I Remade the Hermes, working with the Idea that It could be upgraded to 3060 standards without losing Its flavour.. I am fairly happy with what I have come up with.

Well this thing is incredibly maneuverable but the armour is somewhat thin.the weapon load is adequate.

Its still more your style than the heavy monsters many of the other guys here like isn't it?
I like them medium and heavy.
But this is a good scout Mech.. perhaps to make it resemble the original more, you could exchange the jumpjets for an extensive electronics suite and a bit more armour...

That's more like it! This scout is going to fit right in as a replacement for older Hermes mechs.

Bah, who needs C3?
Actually I liked the old one. 10/15/10 isn't something you find often. Maybe call it something other than a Hermes?

Icarus. The spelling varies a bit depending on your language, though.

Icarus fits.  I'll split it into two designs, Icarus and the hermes MX upgrade before I submit it to the tro.
Is it worth dropping a Flamer/ERMed and a ton of armour for a Tag and the C3 on the 10/15/0 hermes upgrade?

Do it like the FWL did, make variants of the Hermes when electronics become available. A TAG is easily mounted instead of a laser, but the C3 is a problem. Do you want all of your new models to have it, or only the mechs sent to certain top regiments? And why put C3 on a scout?
Skip the C3 and tell us about a variant MX that has a TAG instead of one of the lasers.
