I would except only the 732, the 732b and the 733.

If they said anything else, I'd be hugely surprised.

Well, unfortunately I'm now obliged to stomp around trumpeting "death to Canada" and burn the Canadian consulate in Edinburgh to the ground.

No wait, we aren't bothered, carry on :angry:

Whenever I see another new mech being announced, it just makes me hungrier for more new mechs.

To me it sounded like the Nac Mac Feegle. Feegle attitude too. I want one, and I want to paint it blue.

Instead of imagining a female pilot in the Highlander, in my mind it was Scrooge McDuck!

Dear Garth
Get certain of our Northern brethren wound up and they do sound like that!
In my younger more foolish days i took pride in getting a certain couple of Scottish gentlemen so het up that they could not understand each other!
:angry:
Now I feel that I'll have 90ton Highlanders chasing me round a battlefield! :)
Good MECH!!! :)

I'd expect the 733, 733P, and 733C. Those would be armed with an AC/10, AC/20, or PPC. While we'll probably also see the 732 (gauss armed), unless they completely decide to ignore canon you will never see the 732b in anything other then a clan force. They were SLDF royal mechs, assigned exclusively to those divisions, which left nearly to a man during the great exodus. An argument might be able to be made that 1 or 2 of them exist in the entirety of the IS in private hands from 1 of the very very few royal units to remain behind, but that's it.

Hilariously bad stereotyping. I guess from this we should assume all Americans are fat morons with more guns than sense?
