A killer in close in fights but with some lost potential. A bit oversinked for my taste and the AMS would be better swapped for armor. JJ´s wouldn´t be bad too (ES and 3 JJ´s would be fine) to give it more mobility in a city (which this shouldn´t leave at almost all cost).

The heat dissipation and the speed of this chassis are pretty impressive, but for a short range load out there isn't much armour. Ostsol isn't THAT fast and with XL engine the damage will be felt. Heat probably won't be a problem, just don't overtax your heat sinks too much, because the AMS lasts longer with new rules. I'm not sure whether the concept of this machine (lighter armour, XL and short range weapons) is good, because the result resembles an over-sized (and slow for it's role) striker. I don't like this.

Halfway decent. It would be nice to have higher speed, endosteel, more armour and the death of that anti missile system.

Another great example of the FWL's love of pulse. But please please swap to Endo and get some more armor!!! Still, it's not bad as a bodyguard, guerilla, or city fighter.

This mech seems to be an afterthough upgrade. Like the designers thought 'uhhh, we better upgrade this one to, I guess' but didnt have a clear clue as to what they were doing.
The weapons are good for a guerilla raider, or for extended operations. The only ammo it carries is for the AMS, which has a tendancy to run dry mighty fast.
The heat sinks can take some pretty hot and heavy firefights, but wont last forever, especially if youre going to wade into a mess of targets and start shooting at anything that moves. Fire discipline is your best friend.
The armor seems a bit papery for a 60 tonner, concentrated more in the torsos while leaving the limbs a bit naked. Eight points of armor barely keeps out rain, much less serious ordinance. Saving grace is that there are no weapons in either arm.
This mech looks like a good bodyguard unit. Use a couple to keep people from getting too close to a nest of missile boats. Just dont try to tackle an Atlas. It wouldnt be pretty.
