Can some one point me to info on the mechs themselves like hardpoints etc? Most likely going to complete the lootbags today and would like to compare the mechs before I make a choice.

No info on the S variant of the Mystlynx or Shadow Cat, what makes them different than the regular prime versions? Does let me rule out the Crab as it's just another all laser variant and I have the Resistance pack with all the crabs but the Hero.

Are these the same S variants can there be different S variants? Would be nice to see info on these exact mechs from PGI.

They're exactly the same as the champion loadouts except its a cbill bonus instead of an xp bonus. Also it has the default pattern and colors of the steam packs (year 2), so hot rod pattern with the black, red and orange colors.

Actually they're not the exactly the same as the prime versions/ They're the champion versions of each mech. While the shadow cat and myst lynx were built around the prime base center pod, the other omni pods were different so they don't have the set of 8 quirks, and they have different weapon hardpoints and configurations. The crab champion isn't the base model variant for the chassis, and the panther while it is based on the base variant, its not the same equipment as the stock version comes with. They were all also designed to those weapon/equipment configurations at a time that their quirks were different so like many champion versions today, they're no longer what's meta for the chassis. For example if you want a twin PPC panther, the 9R is a better choice with its higher PPC velocity quirk. Similarly that particular crab champion works much better with 6 medium pulse and doesn't need to be limited by an XL engine then. This configuration is more survivable with better firepower for a brawling medium.
