The "Reaper" is named as an homage to the "Grimm" it is based on and carries a twin-linked AC/2 opposed to the singular AC/2 of the "Grimm". This increased long range firepower comes at the expense of speed and armour however and of course adds to it's medium and long range capabilities as both the MLs and AC/2s can fire on the target. The "Reaper's" short range capabilities remain the same as the "Grimm" as they both rely on SRMs and MLs at this range. This variant should be used in a ranged harassment role and in support of heavier Mechs or in tandem with a lance of light and medium Mechs as a Quick Response Unit. Plink plink from afar and if you see a mech close to death, close in and alpha the back. Otherwise distance and speed are your friends.
