60 ton weight limit

[Vargas78]

Is this a new thing? My most recent mission i can't pick mechs that are more than 60 ton individually. Prior to the last update i had been mostly going by assault mechs so i didn't have too many heavy in the roster. Looks like the next mission is now going to be an extra tough one.

What's the reasoning behind it? Is it a condition of Assassination missions, as I hadn't noticed it before but it could be because the last time i did an Assassination i didn't have that many assault mechs.

Yes, new feature.

people complained that there was no reason to field lighter mechs, and there were already mods that solved the issue with tonnage limits, so HBS used the same solution. Along with crazy COIL weapons and some other special abilities for light mechs like the Assassin.

Random missions will have tonnage limits and minimums. So they are not all roll in with the heaviest mech anymore

I like the feature, caught me a bit off guard first time but it's good to have more reason to have mediums in the stable.
