================================================================================================
Overview:
    This design is not mine, to be honest.  I found a 2nd Edition Box Set last year at Half
    Price Books, & in the box someone still had a number of custom designs they had created.  My
    main contribution has been on the fluff side -- yes, I tend to favor the Taurians as a
    faction.  The primary reason for choosing this to be an enlarged Thunderbolt variant was
    twofold.  First, the Thunderbolt is one of the few designs that already has 3 medium lasers
    in the left torso.  Second, it was one of the designs available to the Taurian Concordat.

Variants:
    The Destroyer is a custom Thunderbolt variant developed as a potential assault-class 'Mech
    by the Taurian Concordat after the Reunification War.  The base Thunderbolt chassis was
    increased to 100 tons to allow it to go toe-to-toe with Star League & Davion assaults.  The
    engine was replaced by a Vlar 300, which reduced its top speed by 17%.  For the weapons
    package, all but the 3 medium lasers in the left torso were replaced by a Pontiac 100 Class
    20 Autocannon in the right torso with 3 tons of ammo & a Pontiac 50 Class 10 Autocannon in
    the left arm with 2 tons of ammo.  A 4th medium laser was mounted in the right arm, along
    with 6 additional heat sinks to offset the massive amount of heat.  The remaining tonnage
    allowed additional armor to be mounted, matching the vaunted Atlas for protection.

Well, they're definitely not the most "optimized" of designs, & I can honestly say I've never run across a canon design with both an AC/10 & and an AC/20 in it. Mainly I just wanted to have the designs saved somewhere other than just on paper or even on my hard drive.

Just did a quick search using my filters, and I couldn't find any canon design with both an AC/20 and an AC/10.

Sounds like "the cloud" is what you needed. Smile
