Not too shabby of a design. Of course, I always wish they jumped!! Smile

Thank you. I made a KNB-2K variant that jumps 5. It trades out the ppc, downgrades the gyro to XL, for 5 ER Medium Lasers.

I'm mostly opposed to XL engines, just because I tend to find the disadvantage of death when the side-torso is destroyed outweighs the advantages you get. But I do realize individual experiences and preferences vary. So as much as I love to jump, I'd prefer this design with the Light Fusion, because it is fast enough to overcome the jump, under most common terrain scenarios.

And I now realize you said XL Gyro... so I take back my comments about the XL Engine. I'll have to look at your other design now. But I'm not so opposed to XL Gyros. Smile

Yeah these are the first mechs I've designed in quite a few years. I am so happy I found your website....getting back into battletech and was dreading designing new mechs by hand. I generally dislike XL engines as well, but I do find myself using them every once in awhile. The Lite fusion engine is one of my favorites as well.

Welcome back!! Smile

It's damn near impossible to design 'Mechs by hand now with all the variations in equipment one has and the rules that come with all of it. Was much easier 30 years ago!
