A very acceptable cheap weapons platform. The Artemis make it perfectly acceptable for mercenaries or units with ammunition or money problems which prevents large scale supplies.
Case and no XL increase survivability making it an all round excellent Merc and Small state usage mech.
Also note that you can easily upgrade 3025 era Archers to this configuration, as you can with any of the 17 series of 'mechs I've been designing; no endo steel, DHS, or XL engines. The armor will be expensive though, but that's what gives you extra space to fit on all of the extra stuff you want in an upgraded design, like CASE or Artemis FCS. _________________ "The enemy's gate is down."

Its a damn good design, simple but effective, it was a perfect opponent for one of my custom mechs which i am planning to use for your design competition. The archer beat it hands down so it was back to the drawing board!
