Good refit, it lost the medium lasers, but it's still unable to deal with those it has. The best thing is probably added ammo and new guns. I'm not sure, from TRO it seems that the Star League had only 10-X ACs, smaller and bigger guns were invented by the clans and reverse engineered later (with ultras other than UAC/5). I don't like it more than 3N and I think that for SLDF it would be done differently, but ... |

A pretty good refit.
The large lasers are straightforward, so theres no need to be fancy with em. Just point and shoot.
The LBX's are good for light damage, or for anti elemental work with the cluster rounds. The clusters will also let you find weak points in your target and get a lucky hit or two.
Dropping the medium lasers is more of a blessing in disguise. One, theres less weapons building up heat. Something that this mech needs to avoid. Two, it forces the pilot to consider withdrawing once the ammo is gone, rather than staying in the fight with a pair of high-heat weapons. Shutdowns suck.
CASE grants a measure of protection against critical hits or heat cookoffs of the ammo.
Decent for fire support, and some brawling duty. Keep your eyes on the heat scale, though, or you wont have to worry about your enemy killing you. |

I like the Rifleman design line. But I see some flaws in this one. Lack of a backup weapon system. Sounds funny in a mech with 4 weapons. But it is still something to be looked into. Good damage and range. Poor armor and heat problems have not been dealt with enough. CASE helps alot to salvage the chassis after ammo explosions. However if you do get an ammo hit you lost 50% of your weapons. I would like to see a pair of medium lasers in the central torso for backup incase of catastrophic weapons failure such as loss of an arm. |
