Wow they are WAY to nasty. and for the BV they take up compared to a regular mech, the numbers are overwhelming! In a Bv battle the Gm took protos and 1k less BV to our 2 stars of frontline clan mechs. In 10 rounds we had killed a total of 4 (out of 30) and had lost all but 1 of your mechs!
Im not if I think its munchy or not. But I really dont think I like them. Let me know what you think of them just curious if everyone else has had a chance to get plowed over by them as well. And If so, did you like them or not?
Im not sure if well use them again, mabey as a actuall role playing adventure.

I like ProtoMechs very much. Espcially their focus on a specific weapon and a specific role on the battlefield.
With a point of ProtoMechs any (experienced) player should be able to win against a single 'Mech of the same tonnage as the entire point of ProtoMechs in nearly all cases 
Even if the ProtoMechs have a much lower Battlevalue as the 'Mech.
I especialy love to teach newbies, which think that 'Mechs with 100 tons or more ( like the Beetle ) are invincible because they are so big, that the use of tactics and superior numbers are much better than using a single oversized bucket & loaded dice 
MfG, MEX

Aye I was in a dragonfly at the time with the erppc and was getting owned. and when I was moving full jump and they moved full jump I couldnt hit them. I will admit that I was in the last group to fall (and at that point it was 25 or so to 3 (I think) and we concided.
Ive found that just because your 100 tons dosent mean you can own the battilefield. I have personally destroyed mechs with conventinal forces on a regular basis. And aerospace is even more fun to play with.
Dive bombing rocks if you can hit. Nothing like dropping a 100 point bomb on a mech and then starting your strafing runs

Until the introduction of the ProtoMechs i didnt play Clan's when i could avoid it.
I prefer to play 3026 and with vehicles.
If my opponents insist on advanced techologies i prefer to use the Aar variant of the M.U.L.E.( this is one of my own designs, a 50 ton Hovertank with ICE, 8/12, Arrow IV & 5 tons of ammunition ), placed as offboard artillery which launches a Arrow IV missile per Aar each round, together with very fast Hovertanks equipped with TAG to place the Arrow IV missiles into the weak rear armor of the opposing mechs
