It should. It just takes more tonnage and crits on the heavier 'Mechs.

And yeah, in terms or survivability (pitiful armor), proper use of MASC (it will probably cary some negative effect for prolonged use), heat management (at least 4 external HSs; almost impossible to pack more than the standard 10 HSs + high number of E hard points)... the Flea will probably be the most challenging 'Mech to play in this game once it's released.

Because I am going to figure out how to put an ac20 on it.


Do it. As a suggestion, I saw a spider the other day with two ppcs. How could he have done this you ask? Well he had no armor. Literally none. But he had 2 ppcs...

And here I am, wishing it would have been released on schedule in May. Funny thing, opinions :(

In MW4Mercs, I loved the Wolfhound, even though it wasn't really all that great of a light mech. But it was cool, and I liked it. It would be interesting to play it in a new game.
As far as the flea... will it be able to take an engine bigger than the 255?

Unless they change the current restrictions, 170 is the best you can get. Not to mention that it would eat up over half of your tonnage and allow you for speeds that would make CryEngine... well... cry.
