Vindicator 5LOL
« on: 24 October 2018, 08:31:38 »
A simple mod to the Vindicator 5L. We upgrade to an XL engine and Endo Steel, while keeping the laser array, but swap the ER PPC for a more brawling suited Large Pulse laser.

The mech truly becomes a fearsome head hunter when you realize that the TSM sword does 12 points of damage, and that most mechs won't have the speed or maneuverability to escape it.

Very nice! Loving THIS Vindie, and no doubt so are the Capellans and their Death Commandos... :thumbsup:

I didn't realize the OG model was a thing until last week: a very nice mod for it!

I did a conversion for the original 5L, but it could easily be used for this version as well.

Death Commandos for sure!
