Just thought I would make another design of a Hunter/Killer mech.
Just to keep things simple lets just say it is another version of the CDA.
Class: MEDIUM
Walk Speed: 6
Run Speed: 9
Jump Speed: 0
Heat Sinks: 12
Armor: 8 tons
Head: 9
RA/LA: 11
CT: 15/6
RT/LT: 14/5
RL/LL: 19
Weapons:
PPC - RT
SL - CT
SL - LL
SL - RL
Heat Sinks: 1 located in the RT, 1 in LT, 1 in CT

Well it has More armor than a CDA less speed and more short range weponds and it now has enought heat sinks to run and fire the PPc (finally  ). if these were ever made they would be in the arena like crazy. much like we now see Orion ks in the arena.

your not really putting that thing in the same class as a orion?
MAYBE if it were 0 gun.. vs a 4 or 5 gun orion.. then MAYBE it would have a chance.

I doubt he was trying to compair the mech's fighting abilities to that of an Orion. I bet if you pick pretty much any 40 ton mech and put it up against a 75 ton mech that the 75 ton mech will have the edge.
I think he was just talking about its arena popularity. Orion's are a popular dueling mech, I get the impression that he just ment that this version of the CDA would be popular too.
*cackles* and of course the next post that I read says the exact same thing I said here.

There are some pretty tough sub 45's outthere. But many of them arent until the later techs,  . But if you took later tech theres that 35toner, forget the name, its got a boat load of weps and can take a punishment. is there clan tech in neveron? if so a shadowcat would own an orion anyday imo.

Neveron is level 1 tech only, which would be why we do not have many hunter/killer mechs.

Neveron runs pretty much exclusively using level 1 tech (the exceptions being the Raven, Turtle, Swiftwind XLR, Pillager, pretty much anything you have to donate for). Clan is exclusively level 2 tech. Ergo, no Clan tech. Sorry, lad.

I fail to see how this mech would be useful at all, you want a good solid meduim mech, get a enforcer.

Way to be a month late pimp. ;P
Anyway, the enforcer is a terrable hunter/killer mech. That is what this mech I designed is.
Sure it has 4/6/4 movement, but it is still far too slow to be a hunter/killer. A hunter/killer needs to be able to chase down and kill an enemy, your enforcer never would.
The best mech forces are not comprised of all mechs with big guns. The best mech forces have big mechs slugger mechs, fast scouting and harrassment mechs, and a few specialist mech forces. The hunter/killer would be under the specialist mech force.

I just looked at the furry and you are right. Only thing I will say is that SL are much better then Flamers on a hunter killer in my mind, though against a mech with poor heat disapation I could see the flamers being ok... if you didn't mind generating 3 heat to cause your opponet 1.

yea, I'd rather SL's too. just as long as I don't run into some infantry.
I think teh fury's flamers might have 2/4/6 range, but I can't check because there are no mechs on the market
