That sounds good but I am imagining a time when these are your new Heavy and Assault class Mechs while everything 100 tons and lower are Medium and Lights. Finally the Steiner Scout Lance makes sense. The Lyrans are just ahead of their time.

You’re thinking too small.

Light should be up to 75 tons, medium should be up to 150 tons, heavy should be up to 225 tons, and finally assaults should be up to 300 tons.

Anything is possible my friend.  ;)

How in the hell are you going to transport these things anyway? I feel like they work as Siege Defenders for the Word of Blake to a certain degree but don't these Super Heavies have to be deployed onto enemy territory for an actual Assault to be considered Assaults? Admittedly I don't keep up with the Dark Ages or the ilClan era so I will plead ignorance but these things ain't that mobile or super practical.
