I respectfully disagree on putting new players in a forgiving Mech, e. TAG will make the stealth mech targetable, but it won't turn ECM/Stealth off like PPC and NARC do. Despite their small size they can be quite formidable having a small profile and being fast. It has. my favourite mechs are: ecm fafnir with 4x rac2. Think of this change as just Seismic Sensor with more integration into Role Warfare)For a new player I'd recommend these mechs for learning: Timberwolf BH (2LPL, ERMLs and ECM) Warhammer 6R (very versatile chassis with a lot of possible builds) Urbanmech K9 (very sturdy light, with a lot of possible builds) Shadowcat B (swap out the omnis to get ECM and 2 ERPPC) Bushwacker (3RAC2 or 2RAC5)BAP can counter stealth armor in game right now , most streak boats and LRM boats with bap. Atlas AS7-K3, lots of bonus arm armor + JJ !Ecm, Light Mechs, Horrible Electronic Warfare Sim. The Ilya Muromets is a knuckle-dragging heavy that can pack a good amount of mixed energy and ballistics, primarily. This list only includes Mechs available for C-Bills.
