                   Specials: ecm



The idea here was to design a heavy mobile fire support platform.

PPCs were chosen as the main weapon for their ability to provide good punch, punch that can threaten even other mechs. SRM 4s are good all-around weapons that can deal damage to just about anything. The flamer is meant to take out infantry, battle armor, and light vehicles.

The jump jets not only allow the mech to move in and out of position swiftly, they also allow the prospect of a death from above. ECM makes both tactics more effective, as the mech is harder to spot and target once spotted. TSM was added in recognition of the fact that twin PPCs and jump jets are going to build up heat: the mech can move that much faster when attempting to fall back.

Thoughts?

Thanks.
