================================================================================================
Overview:
[I've "redated" some of the new but "old-looking" weapons. So I've a host of new equipment
available for succession war era mechs. This is one of them.]
Even though the UrbanMech is a dedicated for fighting in a city it often has problems
concerning infantry. The small laser isn't really a good infantry deterrent and the
autocannon ammo is often deemed to precious to "wast" them on footsloggers.
To correct this disadvantage some technicians began to mount anti-infantry weaponry instead
of the laser.
One of this field refits, dubbed UM-H60A, mounts a heavy machinegun.
Capabilities:
The HMG deliveres a solid anti-infantry punch and keeps the same damage potential against
armored foes as the original small laser. Most pilots are not worried about the somewhat
reduced range as infantry in a city seems to pop out just under their feet.
As the loss of a heat sink in return doesn't impair the performance of the heavy autocannon
no mechwarrior has complained about that either.
Deployment:
Variants of that kind emerge in units all over the Inner Sphere, house units and mercenaries
alike.
Variants:
Some UrbanMechs carry one or two medium or light machineguns with 200 or 100 salvoes
respectively instead. Those often are named with unofficial designations.
