Inner Sphere Plasma Rifles?

That would be redundant.

But awesome.

Just think of all the things you could set on fire!

As a huge fan of the Omni-Starter, I want this to be a thing.

I created an improvised config out of the Prime where I replaced the two Large Lasers with a single Plasma Rifle, two tons of ammo and a Medium Pulse Laser. The idea was to get a similar heat profile while having a backup should something happen to the Plasma.

I'm just surprised that there's no Plasma Rifle config of the Omni-Firestarter

I actually have a Custom Pod load w/ one in my current mercs campaign group.

I call it the "P" configuration.

Plasma, 3 Mediums, and ECM+C3S+TAG to spot & destroy.

Is there a way to search the MUL for all plasma rifle equipped mechs?

Not exactly, but you can find some of them by searching for the AS heat trait, which I believe is HT.  That will find any Plasma Rifle, Cannon, or bundle of flamer death.

You can also create a log in at this fan developed site and search for Plasma Rifles here:

The reason I don't mention it first is it won't sort cannon designs from customs.  So if you can't spot the customs, refer to the MUL to weed them out.

MegaMekLab can find em

Thank you good sir.

The last person to suggest that probably ended up being dumped into subarctic conditions without survival gear, I suspect.

I'm not sure if we should bring this to the devs or to Randall Munroe!

I think Randal Munroe already answered a very similar question: Relativistic Baseball. Basically, a bunch of Bad Things Happen.
