CN9-AL A simple, straightforward, no frills AL build that has served me extremely well. Runs cool, has great speed, can take a beating, and dish a good one out.
I've been using an extremely similar build for my AL for the past couple of weeks, (except mine has the Standard 260 from my Catapult because I was poor when I bought this mech, and used the saved ton to upgrade the SRM-4 to an SRM-6), and it's one of my favorite CN9-AL builds around. Solid build all around. Can zombie effectively (which I love in Centurions), harass at range with the Large Laser, and still has a really solid close range punch with 3 Medium Lasers and (in your case) SRM6 + SRM4. Heat can be a bit of a problem, but as long as you keep off the Large Laser in brawls, I find it's fairly easy to manage. 5/5 for a simple and effective build. I'll have to try out the SRM 6 + 4 combo, because it kinda irks me how the 2 tons of SRM ammo don't divide evenly into 2 SRM-6s.
Just to put the max engine in there for an Experiment. I like this build, and have run it plenty of times. 5-5
Vergere's AL is the superior build. I feel silly for not seeing it before. I guess because I've been piloting an AL so long I overlooked that simple engine upgrade for the cost of 2 missiles.
I tried running with XL and the results were fairly bad, it's too fragile. On the other hand, with STD i think this is *the* CN9-AL build. 5 stars.
