Devs,

Please give one model of each mech the niche of being a 'module specialist'. The mech chosen for this role should be the ones that have the poorest weapon slots...they should also be given dual AMS capability. Give these mechs a maximum of 4 module slots. This allows for the standard 2 modules and maybe 2 consumables if they so wish..or 4 modules total. Since basically all modules provide team-benefiting abilities this is not giving a single mech an advantage in combat.

Give the following mechs 4 module slots and two AMS capability:

List:

Light Mechs:
Commando 1D
Spider 5V
Jenner 7K
Raven 4X

Medium Mechs:
Cicada 3C
Blackjack BJ-1
Centurion CN9-A
Hunchback 4SP
Trebuchet 5N

Heavy Mechs:
Dragon 5N
Quickdraw 4G
Catapult A1 (glaring weakness due to lack of energy slots...particularly TAG capability)
Jagermech 6A
Cataphract 2X


Assault Mechs:
Awesome 8R
Special case: Stalkers. Stalker 5s by canon is dual AMS and must remain so. The 3H has the least weapon slots so give it 4 module slots.
Highlander 733P
Atlas AS7K

In essence, the mechs with the least weapons and/or the poorest weapon distribution (also the most unpopular version in general) receive a team-enhancing boost with dual AMS and increased module capability.
