I don't think the LRM's fit well with the dsign. It's almost crippled at close range as it now has a 6 hex minimum on half it's weapons and suffers a20% decrease in firepower with it's primary weapon. Also it's slow speed and light mech armor help to make me think the trade-off isn't worth it.

I do not like this one for the same reason I do not like the Panther...too slow .Worse it has less than full armour a JR-7F Jenner would have this for lunch an LCT-1E locust would give it fits .

Well, I never liked the Panther. It's solid, and I appreciate its effectiveness, but I've never quite liked it.
But this one loses the things I appeciate in the Panther - strong firepower at long range, with a good weapon in case someone gets too close.
It's sort of an anti-Panther - doing everything in reverse. And it doesn't quite come out well.

Man, I'm a Panther die hard. 6 in my Regiment. I'm not liking this. Instead of the Alley Cat, its now the blind incontinent Cat who can't fight in close.
 . Just try to take it objectively. I'm odd, its not bad, but its definately not a Panther.

Panther die hard? You've only got 6 in your regiment? Sheesh, for a die hard I'd expect you to have at least 10% of your regiment to be Panthers.
