The heavy is gonna be an Orion, the last assault is probably going to be a Stalker.

My best guess for heavy would still be the Orion, but a Cataphract would be cool, unexpected, and appropriate for the era.
I'm still feeling like we need more long range support, so maybe a Stalker for the assault class? Although I gotta say, I never would have guessed a Cicada for mech 10. I thought it was going to be a Dervish or a Trebuchet if it was a medium.

We have the following so far

Lights: 3
Mediums: 3
Heavies: 2
Assaults: 2

need more mechs a heavy or a assault
my guess is one of the following

heavy
Grasshopper
Lancelot
Cataphract
Jagermech
Blackknight
Quickdraw

assault
Mauler
King crab
Zeus
Victor
Stalker
Pillager
Devastator
Annihilator
Highlander



my really wanted mechs


Kingcrab
Lancelot
Mauler
Crab
Grasshopper

So you're 'guessing' it'll be any of the remaining 'Mechs available in 3049? We should give you the 'Nostradamus' title :(

orion would be nice for a heavy
zeus for an assault


why is everybody repeating zeus? dont you get it? it doesnt fit tonnage hole and you want to fit as many as possible when only 12 mechs will be at launch

It'll be the Marauder.

Or else. :(

My HOPES are Marauder or Archer (probably an even longer shot, as it's "redundant" with the Catapult).

My GUESS is the Grasshopper or Orion.

Those aren't actually all that are available. Off the top of my head, there are over 10 assaults and heavies he didn't include.

You know, like Crockett, Thug, Hatamoto-Chi, Guillotine, Bombardier or Champion.

Repost from last Thread!

There is a lot of potential in the first 2 Technical Readouts so here is my wishlist based on these.

Light Mechs:

Panther PNT-9R Oh look its a PPC on a light mech.

Firestarter FS9-H Try firing your weapons while one of these is dancing around you cooking you like a lobster.

Urbanmech UM-R60 This one is heavily underrated by most people. The AC/10 on this Mech has been the undoing of many Mechwarriors in the past.

Medium Mechs:
Blackjack BJ-1 One of my alltime favorite Mechs. 120 Meters jumprange combined with heavy armor and superb close combat capabilities.

Vindicator VND-1R This is a true Jack of all Trades with its wide range of Armaments.

Shadowhawk SHD-2H This one outguns nearly every other Mech in its class and time.

Heavy Mechs:

Black Knight BL6-KNT Oh this one is energy heavy but its worth your while.

Marauder MAD-3R Cuz nothing sais F**K you like 2 PPC to the face. Also we would lay the grounds for the arrival of the Timber Wolf (Mad Cat) ,wich is a hybrid of both the Marauder and the Catapult CPLT-C1, in the future.

Jagermech JM6-S Because its awesome and anyone who dares say otherwise is a ******.

Rifleman RFL-3N Less ammunition dependent then a Jagermech bust still as deadly.

Warhammer WHM-6R Because its long overdue to announce this Mech considering we saw it in the first Trailer.

Assault Mechs:

Cyclops CP-10-Z Sufficiently armed for any distance with its strong suit in close combat where its AC/20 makes short trial of anyone who dares stand in its way while weighting less and beeing more manuverable then a similar armed Atlas AS7-D making it a good alternative choice if tonnage is of interest.

Highlander HGN-732 In combination with its Jumpjets this one is highly mobile for its class while packing significant firepower in form of its Gauss Rifle.

King Crab KGC-000 Its ugly as Hell but 2x AC/20 do i need to tell more ?

So this would be my wishlist for future additions.

Best regards,

Jack Corban

You know... if they were to give us the Cataphract, I could try to do the Davion thing and make a primitive Caesar out of it. But then, as much as I love the Caesar, every time I take one in tabletop that Gauss rifle winds up getting blown up. :(
