That 10 med / DHS design is not a valid comparison anyway.... AC 20 is L1 tech DHS is L2....
If we use an UAC20 and DHS then you still use more weight... 18 tons min (you need that 3 tons of ammo so you can double fire at the right times... I even go 4 tons ammo in fights against heavy / assaults.
now we get 16 tons = no heat buildup (weapons and movement heat = 0), 50 possible damage clustered in 5 point shots but because of all the dice your rolling you'll almost never hit with all.... even if you have 80% chance you hit about 8 times... for 40 spread out damage
OR
18 tone no heat buildup (20 heat sink capacity > 7 or 14 heat from weapon + move heat =0), 40 possible damage grouped into 20 point shots and with only 2 dice being rolled you will hit with both more often then not.... sure you have the possibility of a jam.... but that's only a small chance.
I know i'd prefer the AC..... if those two shots hit the same location then it's internal damage on almost anything.
