My Nova Suggestion,
Posted Image
Now onto your Question, would a lower Stance make it better at shooting over hills? Nope,
it would actually have no Change as distance from Guns to Cockpit is the only thing that can change that,
what it would do is mask it better when it moves, lower profile would allow it to hide behind more objects,

this Novas arms are also just abit Higher up, as well as farther back than normal,
which means Firing at a target above you, will decrease the distance between your Guns and Cockpit,

My WarHawk with raised arms,
Posted Image a Simple Animation Change could help the WarHawks weapons get closer to its Cockpit,
this could be vitally important in its roles as a Hill Snipre as it cant pull Dire Levels of Damage,

Yes higher arms on most clan mechs would be nicer. Makes sense.

As far as the Nova goes, im never too worried about is being too tall to hide behind stuff, more about not hitting low terrain and if cover is WIDE enough.

While this will benefit the WHK, it just looks weird so unfortunately I don't agree with the suggestion.
