I never liked the Ostscout much but this can have its use. If your side can deliver a homing Arrow IV into the sky every turn your opponent can get very nervous. Together with some LRM-boats equipped with semiguided warheads it will rock too. If your enemy decides to hunt it down it will take some time due to the high speed and enormous jump. Also the pilot can´t get angry about the fact, that he isn´t allowed to fire any weapons while TAGing: He has none! :-)

It's still the same hard to catch scout with the ability to cooperate with smart artillery systems. Single ML wasn't of much use to it, so the TAG is definitely an improvement. Keep this 'Mech on the move and TAGing. It can't do much else. I think that when this 'Mech enters the field, it should be because scenario said that. Just like tractors and DropShips this machine is a part of the world. Something that has it's place, but it isn't in crossfire.

I don't have a problem with an Ostscout carrying no weapons; it was never meant for battle, but TAG was the wrong choice. An Active Probe or ECM would have made more sense.

"My TAG will stop them!!"
Funny, I'd expect this to be a Capellan 'Mech. I do believe that this is the only unarmed 'Mech ever created. Now, let's say it again, just so we're sure.
AN UNARMED 'MECH!!!!!!!!!
Going to the expense of building a BattleMech, and making it weaponless, is incomprehenisbly stupid. They're supposed to be BattleMechs, not DesignatorMechs. The only good thing is that it doesn't have rocket launchers. (wrong time period but still). The armor's not even very good. Maybe you can give it to chain gang raiders. The ultimate bonzai machine. (And if they survive, you can put them in Hussars. If that doesn't fix them, then they're unkillable and should be in Atlases.)

Kurita screwed up the day they approved this. Given a spider you can mount this exact setup and still have something to fight with.
Giving this same role to 2 mechs makes no sense. Especially when the 35 ton version has no weapons to its name.
