Medium mechs gain more utility, in turn become more useful?

+1 Module slot each? Unless it's a variant already seen as viable or that would become "too good" with 1 more module slot.

Thoughts?

This would make little difference to some mechs.

Also modules are an end game thing - for newbies this means nothing except they can stack on more consumable i guess.

I do not think that will solve the problems with mediums but it is a small balancing options on some chassis i would agree.

So, you mean these mediums would come with the Seismic Wallhack™ as a standard feature?

I'm sold on that.

Sounds bad. The YLW isn't some sort of beast because it has an extra module slot.

If we get more modules of the power level of the Seismic Sensor, it might help. If Seismic sensor remains an outlier... I am not sure it will suffice.

Personally, I would like more modules somewhere in between Seismic Sensors and the rest. And than extra module slots might help mediums.

I would actually suggest to add 2 to lights and 1 to mediums, and give the low-end on the scale (20 tons for lights, 40 tons on mediums) one more, and the ones on the high end (35 tons for heavies, 55 tons for mediums) one less.

"Sir? Ummm, ummm! Can we, maybe, perhaps, since we are doing more module slots and all, get another slot for the much beleaguered Stalker Chassis... please sir?" ;)
