Perhaps this is already posted elsewhere, and if so, sorry I missed it, but is there any location that has the currently available/planned on variants of all the currently release mechs? We can go back and forth forever over what comes next ('Urbie' 'No the Urbie is Stooped! MArawdar!' 'That's not legal!...[more tolling]'etc...) and while that speculation can be fun and does, hopefully, give the dev team some understanding of what the fans want, I would rather know what variants of the given kind are currently planned for.
So: Catapults A, B, and C... Cicadas A and B... etc...


Currently Available Variants?

you can also go to the tros at solaris7 website. They are a little hard to find but they usually have all the variants and production dates. Just make sure the come from the tro not a fan boy making his own mech variant.

Sarna also has a decent listing, although sometimes their English slips.

I believe that William is referring to Variants that have been confirmed for MWO.
I am currently at work, but I have a list at home. When I get home in about 7 hours I'll post here if someone hasn't beaten me to it.

Variants of note:
Catapult with energy weapons instead of LRM (both PPC and large lasers have been seen, but same diff as far as the hardpoint system is concerned)
Hunchback with a boatload of medium lasers instead of an AC (Swayback, all-small-laser-build also mentioned. AC/5 and machine gun custom version mentioned (forumuserkiller))
Atlas with lots/all energy hardpoints (Garth said he had a large laser boating Atlas in a comment. It didn't work out well. May still be an AS7-D, it has several enegry hardpoints already)
Lots of other variants can be made from the stock chassis with minimal weapon swapping

Gauss nailed it. I've gone over the wiki's and trid to pick up what was to be gleaned from videos but there are some mech's that I am very interested in that are not in any of the videos. I was wondering if anyone had complied them with some level of know/or projected content for the given variants. Not just a cut past from one of the wiki's. Also, Grimm, thanks for the link.

No problem William. MechSpecs has ONLY the mechs in MWO and their variants.

So far it seems like the best available resource, which is sorta what I was looking for.
