Was looking at the new Gauntlet mech pack that released today, in particular i was apreciating the new decal


If you scan the QR code on there it will take you to the ShadowHawk IIC sarna page, any one else think this is a hint about what the next mech will be?

That would be disappointing. Just another obscure and boring low-end medium 'Mech that runs lasers or lasers with missiles ... just like other similar 'Mechs.

There are already Shadow Cat and Ice Ferret available. And if you add 5 tons, you can buy Hunchback IIC or Huntsman.

They added Legendary Shadow Cat just a month ago.

EDIT:
But thanks for noticing and posting this detail.

Bummer, but good on you for spotting that, its the kind of marketing you have to dig!

Shadowhawk IIC is interesting. It's a mech in which I really don't remember being in any mechwarrior games but maybe someone can correct me if I'm wrong. Can't wait to see it's design from PGI.

My personal choices would have been the Grendel and/or the Septicemia (Pariah) since I think they offer more interesting loadouts that mix ballistic, energy and missile hardpoints with the various omnimech configurations. Grendel would be awesome because it would be pretty tanky for a medium and the Pariah has some very nasty configurations.

The other two clan mechs I would like to see added sometime in the future would be the Turkina and the Kingfisher since we had a Ghost Bear expansion recently. Could be whatever be the next featured captured clan mech in the next DLC.

Need Hellion, Grendel, Pariah, and Kingfisher

Quite happy to see the ShadHawk IIC get it spotlight since it be the first time it ever be released on a mechwarrior title besides a mod on mw5 mercs, while there other options it fills out the 45 ton role in the clan line up and it's a battlemech so it fills in another spot that was only held by the shadow cat Omni mech.
