Going to go out on a hunch that ADM-DI is either a joint project of some sort between Defiance Industries (DI) and Something Something Manufacturing (ADM) or they fudged it somehow and it's actually DMA (Defiance Manufacturing Annex - Defiance Industries)

you may be onto something,
looking at company names i found,
Alliance Defenders Manufacturing(Alliance Defenders Limited) & Defiance Industries(DI)
now their is a mech both companies produce, the WASP, thoughts on this theory?

nothing else with this really matches with the rest of the document,
so i have my doubts with this theory, but hey its something,

And although it's way out there and the manufacturer doesn't match, "Onslaught" is 9 letters and Solaris is on the way.

If it's a Wasp, I'm done.

This is for you English-speakers: "So far, cost ...........................................d 431,382,995 C-Bills"

What could the word, or maybe frase, ending with -d before the listed amount of C-Bills be?

Hammer, Anvil, and Toyama all seem too short to occupy the blanked-out space.

And I swear, it better not be a Buccaneer.

the buccaneer has a hatchet though, maybe theyre adding melee finally


it has to be free worlds defense industries. none of the other defense industries companies exist or make battlemechs.

and the only two mechs that around around 9 letters are the buccaneer and archangel and the archangel has too many weapons that dont exist.

so its gotta be the buccaneer lol

Light AC2 & Light AC5 could greatly help IS Medium and Heavy Dakka mechs,
as well as give more options to build with(an HBK-4G with 3 LAC5s could be rather cool)

If it is DI and not FWDI, maybe it's the Axman? Either way, I'm suddenly very much hoping that it's an ax mech of some kind.

Can some one just tell me the name of the mech for the mech pack already so I can create the thread for it "(___blank___) is DOA."

You would think that after 5 years of PGI giving mech pack announcements they would have realized we would rather have more maps. Yeah I know we did sort of just get a new map but count how many are new and not re done over the 5 years? Then tell me do we have enough maps?

Could be a lot of words. Exceeded, estimated, calculated... lots of stuff you can bolt -ed onto, at the very least. Hard to tell which one considering the context.

Can't sell maps and Solaris is on the way.

cost for 100 chassis exceeded 431 million

with expected 100-ish more millions.

Which is almost right cost for 100 Scorpions, with 12S model produces by Defiance Industries in our timeline with LFE engine.

PS 100 chassis is just a guess.

Don't you have to follow those words with at, to be, or something else when there's a listed amount of C-Bills next to it?

Now that's more like it!

Unfortunately the listed amount of C-Bills doesn't end with ....00 so we can guess the cost of a single 'mech (if PGI didn't completely made up the number).

No.

Example sentence: The cost of a McDonald's sandwich has exceeded 1 dollar.

[Brain Cancer]

Optionally, we could be looking at a Solaris preview here. Prototyping and experimental design is the name of the game on the Game World, and would explain the immense cost for a prototype.

I missed your exceeded and that could be the word.

OMG I KNOW WHAT IT IS!!!
It's the death of Harmony Gold!!!!
HURRAY!!!

[Hit the Deck]

It's a new game mode involving a Superheavymech which the players obviously can't own.

[MrMadguy]

Dunno, what this document about, but after reading it first thing, that had come to my mind - they'll shift Nightstar (and/or some other packs) MC/CB release to earlier dates, as they've done with MCII.

Don't a lot celestials have melee weapons as well as different gyros, chest mount cockpits, and just crazy things pretty much beyond the complexity of lbx ammo swapping?
