"BLR" is the primary designation of the BattleMaster line. It is a designation shared by the the mech's lighter, newer cousin, the Warlord. This seems unlikely, however, given that there are very few variants of the mech that don't use equipment that MWO lacks.

Ok then it wasn't BLR. I dont recall exactly what he said, and im at work so not gonna look it up right now, but it was a mech we didnt have.

BLT ... BLT ...

BTL would be the Battle Cobra - Clan medium OmniMech.



The problem is that there is no need forthe Battle Cobra with the locked SFE, if you already have the Arctic Wolf in the game.

No, no, no, no, no. BLT is clearly bacon, lettuce, and tomato. Free sammich for all the best supporters.

So now we know what "new 'Mech" is the "BLT" ....

RGH-BLT - Roughneck "Bolt"

...It's disappointing but not really surprising that the BLT wasn't actually a new mech.

I don't think it counts as necromancy if the thread is less than 6 weeks old.

Seriously, this is just popping it back in the microwave for a bit, not picking off the mold.

And I don't think the Bolt (or the Ambush) was it. Variants are easy, they require no 3D and camo paint work. While I dream and hope for the Crusader (the number 1 suggested IS heavy by a narrow margin), we'll probably get the Bull Shark from HBS Battletech, since there's already a model. (Minus the artillery piece but possibly with an extra-arty-strike quirk.) They just have to make the camo schemes for it.

I only want one more mech added anyway.. the Urbanmech IIC so the clans can have the glory of Urbies as well. outside of that i'm not fussed at this point.

Most fan favorite mechs at this point would be just copies of already added mechs. I'd love new mechs but PGI really as a company doesn't seem to interested in working these days..
