Someone asked about the ott line of mediums. I would suggest that when you update them, you make the arms more then just targets. I would suggest hands in them, so they can actually be useful.
Punchs comes to mind. Kicks can be dangerous to oneself if you have a bad piloting skill..

That would come under the heading of "keeping the spirit of the original". So definitely no Hand Actuators. I might mount some weapons for better firing arc.
If I was redesigning from scratch, I'd definitely include eithet Hands or Arm-mounted weapons, since there's no reason NOT to have the actuators.

Uh...
The normal GR weighs half the urbanmech's weight before ammo.

AC/20 would be more thematic, being a close-range weapon, but the Gauss could fit the concept, providing it's actually possible to fit one on an Urbie.

LGRs might work better, 3 tons lighter.

That would be pretty much a straight swap. Assuming we'reworkung in the right era.

That's all the shrimp.

The LB-10 would be a simple swap for the urbie as well. Almost perfect in fact.

That's what the TRO:3050 does. Upgrade the AC, add a SPL

Drop the SL, use DHS, and mount 2 of them.
Violates my self-imposed conditions for this project, but a great idea in general.
