Clans get an inversion of prices, with clan tech being about as much as the current IS mechs (lower), but IS prices are like the current clan prices (higher)
ex: right now prices would be IS prices;
IS light mechs right now range from 1,000,000 c-bills to less than 6,000,000 c-bills
while the Clan light mechs are around 5,800,000 c-bills to 7,000,000 c-bills
so my idea is that the Clan light mechs would be brought down to about 1,000,000-6,000,000 for Clan members and the IS light mechs would be around the 5,000,000-7,000,000
(course the light mechs they released would probably be over 2,000,000)
That's the general idea
Idea 1.5: For lonewolf/mercs I was thinking that they actually have somewhat random prices every week/month, like they set it up so specific mech prices go between minimum and maximum cost and just change every week/month; might be annoying for some people though....
ex: an Atlas A7-D might have c-bill prices go between 9,400,000 and 9,800,000.
9,410,000 one week/month and maybe 9,724,000 the next.
Idea 2: That particular mechs are cheaper for specific factions, based on that mech being either primarily made from that faction, or because its generally used by that faction.
ex: The Turkina (a Clan Jade Falcon mech, lets assume it has been released to boot), it would be say 20%-50% cheaper for Clan Jade Falcon members than other clans/IS factions
another example could be that Summoner's, Kit Foxes and Loki's are cheaper for Clan Jade Falcon than other clan mechs
Footnote: Course these idea's can't realistically be put together without some limiting of switching Factions... but I wanted to put this out there....
edit: added different poll for Faction Favorite Mechs idea
edit2: added examples hopefully to clarify
