    I think this is my final build-type for this mech. Totally plays a support roll with your big mechs. Just picture yourself as a jock strap...

    Pretty much spamming ac2 linked and chain-fired lrms with tag to suppress and blind enemies while your atlases or flying poptarts finish them off.

    Still need to min/max armor and ammo, but this seems to do well enough for the time-being. You don't have any energy backup so you have to take smart shots.

    I'm running a similar build (smaller engine, less armor, less JJ, more ammo, more DHS):



    Quite enjoyable support mech. Except, I think, for the one taking all this AC/2 and missiles in the face, it should be annoying as hell.
    I also tested with a MLas instead of TAG, but I didn't feel it was that useful. Just a pity when you run out of ammo...
