How much points are available?
6 points for light mechs, 5 for medium, 4 for heavy, which brings me to...
YES ! A Mechbased game
Cooking a sheet right away.
Pilot name: Evan Dorendo
Occupation: Zero-G Engineer
Mech name/callsign: Multipurpose Hexplorer 'Traveler'
Mech General Description:
The Multipurpose Hexplorer is a heavy mech that was designed for exploration of unknown worlds. This model is old but still function pretty well, being made to last.
The huge main body has a rust-colored plating, and sports many scratches from all its previous exploration missions. It is fully equipped with a cargo bay and a science suite, for samples gathering and analysis.
The cockpit is on the front, and there are two arms on the side of it, allowing manipulation of small to medium objects. On the upper side of the body, there is a large crane-like arm equipped with a yellow and black stripped more recent Pneumatic Gripper.
On the side is written in white paint 'Traveler'. The name is barely readable because of the gone paint.
And near the name, there are many carved lines : they represent the number of missions the 'Traveler' was sent on.

Mech name/callsign: Vitruvius
Mech General Description: The mech is sleek and white. It's serial numbers don't match up, but they all seem to be for the same model. Which implies several parts have been replaced. It has two sets of arms.
Mech Sheet:
Light
1 Cockpit
1 Body
4 Arms (4 hands, 2 coil gun)
2 legs (2 feet)
Please include point costs in your design, it helps me manage everything. Coilguns, I forgot to say, are strictly limited to 1 per civilian mech.

Mech name: C.H.R.U.-5
Mech description: A heavy mech. It is quite robust and appears to be designed for construction of fortifications on the battlefield. It looks worn out. The color schemes on the various parts are slightly out of sync, suggesting the mech had been repaired many times. Bullet marks can be seen on some parts. Many holes are patched, but in a carefull manner, as if someone was very caring about the machine. The bodywork is oil-stained and there is a pair of large exhausts on the rear. The design is very curious, as it possesses not two, not four, but three 'arms'. Two are in the expected positions, but the third one is mounted on top. It is obviously used as defense because it has a coil gun. The coil gun appears to be quite new. The inside of the cockpit is filled with leather, brass and old-style displays and guages. The seat is heated, and there is surprisingly good AC onboard. Seems like someone really liked this mech.

You're over by 2: what happens with heavy mechs is that armor or extra hull takes up point-space.

Mech name: There doesn't appear to be an actual factory name or serial number anywhere but someone has painted Tin Can on the inside of the cockpit.
Mechdescription the mech is of a medium weight clearly it was designed to be somewhat versatile and seems to be designed for scientists who wanted to be able to work in extreme environments, this one seems to be for volcanoes as evidenced by the scorched and blackened metal and the complete absence of paint on the machine around it and the numerous pictures of fire and lava the cockpit is adored with… the previous owner clearly had quite the sense of humor. It looks somewhat like a quadrupedal crab with the cockpit embedded in the center of the the body with a science suite installed right behind the cockpit.

Congratulations: you are
ACCEPTEDNakeen: you're 2 points over
Gwolfski: Also 2 points over
Roboson: 1 coilgun max and you have not spent all your points.
The fact everyone is 2 points over is probably my poor wording
