I have a campaign I am working on now . . . I will get through it with just the Highlander (when I get it), trying to get a Marauder and a Catapult- maybe a 3rd heavy like the Cataphract or Rifleman- and the rest will be mediums. I know a Phoenix Hawk will be my scout, the design is just too useful with its blend of mobility, (up)armor, and melee options. Assassin or Firestarter as a back up scout. The rest will be a mix of Griffins, Wolverines, a Crab, and maybe a Kintaro. I want to see about finishing the campaign with a 'medium' company of mostly regular pilots- they will get the 3rd skill but that will be the highest/cap.
No LBX, no Snubs, nothing else except the limited SL tech recovered in the cache.
