    BJ-1X


    well, this mech was inspired by the other laser BJ-1X mechs with SPlas loadouts. Im also posting this because I really wanted to make a mech called "Rainbow vomit" :D I will usually use this chassis with a mixture of ERLas and some other lasers to give it a large usable range but, with this version im going more for close range brawling. it has pretty deadly alpha strike as well. It does pretty good on any maps with city in the title but not as good on long range maps like Alpine peaks for obvious reasons.

    thanks for viewing :)

    I still prefer my 1X as a ML boat. But in this build, why not place the LPL on the arm, to enhance your options to shoot at medium range whilst keeping most of your mech behind cover?

    this is not a bad idea. The times I had used this mech with two ERLL, I'd always put them in the center torso. I guess I did the same with the LPL in this mech out of habit. But, the blackjack is so small and maneuverable that I've found it easy to get behind cover pretty quickly when needed. I still think your suggestion is worth a try. that could very well be an improvement over the position I have it in.

    I like that plan. You could move the MPLases to the LT and RT so that you still have firepower if you're disarmed.

    Hello and welcome on Mechspecs!

    The mod fixed it for you, but next time to properly embed the smurfy build, just copy/paste the https link (<= don't forget the "s").

    Appropriate name for such a build.
    But I'm personally not a fan of more than 2 laser types on a weapon system, and think LPLas + 4 MPLas or LPLas + 6 SPLas would be better.
