Strong armor and weapons which can be quite annoying, the speed is just average, but sufficient for a 'Mech designed for defensive actions and slow advances. Weapons can be dangerous at close range, but with such a slow machine, a single AC/5 is not enough for intended mission.
The amount of ammo carried by the 'Mech is insane. It won't use all the ammo, so it will either dump it or face an ammo explosion. A waste of tonnage. |

I agree with the other reviewers here that the ammunition supply here is excessive. Personally, I'd make this 'mech jump capable and get rid of at least two tons of AC ammo and all but a half ton of MG ammo. That still leaves at least a couple of tons for other embellishments.

40 rounds for the AC 5 and 100 for the Machine guns would have been enough. That kind of ammo reduction could get you another heat sink and another quad of machine guns. Letting you run and fire all your Medium Lasers as your in close weaponry.
Its a good idea. But sometimes ammo can be gone over board on, which happened here.
Thick armour will only cover you for so long and I can't see it lasting long enough for you to fire off all this ammo. Even with a standard engine.
Wonderful idea, just needs a bit of polish to become something special. |

I like this, but some of that ammo can really go away. The only reason you would need 80 rounds for 1 gun is on an extended raid and I would not want to risk the ammo explosion for that long of a campaign. Much safer to keep some spare ammo in the dropship. |

This could have been good.
It has good range and the idea of a cheap barrage mech is sound.
But it suffers from too much ammunition.
Its one thing to have a good supply, its quite another to be oversupplied. You're practically asking for a stray shot to give you an ammo crit.
This is true for both its AC/5 and its MGs.
However, its armour is rock solid and might 9a big might) keep it alive.. |
