Did that Wasp actually get released? I thought they just unveiled the prototype before the issues with Harmony Gold happened and it never actually went up for sale.

Sartris · « **Reply #1291 on:** 13 November 2019, 03:13:14 »

It was on the store for a bit before getting pulled without explanation. I have one to show for it

I picked up 4. Had some other money sucking things pop up then went to buy 8 more and they were nowhere to be found.

iirc the Wasp did get another production run for Gencon. Valkyrie too I think?

You may be thinking of the Valkyrie. It was set to be released but nothing happened and later we learned about HG.

I got one of the Valks at this year's gencon.

Anthony posted the detailed 3D model of the Atlas for his patreon supporters. It’s not quite as bulky as the plastech atlas but it’s definitely beefier than the current tall boy IWM sculpts

Why does it have an LRM-5?

It's an LRM20. Original fluff text says it fires 4 quick salvos of 5. It's neat flavor.

While I like the post 3050 Atlas for the fact you can tell the LRM 20 is a LRM 20, it's cool that the original art and fluff is still being recognized.

Except you can't. It looks like an LRM10 in each side torso. You have to rely on fluff text explaining it for it to make sense, just like the D. ;)

The MWO AS7-D concept art matches the 3050+ layout, but the in-game model has a 10-tube launcher for the LRM20 in the left chest. That's essentially the same concept as the original, double-sized, but still only half as large as the actual launcher.

Wrangler · « **Reply #1299 on:** 13 November 2019, 15:39:23 »

The 3050 Upgrade was clever when they made the new art, Brent Evans. With pop out doors where the hidden weapons (not seen in the older art) is located. Frankly it makes more sense, since real work machines have protective missile doors as well.

Sartris · « **Reply #1300 on:** 13 November 2019, 16:00:59 »

did anyone else get Update #55 seven times? ;D

oh also it's the pledge manager walk-through

ArchonDan · « **Reply #1301 on:** 13 November 2019, 16:04:21 »

I did as well, guess they wanted to make sure we knew the Pledge Manager is almost here! ;D

Cache · « **Reply #1302 on:** 13 November 2019, 16:06:19 »

Only 5 times so far. I feel left out. :D

Colt Ward · « **Reply #1303 on:** 13 November 2019, 16:33:45 »

Another 7-times here . . . WOW, big Update but that makes a lot of sense. So . . . Thursday or Friday, we will see when it opens up.

Empyrus · « **Reply #1304 on:** 13 November 2019, 16:45:22 »

4 times.

How long will the pledge manage stay up?
Don't have money this month...

Ruger · « **Reply #1305 on:** 13 November 2019, 16:45:47 »

Only 4 times so far for me.

Ruger

Weirdo · « **Reply #1306 on:** 13 November 2019, 17:04:55 »

Only once for me.

NeonKnight · « **Reply #1307 on:** 13 November 2019, 17:16:54 »

6 for me...and a Pledge confirmation email???

So for Galaxy Commanders it's Live I'm guessing :D

Lorcan Nagle · « **Reply #1308 on:** 13 November 2019, 17:22:13 »

3 for me, no email with a URL, and the request feature on the BT Crowdox page doesn't seem to work yet.

Colt Ward · « **Reply #1309 on:** 13 November 2019, 17:27:12 »

Any idea when we are going to get Founding of the Clans 1 which is about 3 months after the end of the campaign now? And since 2 comes out sometime next month?

MarauderD · « **Reply #1310 on:** 13 November 2019, 17:40:05 »

Just did my GC pledge on Crowdox. 2 urbie plushies later......

Weirdo · « **Reply #1311 on:** 13 November 2019, 17:43:27 »

How much is the UrbanPlush?

Lowly SCol still waiting ... but sensible to do it this way.

Thought it was $20-25 USD . . . I just want to see what it looks like.

I only got 5 emails. My pledge is in, and the process was a little bewildering. For the Khan level, were we supposed to provide information for the cannon character, or does that come later?

Later I'm guessing, as I as well get the Cannon Character at Galaxy Commander

Wolf72 · « **Reply #1317 on:** 13 November 2019, 20:59:24 »

So to be sure ... all of those emails are the same, right? ... Don't want to accidentally delete an important one.

Daryk · « **Reply #1318 on:** 13 November 2019, 20:59:37 »

Hmmm... only one e-mail for me, and I'm guessing my lowly pledge will have to wait a while before I get the confirmation with the link...
