Comment:
I think i´m a bit sentimental on this one: It was the first Mech I´ve ever played BT with. Good movement profile for a 3025, acceptable armor and weaponry. Only real drawback is the placement of the SRM, severly constricting it´s firearc and posing problems when behind half cover.

Comment:
This machine isn't that bad. Light armor doesn't allow it to stand a chance against the majority of the other mechs, but the SRMs have some use (especially with almost unlimited ammo and infernos). You can afford to stay away and fire the SRMs with low chance for a hit without the need to get closer (unlike STG or LCT machine guns), so this mech may at least try to avoid the most common infantry and light vehicle weapons. Good machine for gathering data, but flee if there is a chance that some serious opposition appears.

Classic mech and my second favorite variant of this mech, even though it is supposed to be the base model. I prefer the D variant with more useful weapons. This one isn't bad, that would be the L variant (sucks), the D is just better.

This can be considered your average light mech. Fitted with the right stuf for close recon. That's about it. I hate to see light mechs with super short guns like MGs and SRMS becuse the proximaty they need to be to make the fight successful is very small.
