Just a casual suggestion, as I am unsure in terms of timeline, but I think it would be cool if the Wang gets the gauss variant hardpoints, giving extra energy hardpoints to back the main gun up.

Alternatively, the Wang 2 can be introduced as a separate hero mech, and it will gain Arm Swing again, but lose out on the AC20.

So you're looking for the Yen Lo Wang 2 of 3051 (which to me would've made a bit more sense to use). LT lasers, CT laser, Gauss rifle and lower arm actuator.

The issue however, is the Yen Lo Wang 2 uses Triple Strength Myomer muscles as opposed to standard. In MWO it'd have no effect since we already have its effects by not having a proper heat scale's penalties. But beyond that, it'd be missing tonnage...

Or not. Just removed it and apparently it didn't lose or gain tonnage. Huh.

Okay, n/m. I don't see any reason at all not to have it. (My god the Yen Lo Wang 2's paintjob is Horrible compared to the first one!) It'd just be missing the Triple Strength Myomer which has no effect on the tonnage anyway.

One could say "But it's not 3051."

Then again we have Atlas K, Awesome 9M, a small dozen of other variants that don't exist yet (including the Timber Wolf S)... and all of them are 3051 as well.
