Would it be possible to release the February 5th mech as a Cicada? I'm assuming all non founder chassis will receive hero mechs first. That is all, thank you very much!

If I had to guess, I'd say it will be an assault class. I say this because we have one for each other weight class:

Death: Light
Wang: Medium
Muro: Heavy

[Kdogg788]

I'm really hoping for the cicada as I've come to love them. As the hero prices are weight dependent, get ready for sticker shock if it is indeed an assault class hero mech.

[smokefield]

yes an assault would be the logical choice...although there are some medium/heavy that will fit well too

I'm sure one will be put in with time. Hopefully soon for you.

I'd say judging from the muro... assault would be around the $30?

[Kdogg788]

We technically have three hero heavy mechs though, so it's really anyone's guess.

I vote for a hero ATLAS with ECM It will stand next to the two D-DCs in my garage

[Accused]

Not sure, if it doesn't have ecm it's not really worth buying.

I mean the only thing they could do with the chassis is to add missile hard points to it, which will be useless with all the ecm around.

with our luck judging by the patterns.

My best bet is it probably going to be a piece of junk awesome hero.

[Rocket Puppy]

My bets are on an Awesome, as that chassis needs some love.

[Brilig]

I would like to see a ballistic capable Awesome.

I would like to have two AC-20s on the hero ATLAS.

[Biruke]

Imagine 20+20+36=76 damage in one shot in one point 2xAC20+4LL Just WOW in the torso of another ATLAS and it's history.

[Norris J Packard]

I am actually kinda glad they can only give us two crappy Hero Mechs from this point on.

[GriefHard]

I'd love to see an Atlas, but I think we either get a Stalker or an Awesome...

It is going to be a Stalker or Awesome (if it is an Assault) since the Devs consider Founder Mechs to be Hero Mechs.

A Hero Cicada with Missiles wouldn't be a total wash, but anything else will be. Any Raven they put out will be useless like the Death's Knell.

[Ilwrath]

No they will add an Awesome, like the 9m but with bigger engine.

[dal10]

i am guessing they are going to make a dual ac/20 capable awesome just because that way people will actually start using the awesome again...
