Missing: Valkyrie, Phoenix Hawk, Archer, Warhammer

Where are those very basic mechs?
I remember there was some legal issues with those (and maybe more) Mechs with FASA.
The Mechs are missing in the game and they are reeaally important. Give them another name, another look, but pleeeeease include those mechs.

On the other hand there are King Crab, Black Knight, Cataphract, Kintaro available.
As far as i remember, at least King Crab and Black Knight are so called ComStar Mechs, of whish nobody should know. I don't remember when ComStar revealed their storage and starts fighting openly.

changing the look and the name would result in... well, new mechs with maybe the same layout, but in the end, they a´re new mechs and not those everyone wants (and don'T ask me what game it was, but they tried it and got a lot of fire by the community for it)

Hello.
This is a game called Battletech, which is not the same game as either mechwarrior, battlemechs and board games. It's a new game, which does not need to copy every single thing from the previous games.

Thank you for calling.

The orignal designs from robotech are not in the game.

Stinger, wasp, pheonix hawk, archer, warhammer, rifleman, crusader, plus a bunch of others i can;t remember.

HBS has decided to not bait golden Havest more than they already have.

Lawsuit is preventing it. Search and educate yourself.

The lore was ret-conned and the mechs from TR:2750 got non-lostech versions to show how they devolved as lostech became... lost. Gauss Rifles got replaced with AC/20s. ER weapons were replaced with regular versions, which was usefull as double heatsinks were lost as well. The engineers and technicians modified designs as materials became scarce.

The only way those mechs will make it into the game is if Harmony Gold lose to PGI in the ongoing lawsuit.

You can thank Harmony Gold and their money grubbing lawsuit.

Funny seeing you write this... just FYI, at least Marauder and Warhammer were scheduled for this game before the lawsuit happened.

as others have pointed out they are currently tangeld up in a prolonged lawsuite between Harmony gold (sort of licens holders for Robotech) and PGI developers of MW:O... While it looks like HG will get the boot at some point they are doing everything they can to drag this process out.

Once they hopefully get a atlas sized boot to the arse.... Thise mechs will be in the game... Well.. nobody really like the "riot gear with hubris" that are the stinger and wasp.. =P

The lawsuit is probably going to get bounced any time now. Harmony Gold doesn't have standing. They don't own the images they're claiming that the new BattleTech art is derivative of.

That depends.. they have asked for an extension to get documents from japan which can take up to a year before they arrive.. so if the american court agrees to wait for that we are in for a long haul yet again.. HG just needs to go bankrupt and disappear
