so with timeline update going to 3062, to 3067, there's a bit of battle mechs that also passes, but since the old timeline was 3054 (55?) correct me if I'm wrong, that means a lot of mechs in between could be introduced.

so my question is, what mechs from the timeline that would never be introduced because of it, are now possible with the advancement.

I really wanna see Arctic Wolf, the orginal variant, not MW4

Argus

Vulture Mk. II

It's an oddball. It's pretty much an exact copy of the vulture but was built in the inner sphere. Love those articulating nose guns and the beefer look compared to the original [not MWO] vulture. It was the vulture in MW4

As an IS Player. I must say I like the look of the Nova Cat. But if I had to choose I want the Argus. It just has such an interesting look.

The remaining 'Mech from TROs 3025, 2750 and 3050. Numerous 'Mechs from before the timejump point I want just as much, would hate if its all newer stuff only, especially as now we have two upcoming BattleTech games and such releases could use.

I am completely baffled as to why PGI had skipped over the Longbow, and the Blood Kite. Anyway, with the timeline jump, I hope to see the Templar. It just looks cool, and I am most at home with 85 ton mechs.

MW4 did a decent rendition of it, but I want those badass shoulder guards in the original TRO.

I think the fire moth is too fast for the engine....unless they get rid of the sprint function

It's the only mech to use Clan MASC Mk.1, so the values of Clan MASC Mk.1 can be tuned to fit the Fire Moth. It goes 174.2 with Speed Tweak, which is only 3 kph higher than the Commando used to be (and we've had a lot of netcode improvements since the time of the 171 kph Commando, so who knows if the servers can handle even up to 180 kph... PGI has kept their lips shut). The speed bonus could even be completely removed from Clan MASC Mk.1 and leave the acceleration bonuses, and it would be fine for the Fire Moth.

Mechs that actually had a role in the FCCW.
Mechs that actually provide powerful additions to the IS.
You know, unlike the Uziel and the Annihilator.

This list is not too short; let me just highlight Fafnir and Nightstar.
