More mobile with the jumpjets, slightly less long range punch but more of a mid range and short range brawler. Runs a bit hot full out, but can be managed easily if not alpha striking. Cost is only about 15k c-bills more while attempting to keep it close to the 3025 original version (with a twist) or backround version (like having a MG but Ceres Metals forced to use a small laser). Was going to add some back story about the "Avenging Angel" variants and fluff it out but have writers block at the moment.

Doesn't the original Vindicator have a jumping of 4?

It would pair nicely with the original, filling in the short- and medium-range areas.

Oh, you are correct Cray. Comes with jump jets, was dead tired and lots of reading mechs "remove this" and "add that" it sort of all melted together. Probably another mech without jump jets and some variant that adds it.
