I mostly like this, but I’m not really a big fan of the small laser (too short range vs armor and BattleMechs) in most circumstances.

Also, I would consider placing both ammo slots in the RT and just going with one CASE.

Between the two, this gives you an extra ton, which could be used to almost maximize the armor, or just add a second medium laser in the other arm. Or maybe an extra DHS or a C3 slave or a TAG.

Or you could drop a half ton of armor and give it a Beagle active probe or Guardian ECM suite.

All good points but this model is a basic line unit so in my eye it does not need the extra electronics, but the additional DHS or armor are worth another look.
