The loss of the A/C 10 for a large laser has much reduced the mech's punch at range but that is still livable since u dont have to worry about ammo, but the removal of the LRM-10 has neutered the mech's long range firepower.
The SRM-6 is good but the mech could live with a smaller rack and a bigger LRM rack or at least another LRM-5 rack.
The JJs are a good addition but it might take me a while to accept a jumping Centy

Jump jets on the centurion and the lack of serious ranged firepower make this mech basically a limited city fighter now.
Taking a work horse and using it as a city fighter isn't a problem. But from my point of view you've just gutted its strength and tried to build on a different path.

It's not actually a Centurion. I just noticed several similarities between the two, mostly the same speed, same tonnage, and the fact that damage ramps up the closer it gets.
Perhaps it was a mistake pointing that out...
Also, if you rip off the jets, you have enough space for an LRM-10 and one ton of reloads. If you go with the Centurion's armor load as well (8 tons, compared to the Tiger's 9) then you can add another ton of ammo.

I'll agree with the others if this was a Centurion revamp. But it's a Tiger now so different parametes. The missle systems provide it with good close in firepower but middling long range firepower. The large laser lets it not worry about ammo in what I'd call it's primary weapon. The mediums make a traditional back up pairing. The armor combined with the jumpjets help make this one a rugged ride. I kinda like it.
