Have you guys considered using the Merc Handbook 3055 as a source of inspiration for how a lot of the mechanics will work? Are you planning to have users buy things like cockpits, myomer, gyros separately during refit phases between battles, or are you just planning a "repair all" button? Personally, I'd love to see some depth added to this section of the game - bringing a non-fully repaired mech with its disadvantages to a battle would really help bring the game to life.

Have you ever played the classic TT version this game is based off of? What did you think of it?

Awesome! Lightning/beam also seems more in line with canon. I've never been a fan of the ball style - particles don't tend to move slowly as a big clump, even though that seems to have been a trend in more recent mech games.

According to Sarna and lore: "The Particle Projector Cannon (or PPC) is a unique energy weapon. PPCs fire a concentrated stream of protons or ions at a target, causing damage through both thermal and kinetic energy." So my question is, ball or stream PPC fire? Would love to see a return to stream PPC fire. Also, are you planning on having PPCs have a chance to do sensor/electronics damage?

How much of a role will transportation logistics play?
