Suggestions for new Hero Mechs?

On Sarna.net it is written that the Hunchback 2C has 2x UAC20 + 2x ERLLas. Now THAT is really OP. But how is such a weaponload on a 50t Mech even possible??

 

You forgot to mention it comes with jump jets.

A Hunchy with an XL200 engine, Endo-Steel, two additional DHS, 6 tons of armor, and 4 JJ weighs 20 tons.

The Clan version of the UAC20 is 12 tons and only take up 8 slots so they can be used in conjunction with XL engines. The ER Medium Lasers are 1 ton each, so the total armament weighs 26 tons, which leaves 4 tons for ammo.

So yeah, adding clan weaponry is going to unbalance the game.

 

I don't think UAC20 is in the current time we are currently in yet, maybe next year.
And I don't think clan tech is a problem if everyone as it though.

Oh, and who cares about stock weaponary setup! We need good, performances, hardpoint positions and engine sizes. We will rip it up and customize it anyways.

I don't mind if they make a hero Atlas with MG in ALL PLACES(LT, RT, LA, RA, etc), cause it would still be a WONDERFUL MECH. Cause we know we would fill those things up with AC20 and what not (4x Gauss anyone?).

 

Call me crazy, but I'm pretty sure they're not going to release a 'mech that can mount more than 2 AC/20 or 3 Gauss.

 

20tons for the Mech with JJs. 26tons for weaponloadout and 4tons Ammo. Sounds fantastic. I wanna buy!

 

Fail~

Granted, this is a glasscannon.

The fail is in ambiguous language and parsing. Imagine a bit of journalistic editing.

I want chainfiring Quad.LBX10!

Now this is interesting. A Custom-Variant for the Quickdraw with a different Cockpit-Position and 2x Energy-Hardpoints at the Head (CT) plus some Options for a Hand-held Weapon (even Autocannons!). I would highly welcome such a Hero-Variant.

 

I know i know. I meant a Hero-Variant with a similar concept..

 

I want TSM.
I want Stealth armor.
I want pod/handheld weapons.
As a matter of fact look at those weapons! Thunderbolt 10 clad, Light AC/5... those are pretty good. SSRM4!!! And if that is not enough Rotary AC/5!!!

But some of those are too early for the timeline, others are not here yet due to PGI effectivness.

 

What about a Raven with one laser hardpoint in each arm and torso also one missile hardpoint (4-6 tubes) in both torsos? The Ravens are normally right heavy, so why not make a symmetrical build? Though it reminds me a lot like one of the jenner's hardpoints.

 

Best idea would be an Atlas with 2x MG in both arms and both side toso, LRM5 in both side torsos, and a MLas in CT, TAG in head.
THIS WOULD BE THE *BEST* HERO MECH EVER.

Actually another one would be a Quickdraw, with LRM5x2 in both side torso, SRM2 in CT and both arms. A pair of MLas in the arms finishes the build, along with the standard JJ and AMS.

Would be too p2w though, both of them.

But I really want a Quickdraw with 2x Ballistic in one side torso, that would give the chassis a ballistic option.

 

:whacko: :whacko: :whacko:

 

I want to see a BJ-2 Hero! All weapons in the arms. It'll look like a mini JM6-A.

2x Energy (LA+RA), 4x Missile (LA+RA), AMS, 2x JJ, Max Engine XL280. I would buy that in a half a heartbeat!!
