Hmmm, now I'm thinking I should have gone with 18 or 19 heat sinks and more armor...

It might be a good replacement for the "walking trashcan"...er, I mean, the Urbanmech.

The only problem with that mod Vagabond is if you fire both PPCs you're back to the 3-5 you were before...

And I happen to like the Urbie

So do I. After all, what better mech to use for gaining skill points? They are so easy to kill with a good mech. Even in urban environments.

yup, the urbie is good for that.

Chihawk, this mech just seems...I don't know. I know you were going for an all-energy armed mech, but I have issuses with something not mounting a ballistic or missile weapon. This mech has redeeming qualities in being non ammo-dependant though. It's just a flavor issue I guess.

If they are equal BVs the Urbie can hold it's own against just about any canon mech in the game.

Actually, I wasn't going for anything except making sure I knew how to post mechs

Like I said, this mech isn't that good and I figured the "techies" here would have fun fixing it.

Chihawk, you said 'a little slow' and I said ' Really slow'. a simple difference of magnitude.

A large percentage of level 1 50 tonners are 4-6, so at 3-5 it's only "a little too slow".

On the other had, if I'd made it 2-3 then it would have been "really slow"
