I also support that theory, but it stands and falls with the fact we haven't got the last IS assault yet.
I forget where they said it, and it's been quoted in this thread multiple times but they have said they will be implementing 32 total IS mechs. However that doesn't mean the chassis will be represented equally (8,8,8,8). In one of the older Ask the Devs I was reviewing Garth mentioned that not all weight classes would be represented equally on the field. Though considering the Clans invade with 4 assault mechs it's extremely likely we'll see at least 1 more to balance it out.
