Quit whining about the armor, guys. The Lightning is quite thick-skinned compared to the FWL's new Hermes models, mechs that draw the same sort of missions. Scouting, recon, harassment while heavier units handle head-on confrontation.

This machine isn't meant to get shot at and it's got the speed to run for it when necessary. The weapons package is heavy enough to damage other lights and the C3 lets team mates kick serious butt. Lacking CASE looks bad, but with light mechs (and IS XL engines) it's not very important anyway. Downed raiders can't be salvaged unless you're going to stay around, and then it's not a raid anymore.

My only complaint is the lack of hand actuators. I prefer my raider mechs with hands so they can grab the occasional valuable spare part or whatever you need to pick up.

I'll have to dock you a point for the missing hands.



Actually I dropped the hands for no other reason than that sometimes I just draw something and make mech around the picture, arms weren't part of it

So there's artwork for your mechs? Could you manage to get pictures hosted somewhere so we could see them?

Well sometimes I draw some small pics. If I'll find scanner somewhere I'll try to make gallery at lords of the battlefield (not too soon), but it's nothing extraordinary (at least I'm trying to avoid old TRO 3050 pic style).

I can host pics for you also, as long as they are small. I'll even go to the point of making up the 'mech in HMPro pic and all, then exporting an HTML TRO page hehe

After all I do it for myself all the time. Visit http://www.dubrin.net/shrike/ most don't have pics yet, but I'm working on it, albiet slowly.

[edit]
Forgot to note that none of my ones with pics have been uploaded yet, and they are all AeroSpace designs... But the TROs are there.
