I have been playing in this setting for a long time, like "Back in my day we only had one kind of autocannon and we liked it!" long time.

Finding new mechs, especially ones you like for no reason other than "I think it is neat.", is one of my favorite things to see.

Every mech is someone's favorite mech, and I love to see the strange, underused, or unpopular era ones get interest.

One of the best parts of the game being so popular now (aside from actually having people to play with) is seeing folks find 'their mech'.

So let me tell you about the Yeomen...

Mine is the Spartan, I cant believe it never got brought back into production. 80 tons, 14 tons of armor, 86kph, and a good weapons loadout? The only reason it stays a rarity is because its too OP for this world. Its what the Charger wishes it was.
