come on i know there are more ideas than just this.

[INSEkT L0GIC]

ECM Interface Module (Enable ECM Mounting) - This allows ECM to be mounted on a non-ECM mech. It should have a high GXP cost for end game players.

Currently mechs that have ECM available have less Module slots anyway. This requires other mechs to have an additional unlock requirement to do the same.

Alternatively:
Give current ECM enabled mech variants 1 more Module slot, but they are required to have a Basic ECM Interface Module (ECM Interface Module Level 1) installed to mount ECM.
Other Mechs will require an Advanced ECM Interface Module (ECM Interface Level 2 Module) to mount ECM on it.
When implemented by MWO, players that currently own at least 1 ECM enabled mech will have the Basic ECM Interface Module (ECM Interface Module Level 1) unlocked for free, plus 1 free Basic ECM Interface Module (ECM Interface Module Level 1) already installed on that mech.

PS. You can link to individual posts / responses on these forums. I recommend doing that for each suggestion in the OP.
For suggestions from outside this thread I recommend you Quote it and post it to the thread as well, so they are easier to reference & to keep it active
A quick description next to the Module title in the OP would help for us "I don't know if this was suggested yet but.." types as well.

This probably doesn't count as a module, but whatever.

Make AMS an upgrade and re-work its ammo system to be somehow infinite (seriously, who runs out of the stuff anyway?).

Then provide 3 levels of upgrade for AMS:
- No AMS
- Flak AMS (the current AMS plus small buff). 2 tons (infinite ammo), 2 slots.
- Flak + Advanced AMS. 4 tons, 4 slots

Advanced AMS can confuse missiles causing them to become much less accurate and/or spiral off into the horizon randomly like a magic shield. Artemis guidance system will completely counter advanced AMS. Advanced AMS has virtually no effect on SSRMS and SRMS.

Increased JJ fuel or something that would change the trajectory (more explosive / violent take off) small recharge while air born etc

did not know about linking to posts, thx. as far as a short description: the list is already very long a short description for each could easily double the length.

will add in the post links, but i think adding descriptions will make it far too cumbersome.

Ghost Target

Allows equipped mechs to drop beacons off which emit the FFID of their team. Once targeted unaided sensors detect the target as the mech which dropped the beacon, but damage isn't registered correctly nor does weapon loadout appear. This is designed to confuse enemy forces, which should believe the beacon to be an enemy mech with which they will lock on LRM fire and waste ammunition. Beacon should last until destroyed. 10 health, 25% an LRM fired at it will destroy it (ex: 5 of 20 from LRM fire should hit the beacon).

Panic Module

Limited use per match. When used against an enemy mech, the pilot of that mech is shown constant damage being applied to his/her mech via the paper doll flashing damage to sections randomly for 5 seconds. No damage is actually applied. The idea is to confuse and/or cause panic in the affected mech's pilot.

Sensor Jammer

Limit use per match. Effect lasts 10 seconds. When used against a targeted mech, that mech loses any targets and lock-ons they currently have, is prevented from attaining any new targets and/or lock-ons, and their HUD flickers widely making use of aiming reticle difficult. Additionally, heat vision becomes completely useless for 10 seconds as the disruption being broadcast appears like a blindingly bright light when viewed in the IR spectrum.

Ammo Hoarder
This module increases the amount of ammo stored in a Mech by a small percentage.

Ex. Increases Gauss slugs by 1, SRMs by 10, not too much but enough to be worthwhile.
Maybe have ones separate for missile and ballistic ammo types?
