================================================================================================
Overview:
Designed as a direct-fire support 'mech, the Basilisk is everything it is supposed to be.
Unfortunately, it is nothing more.
Capabilities:
Equipped as it is with Jump Jets, the Basilisk is quite maneuverable, enabling it to move to
the most advantageous positions with ease.
Mounting impressive mid-range firepower, the Basilisk is able to lay down an almost
continual barrage from its Armstrong Buster Autocannon and Chiscomp 43 Special Large Laser.
Backed up by a pair of Chiscomp 39 Medium Lasers, one mounted in the left arm, and one
mounted in the center torso, facing to the rear.
Deployment:
The Basilisk has so far met with lukewarm receptions in the units it is deployed to. Likely
because the design really isn't that exceptional.

Its weapons place it into the medium to shortrange category but for this the armor is a bit thin. The two jump jets seem a bit strange to me. Better drop them for more armor or try to double them to be of real use. Heat management on the other side is no problem at all so its able to deliver a constant barrage.

The weapons load out resembles the Enforcer (+15 t and better armor). I would drop two heat sinks for additional jump jets, because 2 hex jump is laughable. For this size and weapons it could have stronger armor, or some long range backup instead. there wouldn't be a problem with handling of the PPC. I'm not impressed.

It is kind of an Enforcer clone. Nothing really too special here. The armor is a bit thin for tangling with the real brawlers like the T-bolt, and it doesn't match a PPC or LRM carrier for range. It's probably a bit over heat sinked, and I'm not quite certain what to make of the jump jets. Still, it is a servicable design, it just feels like one big compromise.

I'd like this mech more except for one thing, the 2 jumpjets. The weapons loadout is nice, the armor is okay, the speed is average....about what you'd expect of a level 1 front line heavy. I don't buy the direct fire support role, the longest range you have is 15 hexes. That puts you pretty much on the line with the sluggers. For the support role drop one or both of your main weapons for a longer reaching one. At least 18 hexes for the range. This would pair well with the TDR-5S Thunderbolt though. BUt those jumpjets are killling me. (Did you put them there on purpose just to vex me? lol) Drop em for armor or a third medium laser. Another thing, I like the rear facing laser, not many designs mouunt them and they come in handy more than most think.
