================================================================================================
Overview:
    I tried to make the PH 13 (created by Ruger) a bit "cheaper" without losing too much of its
    character. Weapons, armor and mobility are a little bit weaker - on the other side, I tried
    to improve the sensor-suite. So reconaissance is a bit more important. ;o)

Looks good, but it could be better.

Primary thing I notice is the use of LAC/2’s ILO PAC/2’s.

Sure the Inner Sphere’s LAC/2 does the same damage and is a crit smaller, and has five more shots per ton, but they weigh a half ton more and have shorter range in each bracket in comparison to the PAC/2.

Now, the PAC/4 vs LAC/5? The latter is better. For an extra half ton, you save a crit, same ammo per ton, same range at each bracket and a point more damage. Good trade off to use the Inner Sphere’s weapon.

Now, the PAC/8 has no real Inner Sphere equivalent. Would love to see a LAC/10, but it doesn’t exist.
