I am just wondering what Mech's we would have to choose from being a Davion?
I know there is a chance to salvage a mech from another house or get one from a star league cache but I wouldn't mind a list of Mech's available to House Davion if someone doesn't mind making one?

[Adridos]

Lots of autocannons. Something like Enforcer just screams "Davion!".

[Arnie1808]

I know the Victor, Locust, Enforcer, Argus, Hatchet-man, Axeman, Jaggermech, Penetrator, Templar, and Centurion are all Davion Mechs (well they own the Factories that make them) Personally I would love to pilot a Penetrator

But there must be a lot more

[Kresten Youngblood]

I would love to drive me a Blackjack fun medium mech to play with.

Lesse...the Javelin, Phoenix Hawk, Dervish, and Valkyrie are the only ones I can think of off-hand that you missed. If we're sticking to canon, you'd probably also have access (either by default or at reduced cost) to most of the Steiner 'Mechs (and vice-versa), so add Commando, Firestarter, Griffin, and Zeus to that list as well.

EDIT: And the Blackjack, as Kresten mentioned.

The cool thing about the AFFS is, even before FedCom, the Lyrans gave Simon Davion his initial battlemech plans; So I'd imagine you'd have a good number of Lyran designs to at your disposal. Just steer clear of jenners, hunchbacks, spiders, panthers, and dragons as I know they are hugely popular among the DCMS and Feds might accidentally shoot at you.

[Gabriel Drake]

It's a standard mech chasis, but I'll keep my Warhammer as long as possible

Also, Phoenix Hawk for medium. And if they allow us the old Star league Mechs, a Black Knight or Highlander would be an option for me too.

Do we know if we're going to have Aerospace Fighters and LAM's in the game?

[SMDMadCow]

Popular mechs in this timeframe for House Davion are:
Light
Javelin
Hornet
Valkyrie
Wolfhound
Salvaged Jenners

Medium
Assassin
Dervish
Kintaro
BlackJack
Wolverine
Griffin
Centurion
Enforcer
Phoenix Hawk

Heavy
Cataphract
JagerMech
Rifleman
Marauder
Salvaged Catapults

Assault
Victor
Atlas
Cyclops
Battlemaster

To name a few. Most of these we either have or had production sites for, and you can get just about anything through salvage.
And at launch we will not have acess to ASF's or LAM's.

[Minatorc]

Also the Centurions stablemate Trebuchet (the good old Trench Bucket).

Personally I'd like our Lyran cousins version of the Centurion, swaps the AC10 for 1 large and 1 small laser plus an additional 4 tons or armour.

[That Guy]

if you want to know what davion mechs will be in game? your guess is as good as ours.

but i would like to say, "HAVE ALL OF THE MECHS!" (eventually)

[Capt Cole 117]

Yeah I hope to salvage a nova cat eventually.

Nah.. only thing you will get to salvage are Kuritan mechs.

[Barantor]

Didn't Q&A2 say we all had access to all the mechs?

But will the Mechs be the original imagery or the new updated imagery.Either way i'd like a Marauder & then look at obtaining a Mad Cat.

Will they allow Unseens? Oh to pilot a WHM-6D or a MAD II - 5W

What do you mean by "different types"? Differing weight classes?

Project Phoenix fixes any issue with the unseen by redesigning them, further they will have to go thru Alex Inglesias and the amazing reworks he's doing. Fear not!

[LordKnightFandragon]

^^^I hate Project Phoenix, they make all the mechs look ugly...MW: AOD, they wrecked the Marauder, Warhammer IIC, Thor..somewhat, Loki, they removed its radar array thing off the shoulder and made its arms all weird and they also removed those big bulgy things off the left and right torso. Alot of the mechs look bad because of Project Phoenix, that and the pissy ******** who own the mechs to begin with. If they are going to bitch about copyright and all that when why not get off their ***** and make a game with them, otherwise, just be happy, supportive and let the guys make their dang game, free of the bull&%*$....
