    Heresy! Using the unique missile hardpoints for one-time use weapons and instead focusing on a 'Heavy PPC' as main weapon? Yes, that's exactly what this is.

    LE version has a bit more JJ and speed.

    Been using a variant with XL180, max JJs and a ton of heat sinks. No rockets, though, but figured this is similar enough not to deserve its own thread.

    This mech needs the max JJs to really shine, imo. Plenty of cooldown on the LPPCs now, so the jumping trashcan thing works out nicely.

    Could easily lose some heat sinks for rockets, or a light engine and rockets, but love how cool this runs.

    I think I'd run this on a Street Cleaner for the higher engine cap as a way to have more use for the leftover tonnage in that case. The Rocket Launchers are great in a pinch where you just need that extra 60 damage.
