My entry into the 1000 damage club. Poke with the lasers, hammer 'em with the auto cannon and SRM's, and use the lasers when you have spare heat. Pretty simple to use and easy to learn.
Sure! You can use the extra ton for another heatsink or more ammo. Use the lasers to open them up, once you find someone with an open component, close and use the two shotguns to blow it off!
