If I choose not to max out my tonnage on a mech then that should mean that I can move faster due to reduced weight.

- speed gained due to reduced weight should be dependent on mech size (light, medium, etc.).

- speed gained due to reduced weight should be gained at a marginal diminishing return.

- it should not be possible to go more than ~ 10 % faster than today's maximum
speed on a specific mech

- gained speed should also be dependent on engine


An example:
I imaging removing 1 ton of the Jagermechs 65 tons with a xl 210 engine would give an extra 1 - 1,5 kph.
Removing 1 ton of the Jagermechs 65 tons with a xl 255 engine would give 0,8 - 1, 3 kph.
Removing 1 ton of the Jagermechs 65 tons with a xl 315 engine would give 0,5 - 1 kph.

These numbers might be way off, but I'm sure you get my idea.
