Could we all be so lucky? First Mechwarrior 5 (aka Mechwarrior 3015) which according to this article is still under development and not in trouble as some still thought, and now this? Right on brotha!

Quote
MekTek is pleased to announce the development of our Solaris Arena styled game based on Unreal Engine 3 technology. Does the idea of Mechwarriors piloting gigantic Battle Mechs, surrounded by 1000s free-birth Inner Sphere scum and test-tube bred Clanners, and trying to destroy each other, turn your crank? Well if it does then wish the MekTek team luck in developing Solaris Assault Tech.

 Sad thing is, that project seems to be either dead or on a real long vacation... :(

I will wager my beloved Warhammer IIC that this gets forgotten for at least another year.

HG!!!!

In that case I toss in my Warhammer, Marauder, two Wasps, an Osolot, Archer, and two pilots named Rick Hunter and Roy Fokker.

Okay, so someone clue me in.  Why haven't they just used the Project Phoenix models and gotten past the whole HG thing?  I'm sure it's been discussed before, but this seems like such a great time to ask it again.
