Or did the charger take up the mech slot for the month?

According to Chris from the previous event thread there's a Clan pack in October, so it's just a matter of being delayed for whatever reason.

I wonder what clan mechs it could be. I hope they're not the same tonnage like with Charger and Hatamato. Though that seemed to be because they were linked to each other. So I wonder if the two new Clan mechs will be related somehow.

Possibly two more IIC's, like the Pixie IIC and Whammer IIC (both 80 tons).

If they are legally prevented from the Rifleman IIC they could always substitute the lighter Glass Spider(Galahad) as a visual substitute. It has the same shape and high mounts.

Pixie is the nickname of the Phoenix Hawk.

Better engine cap, too, and the Clans already have enough good 65-tonners for now (meanwhile they still lack a good 60-ton Battlemech).

A combo I want to see is:
Fire Falcon: a 25 tonner with a bigger engine and more weapons than a Mist Lynx but no JJ
and
Turkina: a 95 ton jumper with a massive payload and a possibility for tons of high mounted hardpoints (think MC-Mk2)

Yes! I've been calling it that for a while, but I've never seen anyone else say it. :P

I'd take a Locust IIC and Whammy IIC. Literally 2 of my fave IS mechs but clan, thank you very much. :3

I just wish that there was a non-hero ballistic variant and not so many missile variants. Should be a viable gundam though, so I won't complain too hard about it other than the obvious Kodiak legs.

Also what's up with the IIC-3 variant? It's literally just the IIC-1 minus the missile hardpoint. Not like a solitary missile hardpoint is useful on Clan mechs anyways (IS mechs got Murms for that), but still.

The only variant I outright dislike is the IIC-2. Definitely gonna be turned into a potato Lurmboat by just about everyone. Really wish Clans had MRMs...

LOL. Kodiak legs, I didn't even notice that. I was too busy looking at those buff shoulders. That explains how they jammed an extra mech in the schedule. Used half of previous mech for the Warhammer IIC.
