To be frank I'm mainly interested in the remaining Macross unseen for HBS BT and MW5:M.

Stinger and Wasp would be great for the story campaigns. HBS BT was really missing some early-game 'mech variety.

Crusader would be legit good in HBS BT -- and I can't wait to see Alex's design for it. Good hardpoints, and HBS BT fixes the main problem of that 'mech in TT (i.e. it's an ammo bomb waiting to go off).

Longbow I might even run in MWO, loaded with MRM's.

The Incubus was never effected by this law suit in any way. The use and appearance were voluntarily changed not compelled by a copyright lawsuit.

That makes me wonder if the unreleased VMI IICs are going to be safe, since the Incubus is considered to be unused concept artwork from them as well. I really wish we had access to those under the table agreements now...

When it comes to classic mechs, you're going to get purchases that aren't based on the efficacy of the mech. It's all about aesthetics.

Besides, go to deviant art and look up Shimmering Sword's new Wasp. The thing looks dope. Not every mech has to be the best ever, right?


Imo the best one is the Justin Nelson Primitive Wasp WSP-1. It's way different, but still way more "familiar" than the official Re-seen versions.
