The idea of a fast, well armed longrange barrage mech isn´t that bad but this design has too many flaws.
1. There is CASE in both side torsi so why putting that AMS ammo in the center torso where it could be hit with a critical?
2. 10 single heat sinks are sufficient to vent away all the heat it can produce so why putting in a 11th one?
3. There is so much money spent on that huge XL so why not spending another 140.000 or so for an EndoSteel chassis?
With ES and a heatsink less you could push the armor to 12 tons!
As this isn´t designed for close combat keep it near your LRM boats where it can protect them with its gauß rifle! |

If i ever had a chance to ride this, i will kill the AMS, swap all the armor to FF, change heatsinks to DHS thus removing the redundant heatsink and maybe try to squeeze an ER medium laser on this thing.
Running out of ammo in a fight is a bad bad thing. And this thing doesn't boast alot of ammo either. At least a med laser gives it something to shoot elementals with. |

This mech is terrible, but I love it. There are so many flaws with this design that it's hard to know where to start (ammo in all three torsos, no armor, single heat sinks, no energy weapons, the list goes on). That being said, this mech is fun to play. Like the Rifleman, the Excaliber has a lot of style, and it requires a great deal of skill to use effectively. |

Somebody got a bit too ambitious with this design. The weapons are all well and good, but once somebody starts shooting back this 'mech is in trouble. |

Part sniper, part barrage mech, but it lacks any kind of close up ability. Heck, a small laser would be an improvement over nothing. Still, this thing can give a target a good swift kick in the actuators at nearly any range. The armor is very thin for a heavy mech, and getting into a serious shootout is going to get this mech scrapped, and fast. |
