Yes I see, like a HM could catch up to anything other than the same class when it sees one.
Or just to give light combats a role it's not suppose to have.
small light bots are good for scouting ...
and HM's speed it totally dependent on how you fit the robot. Can they out run a mech ? depends on the fit of both robots if the heavy is speed fit and the mech is full of plates in the feet then yes the HM will out run a mech.
also mechs having the same view range as lights is a good balance... so why dont people scout in mechs all the time ?? i think simply because the lights have better slope and speed.
