The battlemech that everyone (for some bloody reason) thinks is an omnimech.

Much like the Mad Cat Mk II, it *was* an OmniMech

Tell me the name of the next map that is in the works and I'll care.


Also, didn't Russ just recently make some comment about not doing IS Omnis?

THANATOS IS NOT A GOD DAMN OMNIMECH

OMG.

[Don T]

Woohoo! The mech in the short teaser has rockets! I am so exited!


That must mean it can be transformed into a super LRM boat!

Can't wait!

LRM Boats are love. LRM Boats are C-Bills. LRM Boats are life!

Yah gj Gas Guzzler, you called it dude. I'm a fan of the reveal method as well, keep up the good work PGI!

[Steve Pryde]

Oh surprise, another heavy.

[CK16]

Well... It's gonna be a IS heavy with ECM that isn't a Cataphract, so that's something?

It's not a omnimech..
Hell! I always thought it was the first IS omni ever built.. you're a monster you killed all my dreams..

Raptor is the first IS omni.

Interesting, I wonder what type of lore would they give for the firemoth if they bring that in?

And never since we got a Clan 20-tonner.

Ugly mech, blech. Too skippable. Shame the law suit is going on, I would rather splurge on a purdy Crusader (I already have Catapults too) than a boxy, Volvo of a 75 tonner I don't need. (Marauder and Black Knight, TYVM)

Eh, we got the Cougar recently though.

I'm sure the Piranha will probably be next.

[Nelos Kniven]

SO HAPPY!! This was my favorite heavy in MW4. The LB20x... I might need this.

[pacifica812]

Was hoping for this one and had a hunch about it... oh how I love the fact my hunch was right
Where do I sign

[Grayson Dillinger]

I can see this being a full mechpack IF they put in the 3 from lore (LB20 in the arm PGI??) and the hero AND put in 2 in-house created (see Roughneck) Omnimechs. They could say the 2 Omni's were the 2 mechs that were built that the Steiners and Davions didn't want.
Full pack with reinforcements and hero.
They have already mixed Omni and Battlemech in 1 pack with the Arctic Wolf, so this wouldn't be much of a stretch...

[Athom83]

YEZ! My body is once again ready.

OMG.

"[color=#EEEEEE] The coming of the Clans and their OmniMech technology changed the face of warfare within the Inner Sphere. Within a decade, various Houses were fielding their own OmniMechs, " Forgive those of us who couldn't care less about the tech of the next mech when we want new maps.[/color]

[Hawk819]

Are they adding the C3 computer system to the game?
