Hi! Guys! Just posting to get your comments on the Lite Mechs (the red ones) that RotS has been coming up with lately. With the possible exception of Irena Borjon, Aldwin Stewart, Harsha Miskovits and Clyde Joyce I'm not too impressed. I mean give me Yuri over Avriel (is that a choice?).

Anyway, please send in your two cents.

I've found the Uller to have possibilites, suffering only from an 8 attack. Aldwin is playable, though I'ld use him more for his command facet than use as a combat mech - more in role of finishing wounded/cripple units while my main mech attacks a fresh target.

Personally, I've been fascinated by the RotS Ghost and find myself using it regularly. The 9 attack/21 heavy defense gives it decent stats for a 144 unit, but the optional alpha strike has come in handy. Park in water, alpha (pray) and you can get a restart attempt immediately from water cooling.

Generally, I try to land at least one arty salvo on my target, to bring the defense down to 19-20 so I'm rolling 10-11s. Given that a fresh Ghost can land 7 damage on the initial click, this can cripple a large number of units currently in the game.

Only other 'light' units I use much are Katsu, who is awesome though he's got very little to speak of once his hardened armor is penetrated. Marcel Thennes is a bit pricey, but he's well worth the cost if you can use his Camo against your opponent
