The Lynx has enough heatsink to handle the ER version of its large laser and so this variant is a good and logical upgrade.
Both ER weapons give it a tremendous longrange punch for its weightclass now.
The pilot has to keep a closer look at the heatscale though but it isn“t very difficult to maintain a low heat profile. |

The ER large and ER PPC lets this mech hang back and keep nailing em with long range shots. The vulnerabilities of the XL are thus ain't so glaring here.
Even if the bad boys wanna close in, the mech has JJs and 4 mediums to put a good showing. |

A fair mech for a fast-attack lance, even though its not what you would call lightning quick.
The weapons are nicely suited for direct fire support, pretty much doing sniper work in support of the other mechs in the lance. If both the PPC and ER large hit, theyl cripple ro kill most light and medium mechs on the spot, and grab the attention of anything bigger.
Even the close in weapons deserve a bit of respect. A potential twenty points is impressive, no matter what your target is, and will force a pilot check if all of them hit.
What this mech cant do is take a hefty beating. Light and mid range weapons like SRMs, medium lasers, and small LRM racks will have to work to chew through the armor. Large weapons, like AC 10s, Gauss Rifles, and bigger LRM racks will barely slow down.
The other thing to remember is that the mech has essentially two sets of weapons, one for long range, and the other for short. Using the weapons at their intended ranges will keep this mech nice and cool. Alpha strikes will have a nasty tendancy to make this thing run hot. Granted theres no ammo to detonate, but shutting down in the middle of a firefight will get you killed just as dead.
A pretty fair sniper, edging into brawler territory. |

The ER Laser is a nice improvement; lets this 'mech stay at long range, where it's engine dictates that it needs to be. |

My favourite Lynx. It lets you run the heat as high as you want.
Just remember the ER Large or the ER PPC can be fired in close with the rest of your weapons. Not both. Unless your desperate and need to kill it now. It's a city fighter that can edge out into the open plains if it has to.
Still keep it in the city for the mauling it can dish out unless you need a slower recon in force. |
