This does for the Shadow Hawk what the WVR-5M does for the Wolverine. You could go hunting for heavy 'mechs in this sort of machine and stand a good chance of success. It carries more armor than a Warhammer...as much as a Marauder, in fact. The Large Laser is a passable long range weapon for its era, particularly when coupled with LRMs.
The only modifications I'd make is to lose a ton of LRM ammo for a heat sink, and to split the medium lasers up.
All of those beam weapons are going to make this 'mech run hot. An extra heat sink will let you fire a barrage at short range and walk with no heat buildup, and halve the rate of heat buildup if you have to run at short range. Unlike the Phoenix Hawk, this 'mech doesn't have enough jump jets to keep you mobile when your movement is impeded because of heat buildup, so its best to keep the heat under control. |

Solid design. I think that it may drop two heat sinks or heat sink and armor for another small LRM rack. Strong armor and good mobility allow it to stay in action longer, but I think that 48 shots for single launcher are more than enough. |

I'm looking at this from the point of working with Shadow Hawks.
And i can see Light Hawks closing with the foe while the Shadow Hawks hang back.
Not much firepower until you get close, but i think that's the whole idea.
As usual, Warhammer fluffs it out well. |

The Fluff is excellent, has the Percesus/Orion feel to it, as you went with the sharing of parts etc...
The weapon mix is decent, you have the ranges covered nice overlapping with the LL and the MLs. The LRM gives it long range punch but not too much, I can see some folks ignoring that part and it costing them.
This one is pretty nice for the old school era of 3025 time frame. A solid design. |
