Rais to get goodies would be:
L1:
griffin-1s
phx hawk-2
shd hawk-2h
grasshopper-5h (or the varient in the design thread)
Hands, with enough weight to grab goodies of oppurtunity. The grashopper would do a lot of running an jumping to keep up, but its firepower would be good. all the mechs have a good weapons mix, with a leaning to lasers. hands allow the ammo users to go for cargo id they do run out.
L2:
Wraith
spector
grandragon
charger-3k (mlas and Lrm)
This is what I would pick with l2, serious endurance with good move and hands to grab goodies. the charger is the slow one here, but it would be able to keep up.
If you are talking cahrging around the rear areas blowing things up:
L1:
Jenner
phx hawk
grasshopper
dragon
L2:
charger-3k
penetrator
pillager
wraith
It is amazing what advanced tech does for mobility of heavier designs.

I happen to be painting a company right now which would be perfect for this sort of thing; without further ado:
Heavy Lance:
Orion
Grasshopper
Crusader
Panther
Medium Lance:
Griffin
Shadow Hawk
Wolverine
Wasp
Recon Lance
Phoenix Hawk
Wasp
Wasp
Locust
The Heavy Lance would be a bit slow in some situations, but it can always hang back on the dropship if it would be a liability; I imagine, however, there are very few situations in which a heavy lance is a liability. I've got an independent light lance around as well which has proven itself in battle on several occasions.
Phoenix Hawk LAM
Jenner
Commando x2

WEll, 4 spiders would strike and fade well, I don't know what lvl 2750 is, but if it'l lvl2 then I'd definetely go for 4 hussara, I've alway's loved their combo of speed and range.
And both types have arms, very inportant for raiders IMHO

And a company of infantry could ruin your Hussars day. Cool idea but 0 armor. And in a raid, you may have to enter a factory or city to get something, then your speed means little and armor is life. Plus you can not kill them either.
Always need some balance.
AWAD- Or how about bad terrain?
