Unfortunately this is not the Official Blackjack BJ-3 that was released by FASA way back when.
That design was quite nice for its day, now it is in reality probably out powered. It has 2 standard PPC's, 4 standard Medium lasers, standard chassis, standard armor and standard fusion engine. Doesn't sound too interesting yet does it? What it does have that makes it good is 10 double heat sinks. Allowing it to fire both main weapons slowly building heat from movement, and more than enough to keep it cool running if...IF...it gets down to that range of 3 where the PPC's are at thier minimum and ML's are at short range. |

Pretty good for a mid-weight brawler. The speed seems a bit low for its weight, but the jump ability off sets that a bit.
The weapons, Im sorry to say, have been done before, but Im not sure if theyve been done to this extent.
The DHS cant keep up with a full alphastrike, though. A little bit of fire discipline, though, can keep this mech running cool enough to avoid any troubles. Still, if you have a perfect shot that you just -cant- miss, fire em all and hope you roll good on that Overheat check.
The armor is good for its weight, but isnt meant to stand up to serious firepower like gauss rifles and AC 20s.
As an infantry support mech, or as a mech to hunt down lighter mechs, this is going to do nicely. |

A true blue bracket fighter.
Unlike what oafman says this thing can jump AND fire both ER LLs without overheating. Can't say the same for the ER MLs, but it's still pretty generous. Would have been happier with standard MLs (or one less er ML...).
Slow but heavily armoured and hard to kill. THeres no ammo to blow up and no XL engine to destroy.
This blackjack might actually see use guarding heavier fire support mechs or acting as fire support mechs themselves. |

Slow, but very dangerous and durable laser boat. Cheap and fast enough for city defense or sniping when the enemy is occupied. Panther pilots won't be happy to see this. |

You really like the ER lasers don't you? While the firepower is quite large, the actual usable firepower is almost none. With only 28 heat sinks when ever you move and fire both lg lasers this thing will over heat. Not to mention the fact that you have another 25 heat to maintain for all those med lasers. This means you can either fire one or the other. For me I do not like those odds. |
