Hot. Hot. Hot. Hot. Use SNPPCs for pinpoint, use MPLs for sweep, use both for a 56pt alpha. Be careful. Hot. Hot. Hot.
Trying something close to this. Dual SNPPCs in an arm, 6xmlaz on the torso, a 350LE engine, a shield arm, a TC1 and all of the DHS. Test game looked promising. If it works out I'll treat it to it's very own thread.
I went personally with 1 high mounted HPPC in the torso and 6 MPL spread over the lower hardpoints in the end. Very effective and enjoyable mech, especially the 'AC15' that is the HPPC is very nice.
Yup just grabbed one in the sale. A pleasing machine, quick and tanky from the get-go. Has a similar feel to a Warhammer - and I love my Warhammer. Bargainous.
