I warned of the balance between speed, armor, and weapons as well as weapon heat. He wanted a fast unit and I described the range and he chose 50 ton. He wanted limited jump and I warned that heat would always be 3 or more so he chose 3 jump; I also discussed the jump height effect for clearing obstructions. I discussed each weapon type's benefits and back-draws. He liked the idea of the LL as a primary and toyed with 3 ML as secondary, but settled on the ML/SRM4 combo instead. I helped him divide the armor amongst the non-head locations after maxing the HD but he decided on the final distribution, even considered my warning on back armor thickness. He chose the critical distribution with me only describing the risks of putting ammo certain places. He did good for his 1st outing.
