Very short range mech for brawling. Can still shield with right torso until AC20 ammo is gone then shield with left torso. Can't be stripped until dead. Optimal range is 180 meters for full 54.6 point alpha. I'll look at using SRM's once they get around to fixing hit detection, until then I'll stick to weapons that hit 'most' of the time!
Had great luck with a similar build, however utilizing AC10 as the slow projectile speed of the AC20 doesn't mesh well with the pulse lasers past the 180m mark as you pointed out. Its good for 2 alphas before needing to ride the heat threshold, but you're heat neutral with the AC10+LPL and provides some decent mid-range punch with easy convergence as the cost of exposing most of your mech.
