I.S. Firestarter

The firestarter is the most fun light mech to pilot in mechwarrior RPG campaign. Enemy hiding in the woods? Burn them down. Enemy supply cache? Burn it down. Need to escape in a guerilla campaign? Set something on fire and hide in the smoke. Enemy marauder or awesome supressing your troops? You can add 8 heat a turn forcing them to fire 1 less PPC a turn giving your assaults and heavies the time they need to take them out. Enemy infantry? Roast them. Enemy armor? Turn it into a pressure cooker. Plus its reasonably fast for tech level 1 and has JJ.

Clan: Locust IIC.

I'm sure you're like wait... what? You could have voted for the Adder or Kitfox! Hell the Dasher is faster!

8 ER small lasers and a MPL. Plus it has an excellent movement profile, a standard engine, and they're cheap as hell to produce. Basically, it's exactly what you want in a scout mech. Personally if I had designed it I'd have given it 2 ER Mediums instead of a MPL for the extra range. Did I mention it has a targeting computer? Yeah, easily one of the most under rated clan lights.

C: Piranha.

Seriously. The Piranha is so beastmode. 12 Machine guns, 2 ER Mediums and an ER Small? This thing packs firepower like a Tech Level 1 heavy Medium or light Heavy, but it's 20 tons and its movement profile makes Locusts look like they're tired old men in wheelchairs. Sure, you have almost no armor at all, but you're never going to get hit either. It rips apart rear armor and infantry like no one's business and can devastate just about any 'Mech in the game if given proper support.

I had one take out two Bandersnatches and a Hatamoto-Chi in a single game without taking any damage.

Locust (because if you're going to be useless, at least look cool) and Kit Fox.
