Found about the franchise thanks to you guys and Rageaholic. I got so many audiobooks of them now.

You means Razor's battletech audiobooks? They've been up for a while, and he mentioned that he did those ones because it's unlikely anyone else would try to make an official one, so they're probably safe.
It's shocking how good they based on how his other videos are. He's not bad normally, but I don't think you'd get the impression that he'd be great audiobook narrator either.

there are 2
he went to school to be a radio guy so he learned a fair bit about media and how to sound good when he wants to. he just normally likes leaning into his persona.
Iron wind has updated their release schedule up through the summer, and for once it's actually them updating it with what they will be releasing and not what they just did release.
Spring:
Carrion Crow, which is basically a 40 tom war crow with no LRMs.
Lighting, which is basically a Thunder but with an improved heavy gauss rifle instead of an AC 20. Creativity continues to be a strong suite of the FWL.
Awesome 8R/8T, which is the LRM variant that's been around forever, but as far as I know never gotten models.
And a new variant of the stormcrow.
Summer:
Metal versions of the plastic Battlemaster and Black Knight.
The Stormwolf, a clan wolf medium loaded down with masc, a supercharger, jump jets, reflective armor, and a kitchen sink, armed with a rotary AC5.
The Regent, or as it's probably better known, the Popemobile.
And the web only stuff is a bunch of ground vehicles like the prime mover, a cargo truck with machine guns and a SRM, the metal wolverine, alt builds for the carrion crow, shadow cat III, and sojourner, and a warship, the Defender class.

I unironically want the popemobile. looks like a solid assault and the lore makes it wonderful.
Everyone wants the popemobile, there's going to be like 3 Regents that aren't painted gold.

And the large laser is just perfect for those annoying idiots that try to cut you off in the morning traffic.
In case you needed to recognize the existence of a Plush Archer in your life.
Also recognize...the corded phone...
Some sort of portable mech fusion powerplant refueling station I think.
Hey it is May 1st... you all know what that means!
The Anniversary of the Greatest Battle in Mech'ing History!
The Battle of Tukayyid.
And no I refuse to be corrected on some other Battle being greater. This is a popularity contest and ain't no one putting any other Battle before it.

A new Fan XTRO titled Ghosts and Shadows has been released.
It contains designs for a series of Black Ops Wetworks Unit directly answering to the Camerons.

And more BattleTech comes to West Texas!!! I'm looking for recommendations for our lance's makeup.
The next mission for the game calls for us to go headhunting for the CO of a Clan Front Line Light Star. CO usually pilots a Puma Prime, and the star also has 2 Ullers, a Koshi, and one other UI Mech not seen before. The like long range weapons, and they will ignore Honor rules against IS opponents.
The idea is to have a light unit lead them into a trap so our reinforced Lance can take them out and capture the enemy CO. We have an Axeman-1N and 4 yet-to-be-determined 'mechs. Which 4 'Mechs should I take?
Requirements:
-75 tons or less
-nothing made after 3051
-must be at least 4/6 speed (though I'd prefer faster)

The Catapult and Warhammer are both classic mechs that fit that criteria.
If your downgrade the sniper to a thumper, you should have enough room to fit a looted 300XL in a helopolis.
