Good movement and protection.  Kool image.  Just seems kinda "blah"  Not that  it's bad....just plain.

[Sabelkatten]

Mongoose much? ;)

It's a nice enough design, but IMHO the image looks terrible. What kind of armor protection is that?

[packhntr]

Now that you mention it....Mongoose is quite fitting.....very similar.

[fallen]

I like it.  Its got the firepower of the Mercury 99 with better range.  Its got the protection of a Mongoose.  It has the speed of a Hermes plus MASC.  Is Word of Blake involved with this Mech?

[Andras]

The art looks like a Proto or an Ultralight to me, here's a 15t version that's half the cost. A little slower, but has the same firepower.

If I clicked the MPs up to 9/14, I can get full FFA to fit, but I loose 0.5t armor due to the extra engine weight, and only get 44pts that way.

eta- Protomech apparently designed in error.

[packhntr]

Hmmmm....

The Ultralight is nice, but suffers a bit from the small cockpit, XL Gyro and less armor.  The slightly reduced speed isn't too bad. 
Now, the Protomech.  That's just mean. 

[Sabelkatten]

That proto can't be right. It says 5 tons, but it's packing 10.5 total...

I'm guessing it's supposed to be 15 tons?

I dunno really, I used the Remlab online doohickey and must not have used it right. I have next to no knowledge of Protos.

Does this work at 9 tons?

[Sabelkatten]

REMLab seems to have some issues... The last design is legal anyway if you delete the armor on the (nonexistent) main gun. :)
