The UAC20 bites! Its heavy, wastes ammo, and is only good to scare light mech pilots. My 10 MLs would wipe the battle field with your UAC20 armed mech! If you want something that is worth anything go with a GR at least you have some decent range. Something that is a piece of junk is the clan Hunchback IIC. Talk about a joke! If you are given one to pilot you might as well use the ammo to dig your own grave.

Placing a L3 custom mech against a inferior designed canon mech is hardly a fair fight. Even the fluff on the IIC says its a last ditch mech. Hardly befitting a true clan warrior. Without max tech in front of me (I am at work) I was wondering if Laser Reflective armor was available in L3 to the clans. A UAC20 with 4 tons of ammo 55tonner with a movement profile of 6/9/6 (masc12) and 2 ERML would easliy do what it is supposed to do: Get behind and open the soft spot in the rear with a giant can opener. I could probably place the dreaded targeting computer onto it with some of the L3 weight reduction items and just plough through a side torso.

Alright, folks, enough with the thread drift into "my custom is kewler than yours." The topic is the LBX autocannon, not UACs vs MLs vs L3 custom 'Mechs. Don't make me lock the thread.
