The META(L) will live on



A word of warning: completely theory-crafted, I don't own the actual mech.

Pure brawler, actually looks amazing on paper thanks to both the missile cooldown/heatgen/speed quirks and the structure bonuses.

Seriously: the Trebuchet has very interesting quirks. I can't tell about the hardpoints' position, but I think it's time to give some love to this mech.

 

Meta. And works!

 

Yep old treb meta. Right now changed to dual MRM30's. Great mech.

 

TBT-7M was the first mech I ever bought. I ran it with MRM 40 and 2xSRM6. I alpha striked everything, didn't know about ghost heat. Good memories. Like the time I totally went the wrong way at the start of a match and found myself facing the enemy assault lance single handedly. I charged a Thanatos so the guys behind him couldn't shoot me. We fired everything at point blank range, smoke everywhere, firing blind... then he went down! Unfortunately, then my cover was blown and an atlas promptly finished me off.

Or the time I ended up arriving back at our base to find 3 enemy assaults and one friendly medium who promptly died. First time I remember using sideways poking and it worked well. I killed all three of those assaults with armor to spare, but not much ammo, and so I died to their last player who was in a light mech I just couldn't hit.
