That is a good comparison. This one sniped most of the battle and really didn't get into the close infighting tell quite late in the battle.

Too ammo driven. Needs one energy weapon.

I would replace the Gausses with ERPPCs. Two eppers should weight as much as one gauss. Add 6 heatsinks to take care of your heat. And if I did my math right (Which is rare) You should have 4 tons left. Which can be used for jump jets.
Of course if you do that. It would be a Timberwolf variant but with less missles. And alot like the Marauder you are trying to create a variant for. only with missles.
But I like the streak idea. Streaks are excellent companions for the heavy hitting weapons. The bigger weapons fire first. and the streaks hunt for the crits.
All in all. I would have to agree that it is a ammo dependant mech. But you have enough for most trails that the clans love to do. And the design is not bad. not bad at all. But at the same time. it is by no means a Marauder.
Give it a diffrent name. Like Mad Dog, no wait that is already taken. Mad Cat. nope also taken.
OH OH I know. C-KO

How about replacing 1 Gauss with a ERPPC and A few Heatsinks. And Call it the Rabid Dog.....

A marauder without ppc's of any kind is not a maruader. go ahead and call it something else

Seeing how I didn't make this, I am not going to change the name of some one else's work.
If you want to rename it and use it that is up to you.

Ty Icer. Chihawk, are you referring to the name or the mech itself?
