Thur. Apr 5, 3049: Ad campaign of new HVR-99 AgroMech in a vast seluguwesa field on the Asdaya Unule Plains showcases IML’s newest offering.

And let the speculation begin..................

[Ghost]

Five years after the Helm Memory Core was decoded by NAIS on New Avalon, Iroquois Machinery Limited utilized the technology breakthroughs derived from the core to develop a new AgroMech design. The Harvester is based on Star League prototype schematics of a new compact IndustrialMech. The new Iroquois 'Mech proved to be three times faster than conventional harvesting machines at similar tasks. The 'Mech is equipped with a 15 ton capacity lift hoist on its right arm, which allows it to handle heavy loads of grain. The hoist is then able to load its cargo onto trailing cargo trucks. A combine harvester takes the place of its left hand actuator.

Grain speculators are having a blast with this one.

Hm.
*pilots a Harvester into Kurita space*

Does this mean I win?

[Balnoric]

Kinda gives a whole new meaning to the term "farming", doesn't it.

Where do I go for Beta testing? I would like to start testing.

You heard it here first - Dihm starts in an industrialMech

[Dihm]

VROOOOM CHAINSAW ARM!

Yay!

Also, you totally just confirmed that IndustrialMechs are in, time to tweet.

[BerryChunks]

lol.. battletech is so behind in the times. they need to get one of these! I guarantee it has more load capacity.

Seluguwhat? Is that anything like Tijuana Gold or something?

[Dominoran]

Does this mean that we're getting a mecha farm simulator spinoff? Because that would be great.

[Jake Hunter]

Can you get it in John Deere Green?

[Insidious Johnson]

What happened to the yard working classics in battletech farming? No Sears "Craftsman", no International Harvester, no Massey-Ferguson, no Toro? Are you trying to tell me Home Depot is done by 3048? Time to short 'em!

[DarkTreader]

If we're putting in 'Mech farming, I make a request that we also implement 'Mech Fishing.

Do want.
