In a defensive situation this mech will rock.
Rain down missiles while staying under "electronic cover" and give your enemy a bad day. If the opponent finally manages to close use your lasers and jump jets to play cat and (big) mouse while under stealth without any heat effects. Its good armor and standard engine will last longer than your enemy wishes.
If used in an offensive role the reduced speed is an issue though.
Trading some ammo for two artemis, like suggested before, isn't a good idea as the activated stealth armor will interfere with electronics like that. |

Many people forget about the abilities of Stealth Armor that offer this mech its main bite. It still packs dual LRM-20s and enough DHS to keep the mech sufficiently cool even when firing BOTH LRMS with Stealth on.
Although this Archer has no Artemis, it will be so difficult to dislodge this mech from a defensive position since targeting against it is seriously impaired while it continues to rain LRMs on you. And it has ALOT OF LRMS to burn.
Even then swapping 1 ton of LRM ammo each for Artemis will reduce the long term firepower somewhat but turn this Archer into a precise killer and the ammo load is still sufficient.
Defensive armament is only 2 er medium lasers but this Archer can jump.... |

This is a great design. It is a superior firesupport mech with stealth armor capable of extending its stay in the fray at its perferred range. Definatly a great use of stealth armor. The archer always had a place in my heart and this version is excellent. It even has Jump jets. Long range sniping at its best. |

It's definitely a specialist, but in heavy terrain this 'mech will be a terror. It sports the thick armor we all love in the Archer, and carries enough ammo to burn some on indirect fire attacks and long-range shots made while jumping. The lower speed means you won't want to use this on the attack, but it's perfect for defending a heavy position. The Guardian seems a bit out of place though. |

Its good, the duel LRM20's bombard enemy mechs while the duel ER mediums hold off anyone getting to close. The case and jump jets increase survivability and manouverability. The guardian doesn't really belong on this mech and a pair of artemis would be much more welcome. |
