Well is new, an ammo dependant mech. You get Kudo for that alone. Most newbies (both board and players) make laser boats. Maybe you have more expirence than I am supposing, but it is a unique mech idea.
I do think youi should drop the TAG, completely usless for you. More ammo would be good or a single laser weapon for wehn you are out of ammo and running for home.
Do you think it has a chance against a Dashi?
AWAD- Ahhhhhh some orginality

I like Designs that wont fry the pilot.It is ammo dependent but it runs extremely cool.You can run fire all your weapons an not come close to over heating.I hope you enjoy this one though it is not for the rookie.

I like it as well. But I have to agree with AWAD. trash the TAG. put in at least one laser. Although you have enough ammo for the games I get into. you can never tell a crit shot will hit an ammo bin.
Nice mech. Two thumbs up.

It would be. The only draw back would be the ammo. The Dasihi is mostly energy based. So it would have the upper hand.
But your gauss does more local damage as to where the Daishi could spead it out. Should be a interesting fight.

I honestly think that it's a little under-gunned for a Clan assault. I'd suggest that you strip out the LB, the SRM, and the TAG. That will give you enough tonnage for either a Clan Guass or Clan Arrow IV, two tons of ammo, and another half-ton for something else.

Arrow system!?! In a clan mech!!!!! Not on my watch.
There are a few clan mechs that have these. But for the most part it is considered dishonorable to have Artillery in a mech. (It is OK for vehicles. but not mech).
Non of my mechs in my unit have these. But almost every vehicle does. All 243 of them.
I may be Honable. But I am not stupid. Art is very helpful in the battlefeild.

Artillery is a waste in B'tech.
The base to-hit is so high that unless you have TAG it is next to worthless. Nix that--it is worthless.

Agreed. which is why 83% of my mechs carry a TAG unit. They may have to spot for a vehicle force. It came in handy more times than one.

Units using TAG can't use any other weapon...many times TAG is also a waste.
