A penalty beside shutdown for overheated mechs could be a reduced movement. Every percent point over 50% reduce the speed by one point. so a mech with 80% heat will have its movement reduced by 30%.

This would balance the roll of the light mechs to either scouting or fighting. If a light decides to scout behind the enemy line he won't be able to do much damage without losing his speed advantage.
The other mechs also have do decide if they can do 3 alpha strikes and not to be able get quick back behind cover.
But it give back one advantage for lights the might be have a better change to get ride of the follower when the follower is slowed down.
