Two heavies that I really liked in the past are Hellbringer (Loki) and Summoner (Thor). I hope we get to see both of these in the game at some point.

they are fantastic mechs, but i don't want to see mercs playing with clan tech until the end of the clan invasion, that would just suck otherwise.

I hope that we get the marauder, warhammer and black knight to begin with. Maybe the Archer too, if its good enough for jamie wolf then its good enough for me.

With the Catapult already in, I think the archer might be a bit redundant. Lets see the Warhammer and Jagermech

Hell it was introduced in 3049. The year the game STARTS in.

Marauder or Warhammer. We have a support and a fast heavy, now we need a brawler to even it out.

With the Archer you are never redundant! Bring on that double LRM 20 goodness and with 4 med lasers pointed forward and 13 tons of armor! Then it would be a game worth playing!!! :rolleyes:

I'd like to see the Orion, which I strongly suspect is the last slot for the heavy catagory; it currently lacks a stand-and-deliver battler, and one of the few others from this era that fit that bill is the Cataphract, a mech you won't find outside of Cappie or FedCom hands (and won't find much in FedCom hands once they ruin the assembly line to manufacture the Caesar). I would like to see the Cataphract, though.

I would like to see the JagerMech. Some dakka dakka support! JM6-S would work with role warfare however the JM6-A is a rather decent machine.

Paul already said you aren't getting one. Sorry.

Personally, I'd love to see a Rifleman. Strip those LLas and AC/5s for LB 10-Xs, and then lay down the pain!

Would love to pilot the Black Knight. In a few years I would like to see the Penetrator or Gallowglas added.

It's not a Rifleman if it's not overheating before dying to an ammunition explosion caused by a critical through tissue-thin armor.

I would have to put my money on the Orion, Marauder and Rifleman for the IS 'mechs. For the clan invasion however I would really love to get behind the controls of a Cauldron Born/Ebon Jaguar, the Born is really a stunty dwarf in 'mech form and I prefer it a whole lot more than a Loki/Hellbringer.
