I know it is short in the ammo department. But the area is alot like a duel. Short and ferice. The ammo should not be a factor. Unless the battle last to long. Which not likly in the area. _________________ "If a man does not keep pace with his companions, Perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.Let him step to the music which he hears,however measured or far away."

As much as I like the improvements, changing the weapons doesn't really fix the two major problems which are:
1) XL engine
2) Lack of Armor that compounds problem 1

Maybe toss the XL totally in favor of some other weapon.

I was toying around with the idea of getting rid of the LB-X in favor of an ERLL or ERPPC and Stealth Armor and using the weight savings to put in more armor and a TAG. I like the Streaks though so I would keep them.

There is a good idea. Let me play with on HMP and see what I can come up with.

I could not squeeze in the TAG unit. And I do not think you can have both Sleath and FF armor. But this is what I came up with.

Yeah baby! Maxed out Armor, long reach and can mount Inferno rounds (Up yours treadheads!) and Stealth Armor...and best of all it get's rid of that XL engine.

This is a great Mech if you can manage heat.

I was thinking FFA if the Stealth Armor wouldn't fit.

Yeah, She can be a heat pig. But nothing a good pilot could not manage.

Glad you like. I will send my bill to you later

Yes. I put the XL back in. In a clan. It is not so bad. And it did give me room for more heat sinks.

Toss the SSRMs and throw in a ATM system and call it a Vindicator IIC instead?

I thought about putting in a ATM system, But with a ERPPC and a couple or ERMs. Some crit hunters would be more effective.

And as good as the ATMs are. SRM streaks are far better crit hunters.
