Looked at Sarna
So HAG is basically clans analog of RAC. So why pgi dont give clans HAGs alongside with IS getting RACs?
Civil war Time line and tech line they set is 3062-3067. While the first HAGs which is HAG 20 and HAG 30 are both from 3068, and HAG 40 is 3069 so right there is the reason the clan isn't getting the HAG.

except a lighter engine means you can take a bigger rated engine
and a bigger rated engine means you can fit more internal DHS so I dont really know what youre talking about
again LFE is huge for IS. And clans should really get XXL to help balance it out.
LOL like heck any pilot would want to use the XXL, its larger 3 crits per torso, and makes waste heat just from standing still so just to avoid heating up you need to shut yourself off.
"The XXL engine is the present result of such efforts, and weighs one-third as much as a standard fusion engine, but with some significant drawbacks in its present form. The XXL's light but bulky shielding technology takes up twice the space in side torso sections as a Inner Sphere or Clan XL engine of similar output, is five times as expensive as a comparable XL engine, and - most crippling - produces greatly increased heat. Shaving the engine shielding down to the bare minimum for safe operation, the XXL engine produces waste heat even standing still, and doubling the amount of heat for the use of a
Mech movement systems." Quote from Sarna.net.

Sorry, but this bull crap.
You have the option of using a STD engine in your Clan battlemechs to avoid the XL penalties. Have you seen many STD Clan battlemechs?
For several months My Hunchback IIC ran std with 2 UAC 10s and 2 ER Mediums, the reaction to most pilots thinking I was down and out with the lose of the second box was freaking funny to see.

The Heavy Medium Laser is 1 ton and does 10 damage? wow....
Heavy Large laser is 4 tons and does 15 damage....wow again
Same range as IS std Lasers, and a **** ton more heat. as for ATMs if they had the timeline up to 3068 IS would have MML which is their version of the ATM.
