Warhawk is another option if you want an assault, quite fast as well for 85 tons(65kph) and much more affordable now. Always take into account that clan mechs cost more but have double heat sinks /armor and structure built in, so you dont have to upgrade much on them.

Dragons are fat heavies. They are long range flanker/skirmishers for the most part. they are also one of the fastest heavies in the game at over 100KPH, but they don't have a lot of armor, and can be knocked out by good pilots/fighters unless piloted well.
If you want to try inner sphere assaults, the Atlas, DDC, D, and S, are worth grabbing too. Atlas's are good brawlers, and medium ranged fighters. Not to mention classic mechs

TLDR:
Centurion- AH / AL / A / YLW
Nova- C / B / any
Cicada- 3M (its the only one I can really recommend without any knowledge of your play style)

=> buying clan on sales is much more profitable, since their price includes the engine and upgrades.
But if you're buying for example a Jenner on sale, you'll still have to buy the DHS (1.5 millions) and the XL300 (5 millions) full price.
edit: for your second Atlas, definitely the -S (the one with 4 missile hardpoints). This is the king of brawlers.
Not exactly sure for the third. Maybe the K: the variant is kind of crap, but the stock engine (XL300) is expensive and very usefull on a lot of mechs (but not Atlases: change it for a standard engine)

I sugest the S and ether the D or RS for your other varients,
the S has 4 missile, 4 energy and 1 Balistic slot,
the D has 4 E, 2B, 2M.
the RS has 1B, 2M and 4 E in the arms (the D, S & K have 2 of their Energy hardpoints CT).
I would not get the K, that is more expensive because it comes with an XL300 which is not very useful on an Atlas (you will almost always be able to sacrifice a side torso and keep fighting with at least half your firepower before dying so an XL where loosing a side kills you is not a good idea), and hardpoints wise 4E, 1B, 1M but has 2 AMS to 1 on the other AS7 variants

Adder is a very nice mech, not tier 1 but then none of the mechs of this sale is, yet it still solidly in tier 2.
2x cERPPC and 5x cMPLAS are great builds, then you have streak20, cUAC20 and splat adder for flavour.
To be honest I don't play them much lately, but that's because I am bored of them, always I do they surprise me how effective they are in comparison to the bad press they get.

Having a blast.
Gauss and jets is what i remember the cat to be, not sure if there's a Ballistic RH and dual med laser variant i can use +/- SRM, but I'm considering hopping on an ECM variant as the final version.
Such a great guerilla.
