FUN \o/ Not sure how amazing it is yet; I've had two games in it (assault & conquest) that went to pure capping in the second half, but still managed around 500 damage in each. It's fast, it makes some pilots panic & squirm and it's fun to pilot if you like this sort of thing Will post some screenshots if I get any really good results. recommended modules: Target info & LB10X cooldown EDIT: I built this around an XL340 because I had one spare. You could drop it to 330 or 325, probably still be fast enough for the role, and spend the 1.0-1.5t on a heatsink/armour/ammo as you like.
Cheers! Yeah I'm gonna try this. MAD's a bit less XL friendly than I initially thought. And it's super tough with a Standard... could be a much better fit for these weapons, I'll give it a go Good call on the SPL too.
OK so I played around for a bit; I think your standard engine version makes much more sense on paper, but I'm not good enough at brawling to make it work at its best. I went back to XL as I'm more at home with the speed (stick & move, then close in on weakened mechs), but I'm gonna try standard again from time to time, it's something I need to get better at. The survivability of this thing with a standard is just incredible, and while practicing with this I discovered how good it is at dead-siding (very very very good). I've limped away from situations even my Banshees would be lucky to survive. I would recommend shifting both LPLs to the right arm, both SPLs to the left, and shield with the left side. Also scrounge some more armour for the legs.
