I am personally a great fan of the Marauder. But i also love the Archer, Warhammer, Crusader. and not to forget the missible boat Longbow. ((edited this. I hadnt read the unseen thread yet. and didnt want to be beating a dead horse more))


But all that asside. If I have to choose one. My first option would be the Marauder. If I have to choose something that avoids copywrite. Make it the Blacknight.

Commando and Centurion have already been announced. (and they aren't heavies, which this thread is about)

Black Knight I would say is unlikely due to it being a 'Lostech' SLDF design...
Orion (a very widely used heavy, especially in the FWL) is my bet unless they are able to find a way to use Unseen and/or Reseen designs.

2 of those are Clan designs, and the Clans don't even show up for at least another year... so they won't be available for awhile.
The other is Unseen and therefore unlikely.

Or how about tripping and falling on its back, breaching the comically thin rear armor and popping the ammo?

haha, I have this image of a Rifleman squirming on its back like a little baby just before it goes nova. You guys are awesome.

Hadn't thought of the T-Bolt. T-Bolt has a lot of good variants. I particularly like the TDR-10SE.

Flashman is uncommon and has only 1 variant (a downgraded version) in the game's era - so I can bet my Gyro it will never make it in the game.

Grand Dragon is basically an upgraded Dragon, so we got it already.

I like the Quickdraw playing style, but if you read the variants' stats... it's mostly the same design with little changes. So I believe it will not be added anytime soon.

My guesses are: JagerMech or Orion.

The vox populi (including myself) is calling for the Orion but to be honest, reading it's variants, I don't know if it is that great acquisition to the game... It has the same role of the Zeus (a must have) and it hasn't many real variants...

So my guess goes to the JagerMech as the next heavy.

Orion for me! :rolleyes:
Marauder, Warhammer, Archer, Crusader or Rifleman would make a lot of people happy.
Grasshopper would be good.
There are some heavies that i would not sit in. . . . Blah!

Here is a poll for you guys to choose the next Heavy Mech on game. Maybe the devs, touched by the number of votes, will change their plans and release some mech first.

Before voting, I ask you to consult http://www.sarna.net...ttleMech_Portal for the mech's role, variants and availability.


PS: no unseen or reseen mechs here. Forget about it.

PS2: no clan mechs here. Maybe someday they will be in the game but not now.

PS3: the last mech models in the poll are very rare. I know some of them are very cool but I would prioritize the most common mechs.
