I would love to have the "Ankle biter", a Locust wit an ac2 center mounted. and 2 LRM5s. that would be a fun little harasser.

As fun ad that could be, I think it is too heavy to happen. A locust can barely fit an A/C2 with ammo to begin with.
How about instead... The dreaded 6 MG Locust! If the Spider won't get it, the Locust will.

With a quirk that reduces the heat of PPCs (even ERPPCs) to a respectable level. Even if it made her a 2 A/C5 and 2 PPC walking meta machine, it still is fragile enough not to be OP.
Well, they could give it a negative quirk to ballistics, but that would make my dual A/C10 Cat K2 sad

At the risk of saying something blasphemeous, the ER PPC could probably benefit from a damage boost or a speed boost. As it stands, the max range of the ER PPC is 810 meters - a range that is quite uncommon in gameplay and with its slow-ass projectile movement. The ER PPC is 50% hotter with, really, minimal benefits. 90m and closer? Not much fighting happens that close anyways, and you're probably not going to fall back on ER PPCs if you did because of how extremely hot they are. I mean, I see PPCs all the time, but I almost never see Inner Sphere ER PPCs fielded because there's almost no point. I tried using 2 ER PPCs on my VND-1AA, and it got less than half the amount of shots out that I did as using regular PPCs. The only mech that I think could actually take advantage of ER PPCs are light mechs and the Cicada.

I would pick the Spider 5D. The Atlas DDC is interesting but would cost much more MC.

Can't tell you all how many times I've carried PUG teams in this mech. Yes, carried a team in a 40 ton mech. I'd even say that I would be willing to pay 2x current MC than what they charge for the X5.

I think between Heroes and Champions, the lineup is pretty complete. I of course want to see Heroes for all the chassis and then for the future chassis to be introduced. The future, I wants it.

I'd buy the Cent-AH and Hunchback 4SP.
