Ok so there is 2 that I am posting. This is an assault that is for an alpha striker terribly undersinked. But truthfully only goes up by 6 when it runs and fires its long range bracket, significantly more when it fires its short range bracket. but this one I like. Anyway let me know what you think.

This one would puzzle me a little more than the Mace.

At long/medium range it can fire PPCs and LRMs. I would probably try to leave one PPC alone and fire only one with the LRMs (unless there is no problem with slowing down). There is a lot of LRM ammo, so I would try to get rid of it (of course that in a campaign this would be different, but that may be a matter of preferences).

At short range there is a lot of heat, but with so many weapons it should be easy to keep it in check. The streaks don't fire every turn and you have just enough DHSs to fire your lasers (almost) nonstop. So I would try to fire the lasers and hold the SRMs to exploit any holes that may appear in enemy armor. PPCs are still quite useful at this range, so if there is a target without any significant damage than I would not hesitate to use them (probably firing them instead of a few lasers, because moving 2/3 doesn't sound good unless I'm fighting another turtle like this one).

I would prefer two lasers facing back wards, but again, this mech has some heat problems, but they shouldn't trouble anyone who can count a little.
