essex! easiest vote yet
"Warriors, not war machines, are the backbone of the Hell's Horses. While others worship the BattleMech as the ultimate weapon, the men and women of this Clan see even this awesome piece of technology as the tool it is. We have held to this philosophy since the days of our first Khan, who knew that the value of the common soldier far outstripped the brute force of the BattleMech. It is one reason our Clan possesses fewer mechs than most, and has led many to underestimate our fierceness and courage. Our survival against all challengers when others have fallen proves the folly of such arrogance, and testifies to the wisdom of our founders."

Mechwise, there isn't a single one of these I don't need or want.  But I need more militia/garrison mechs most, so Sentry.

As tempting as the Jackal and Thresher are, I had to go with Sentry, since I'll be painting up a DMM force soon.  Hopefully, at least one of the other two will end up second or third.

The Epona already got an archive special return.  I can't imagine enough people already need them again for it to be worthwhile.  I know I still have 4 from last time I haven't gotten around to painting yet.

The Razorback wouldn't be a bad choice though.  It is a cool looking 'Mech.  I would still love for the Hankyu to get its chance though.

For 3 more items (And I don't even know if they are archived) I'll suggest the Heavy Hover APC, Beagle, & Nightshade.

I missed out on the Epona last time around, but if it's off the table the Hephaestus, Mars, Morrigu, Oro, or Shamash would also be nice. As would the Donar or Anhur. Likewise the Urbanmech IIC or Ursus. If any of these have won recently, I'm sorry; I didn't pay a whole lot of attention to the Special Returns until recently.
