Comment:
A classic design. On the plus-side: fast and mobile, sufficient armor, good firepower. On the minus-side: runs too hot and too much MG-ammo.
Ideal for hit and run tactics. The MG´s are a bit problematic here: Ammo is very dangerous on such a hot-running Mech that needs 2 heatsink instead so badly. But they are useful against infantry and you have something to fire even if you can´t afford any additional heat.

Comment:
This mech is an excellent scout hunter and raider. With high speed and good jump it can pick weaker targets and is hard to catch by those who can harm it. If you still manage to get yourself killed due to ammo explosion than you probably need to learn something about firing discipline (which is quite vital for any mech other than somewhat boring alpha-boats). Armor is strong enough to withstand a few hits, but don't try to attack PPC carriers too often, or you may find yourself among the dispossessed. Keep on mind that it isn't a mech for heavy/assault slug-fests (unless there is an easy way to flank the enemy) and you'll be fine.

Good firepower high speed poor heat capacity.
Ideal for leading scout lances, hunting scouts.
It's also good for training (along with the chameleon).Teaches new pilots how to manage heat.

Comment:
Its the premier scout hunter of 3025. Whats not to respect.
I've had some bad luck with mauraders and a AC 5 and PPC both hitting the right arm and taking out my large laser in round one. But thats mostly my fault for leaving a medium against an assault.
Strong armour considering it usually tangles with scouts who pack little in firepower and armour. Watch your heat though since it can be a challenge to remember its a 3025 design.

The king of the skies in 3025. This is the ideal medium for this time period. As long as you manage your heat well this mech has the ability to turn the tide in any battle. It can keep out of the way of the big guys and the little ones don't dare get too close. Overall a very nice mech.
