The criteria for this challenge is to make an "elemental hunter". That is, a suit of battle armor that can seek out, engage, and reliably defeat, 1 on 1, the standard Clan Elemental suit.

Tech base is Inner Sphere. The design should be able to at least keep pace with Elementals (3 movement, minimum). Armor type and amount is at your discretion, as are weaponry and secondary systems. Fluff is not required, but helps. Cost is no object.

Those have 3 MP. 2 Standard, since that's all the body weight can handle, and then a jump booster for the extra bit.

Or were you just lamenting the fact that they were not faster? Yeah, 4 MP would be perfect, but you run into problems trying to counter elementals with Inner Sphere BA. These do a bang up job on firepower and armor though, with good mobility even still. And better range, I should think, thanks to the MagShot.

No, I'm not lamenting, I was confused by the way the program displays the data, don't own HM BA designer and I never felt like studying the papers...

Well, since only one person entered (but with 4 designs. Good for you!) I'm calling this in favor of Vagabond and his Hunter Hardsuit.
