Look at those hardpoint locations, AWESOME isn't it wonderful that Clans never have to deal with buildbreaking bullshithardpoints like 80% of the IS mechs? At least since the nova i haven't seen anny knuckledragging arms or weapons that are firing out of your ,,, croch like the knight of colour ,,, too bad i fri9gging HATE clantech and i hate this clan bias sh** all the way to the hardpoints and their locations

Well, with the recent release of the Parana and all, I wasn't seeing a new Clan light mech being announced so soon. Figured we were up for an IS heavy for Clan Medium mech at this point...

Would have loved to seen a Firefly in this game...

[Captain Caveman DE]

well.. it looks kinda cool, great work as usual.
hardpoints are excellent.

but..

it's not the UrbieIIC you're looking for, so.. hm.

[SneekiBreeki]

Oh look, it's an actual unseen Incubus!

Too bad, alex got completely rid of any semblance of it's Valkyrie/AV98 ingram-like head and replaced it with a bland ACH cockpit...

[HammerMaster]

Alex does excellent work but PASS.

[Buenaventura]

Hey, a mech where only the hero hasn't been seen before.
Too bad it's a mech where the variants are mostly boring.

[BrunoSSace]

Weird choice of a mech. The wait continues.

[Valyknir]

Dang PGI got me all figured out...


Light mechs are insta-buys from me and this one looks fantastic.
Thanks for adding another light!

Really hitting the lights hard... that's three in the past 4 months.

I'm gonna keep waiting for assaults, sorry ya'll.

So the Fafnir and Blood Asp were my imagination??

[donkey crevice]

Not the Clint I want! But still cool!

[stealthraccoon]

Oh my, this is very pretty...

It's not a UM-IIC, but I might forgive you...

No such thing as forgiveness. I'm getting constantly more salty on the bottom of the ocean...

Clan bias? You must have not been paying attention to all the Clan nerfs that happen on a regular basis. Yes, Clan Mechs can usually hold more weapons, but it is mostly pointless since you will overheat if you fire more than half of them more than once every few minutes for the most part.

I'm not the greatest light pilot (PIR makes me look good though). However, the INC-1 variant looks pretty solid. I would go with 4xMPL and 4xMG. Fast striker with a good peek profile and some crit dmg to finish off the enemy. How big it is will play a major role (if its wolfhound size then it'll be very fragile, but if its ACH sized or smaller it could work).

I think it might be worth a standard pack pre-order. Got a month to think about it.

Do you want to harm your lawsuit? Because that's how you harm your lawsuit.

Also, this mixes the original Incubus Design with artwork for the Incubus 4-The Incubus 4 had a very similar cockpit to this version.

[WarmasterRaptor]

Love the design! I got mines incoming!

[SneekiBreeki]

Aside from the fact that the Incubus was considered Unseen for the sole reason that it was a 3rd party design (it isn't related to Macross or anything that screams Harmony Gold for that matter), Alex could've very well given a more interesting design to that head section without outright copying both the AV-98 from Patlabor nor any other Valkyrie design from the countless Macross series and movies all the while retaining the feel of the original and combining elements from the Incubus 4 variant.

My major gripe about this redesign is the fact that it's sporting a recycled ACH cockpit which makes it... boring.

[GweNTLeR]

Where is my ANUBIS? LAO HU? SHA YU? ARGUS? TEMPLAR? SUNDER? Why do you keep realising mechs noone really interested in?

Thank you PGI!
1.) You have added a new mech to the game which looks beautiful. Variety is the spice of life and, for me a new mech is as good as a new map.
2.) You picked a mech that wasn't my type so I can save some cash for something that is.

[Xeno Phalcon]

Crap the one obscure clan mech they could have added that would peak my interest. Except for the stuff still on the EBJ I cant vendor I have zero clan tech now days lol.
