Garbage Mechs? (self.battletech)

Hey everyone, new to Battletech and know barely anything about the lore.

I've got this idea in my head of playing a sort of ragtag rebel army with plenty of infantry, tanks, and what few dregs they could get their hands on for mechs.

What mechs should I look into for this sort of theme?

Also are there any established lore factions that this concept fits into?

The Clint is a 40 tonner basically built for exactly your kind of force. Mediocre 40 tonner that can barely keep itself together. I'd also throw in a wasp or two due to their sheer numbers, a whitworth because, again, freaking everywhere. And maybe top it off with the OG Charger for some heavy metal fun.
