Remember that this one was used in the 4th Succession War around 3029/3030. This is not a "New Aera Mech".
It is a -1V with TSM to boost speed (rather useless in close combat but a 8 point kick from a 20 tonner isn´t that bad). It has to shut down heatsinks and a 2 turn delay to switch it on but after this you can easyly hold your heat at 9:
Fire your laser (even if there´s nothing worth hitting), run all the time (a locust should do this anyway) and only keep 5 heatsinks running. |

This is the same Locust as the old 1V with the ability to move at 9/14 speed. The TSM is a little tricky to keep engaged, but that is no big problem. New technologies took away some edge the old Locust had, but this machine is still pretty good in what it does and for this cost it's perfect. |

Its about this time that the Locusts and indeed, most 20 ton mechs start to lose effectiveness. Pulse lasers and targeting computers really play havoc with lighter mechs. Don't be tempted to use this guy as a light striker on anything modern. Even with the TSM, its not worth it.
Keep it moving and keep it hidden. Other than that this really has no real uses. |

Pointless addition of TSM. It's still a locust, but in the new era, it's just cannon fodder |

what's the point in having tsm if you can't overheat your mech to use it? take out the mg's and the ammo replace it with two med lasers, otherwise it's just pointless. |
