, firefly, Jupiter, grand dragon, Wolfhound, Wolf trap, hatomatochi, champion, Hercules, tempest, pillager and whitworth.
We already have the Wolfhound, and the Jupiter is a Clan mech although it would be a welcome addition.

While the name is familiar as is the pic when I looked it up I just don't really remember it all that much. I have no problem with it, but it clearly didn't make an impression.

I'd ask to add the Coyotl, yes she is old as far as mechs go, but she'd be a solid 40t omni for the Clans... that could really get stronger with the new tech.

Yeah I had a thought that if one could vote for everything, it would be easy to see what is desired vs what is not desired, where as I find myself thinking I would like several mechs in a Class. If I get a couple more of the same feedback I will change it to a vote for everything poll.

Also, Clan Mediums in particular I had a tough time with... as literally before these mech discussions over the past couple years, the Black Lanner is the only one I had heard of that isn't in game.

Could use some help there.

Having a tick box for no opinion would also work

Kuritan mechs need love. Hatamoto Chi and the Nodachi should be on there at least.

Hatamoto is added, No-Dachi doesn't make sense at all since there is no melee.

And the Sunder is a Kuritan mech!

Okay but I'm pretty sure its not going to do that well on the poll.

Arcas all damn day.
3061 - 13.5 tons of armor -most a 65 tonner can carry, lots o jjs, decent armament, but more than anything a wicked aesthetic. Besides we need another Clan 65 tonner, don't we? I mean, of course for nothing other than to complete a 4 horsemen style ring o mechs.

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...

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...
