This design will run hot and like all wolftrap, they are only as good as long their ammo holds out, which isn't alot of ammo.

Still i find the MRM on an expensive medium mech like this abit of a waste. Also the armor is alittle fragile, go for the quick shots then pull out as fast as you can.



That's what it was made for. The 3F is clearly no improvement. The MRMs can be fired every round in conjunction with movement and AC alternating between ultra and standard mode without overheat. That is not that bad for medium machine IMO.

The main purpose is to get to good position, empty the ammo magazines and get out. The UAC can make holes quickly in most targets, so if there are still the original WFTs then the cluster ammo and LRMs will be felt much more. C3 and armor (not exceptional, but still with this mobility it isn't that bad) should be enough to allow the 3F Wolf trap to hang around for a while, so it may provide targeting data and thanks to weapon range the 'Mech should be able to avoid ECM. I chose the MRMs because they don't require to get too close, so even if inaccurate, you may stay out of IS medium pulse laser reach. ER laser is purely defensive weapon for situations when the AC is off line (out of ammo or jammed).

I don't expect higher than average ratings for this 'Mech. It's just an alternative for which I would like to hear people's opinions. Thanks for your review.
