Overview:
Just saw talk on MW:Online about how wonderful the Stalker was. Lots of people
are hoping its the next one added/revealed.
Ran an upgrade using SNPPC for LL and MML9 for all of the missiles. That combo
makes the lasers redundant so I dumped them and added some serious AI with the
small pulse lasers.
Now, what some folks might not care for so much is that it's become a bit of an
alpha-strike mech, which is way out of character for a Stalker - especially from
1-9 hexes where the 3F yields multiple overheat combinations. The plethora of
guns and combo may make the origial a bit more flexible.
My upgrade carries a about 2x the LRM ammo and a bit less SRM. I rigged it for
Artemis, but there are enough slots to run some other specialty rounds too. I
almost put in an ECM instead of the small pulse lasers, and probably still
could put it in anyway if I cut the armor back to 3F levels.

Looks like it has desirable stuff typical for the era. Plus with my memory of the Stalker mission in MW2, it has great weapons for city fighting. I would ride it, even with the better heat management. Good job!

MMLs: What ATMs tried (and failed horribly) to be.
This is a useful overhaul. I'm not an SPL fan, but the main guns are potent at short range. The extremely long short range of the SNPPC is a useful feature with which I'm still coming to terms.
