    For whatever reason this build wasn't already in our database. Double AC10 are quite deadly, and 4-of MLas equal an AC20-like backup punch. This specific combination also makes the Firebrand's hardpoints shine. I am cringing each time I see an AC40 Firebrand tbh.

    Other than the ML in the Arm, it's a standard Jager config. It's a good one, but come on, Use 6ml and make me happy.

    Yeah, but the arm energy hardpoints are what make the FB special, aren't they? Mounting 6 Mlas will turn this into a walking baking oven...




    On the other hand this might work when reserving the torso mounted MLas for alpha striking...

    I ran something similar but ditched the 4x ML for 2x MPL.
    Having the pulses on the arms gives good pitch so can aim high or low with em. I usually run out of AC rounds but the lasers keep me going.

    This is what I run...


    Typically really good results..

    Drop the engine down to an XL 265...slightly better cooling...I'd be curious to run it on Terra Therma and see what kind of consistent striking capacity it has.

    I think that AC10+ML, no matter the Jager variant, is the most balanced setup possible. AC40 alpha with better midrange and easier aiming - and noone will insult you for running the cheesiest build. On top of that, you get the awesome fiery FB looks. 5/5
