Well honestly your poll is a bit on the small side still so I'm not sure it'll have the influence Gas's poll has had.
Doubtful until the HG issues are resolved.

That's a very nice way of telling me my polls are pointless ^^ But you're probably right. On Gas's poll the Hellfire was actually doing even worse than on mine, but it has been added very late, which makes the votes rather vacuous.

Is there a new HG issue? We did get the Marauder, Warhammer, Rifleman, Archer & Phoenix Hawk after all, so I thought the HG bullship is off the table?

How does wierdo like me vote on mechs of which 98 percent chasis he has never heard of in his life ?

If you've got too much spare time you can have a look at https://mykepantera.github.io/. All mech variants of chassis' with at least 3 variants in our current timeline have an overview of what they bring stock and the hardpoints PGI might choose for them. The assault section is unfortunately still under construction. And the hardpoints are pure speculation, but the loadout is aimed to be accurate. There will be mistakes though! Oh and when you click the mech image you'll get directly to the sarna page for the given mech.

Sorry bro, just being honest.

Yeah there was another issue brought up last year. It might be over in another 6 months or so.

Just because it has an XL doesn't make it bad. XL is not an automatic bad mech

I've updated the Heavy Mech poll after the announcement of the Champion. I didn't expect it and unfortunately it doesn't appeal to me visually, but still happy about it's addition.

So the next mech will probably be a Clan medium mech (see Medium Mech poll).
Since the last one was the Black Lanner with 55t, and the visual resemblance with the Incubus i don't think it'll be the Goshawk

If it's a battlemech it will be either of:
Griffin IIC
Shadow Hawk IIC
Conjurer/Hellhound

It it's an omnimech it will be either of:
Phantom
Pouncer
Mongrel/Grendel

If I had to guess, I'd go with Mongrel.

That they did indeed ^^ And it looks glorious!

[Ch_R0me]

And shame that only looks so... original.

Otherwise, if PGI would go onto Heavy IS mech, I think that they should go towards Merlin (first true design after two centuries of mech design drought) or Chameleon (Iconic trainer mech from BT:TCHI).

As for Clans... I can bet my *** that PGI will introduce soon™ Black Python (Viper).

I think it would be fun to finally close out the original 3025 Technical Readout:

Wasp (NO F'ING LAM VERSIONS)
Stinger (NO F'ING LAM VERSIONS)
Clint
Hermes
Whitworth
Hatcheman
Dervish
Scorpion (I can dream, can't I?)
Ostroc
Ostsol
Goliath (I mean c'mon, I would love it, for about.. I dunno a day or two at least!)

These 'mechs would close out the original TRO from the board game and "complete" me...

I'd take this one (even without the NuTech) but the rest? Eh.

[GuardDogg]

Scorpion 55 tonner. :-)
Goliath, 80 tonner. :-)

[Aggravated Assault Mech]

I'll be honest.

I was pretty profoundly disappointed that the Corsair got announced and not melee combat for MWO in conjunction with a Hatchetman release.

all I want to do is smash

pgi pls

I just love the madcat/timberwolf series... Don't really care if it is meta or not

[JediPanther]

The only mechs my wallet wants is stinger/wasp LAMs and quad mechs. Since they will never be in mwo I'm just going to have to wait til they become mods for mw5.
