I want your opinion, here and now.
The only thing ECM does for larger 'Mechs is provide security in the war of information, and even in
that war you have eyes. TAG is still very, very viable for long-range fire support in the form of a Light spotting for LRMs, or LRMs spotting for themsevles. If you can honestly tell me that the changes made to PPCs to disrupt ECM on bigger 'Mechs isn't a factor, I'll be thoroughly impressed.
The
only time ECM is really an issue is when you have several Light 'Mechs running ECM in conjuction (Raven 3Ls and Commando 2Ds) and even
then it's really only an issue because of the insane damage they can do with the present skill basement that are Streak SRM2s.
ECM
is not in and of itself a problem.
