Incredibly versatile design, with enough speed for a striker/raider role, but also enough armor and firepower to use as a brawler or assault unit. This unit has two good weapon/heat sink brackets; at long range, it can run at full speed if necessary and fire its PPC with no heat buildup. At close range it needs to cycle its weapons every couple of rounds in order to keep its heat under control, but it has enough head dissipation capacity to maintain a constant offensive posture AND remain mobile.
The only half-point demerit I'm giving this design is for the two tons of SRM ammo. I think the extra ton just increases the design's vulnerability to an ammunition explosion. Overall though, I think this is a tough design that it going to be very hard to kill.
Thanks, Mud. I know the two tons of ammo is quite a lot, but I think it has the armor to keep it fairly safe. Plus, that way it lets you use a single ton of conventional ammo and an additional ton of specialty ammo (like infernos).
