Thanks for the Mech! Now if only I would find myself piloting a heavy..bright side: it glows in the dark (and in the light).

The Ebon Jag's Inner Sphere name is the Cauldron-born, which is why the chassis was chosen.

As for variant, I believe both Jags were the -A in the past. Jags often require pod mixing to fully maximize the builds, but the -A has a nice so8 and so does the -B (in particular agility). Combined with the fact that the -B didn't have a cbill boosted variant (S) and that's why it was chosen.

The previous Cauldron-Born 'Mechs were the "B" alternate configuration (1 'Mech) and the "Primary" configuration (2 'Mechs)-

The Match Score requirements are minimal. Essentially, unless you are really unlucky, every game should qualify.

Thank you PGI for celebrating the community like this!

The tongue in cheek fact you chose the Cauldron is amusing.

I greatly appreciate the fact it's an (S) variant so we get the c-bill bonus.

The funky lighting is just the cherry on top!

I think I'm going to turn it into an LRM beast, just for the Cauldron. :-)

The Cauldron-Born can run multiple LRM racks quite easily. Posted Image

Is it salable or blocked to account as the usual "(s)pecial" variants?
If it's useful for some reason (and each of us can have one), it's always possible not to redeem it...

It is a special variant and thus cannot be sold. You get the Mech with a Mech bay included, so you lose nothing by redeeming it.

Edit: Why do people complain about free stuff?
