Lets put this in perspective:
-IS Light mechs almost exclusively run XL's and when they lose a torso they explode.
-Clan Light mechs that lose a torso lose 20% of heat sinks & speed.
Gee, I wonder what faction would rather trade XL engine losses?
I wonder how the survivability of an IS light would be if they were going 106 kph instead of the 140 kph lag shield speed they have?
