Not bad, but I pity whoever you are "protecting" with that Flamer.  One other thing I would consider looking into is Ferro-Lamellor armor because it lets you get beyond maximum normal protection and improved Jump Jets because in a city jump MP means a lot more than ground movement.

[Isaac Cameron-Wolf]

Nah, im not much for IJJs or the new armor type ATM... i like to keep things "classic".

[Diablo48]

Fair enough, there is some merit to sticking with tournament legal technology, and you could probably get the extra jump MP for less weight with a bigger engine anyways.  Of course, the Flamer is still an issue, but that could easily be swapped for a Light Active Probe to give you an information advantage over the enemy.

[Isaac Cameron-Wolf]

Yes i thought about the LAP, but i felt the Flamer w/SPL was good enough for crowd control. But ya, LAP is a sound trade off.

[Diablo48]

Ordinarily I would agree with you, however fire is a bad thing to be throwing around a city you want to keep.  It tends to but it down.

[bblaney]

Not bad, but too mission specific, IMO.

An IS Enforcer is an all purpose mech, this clan one though isn't.

Perhaps upping speed to 4/6/4 and taking an Ultra AC/10???

Ditch the flamer though, can't burn down what your protecting.

Enjoy!!!!

[bblaney]

While it doesn't carry as much weaponry as your model, here is my take on it, and only 40 tons to boot.

Carrier an ERML instead of the original LL the original carried, matches the range and nearly same damage as it.

Gave it a BFG too, kept with your liking of LB-20X AC, so it can hurt you bad.

Kept original movement profile and carries 7 tons of ff armor.

And it's electronic warfare equipment is cutting edge that is commonly available, able to find you if your hiding, able to hide when needed.

C3 and Targeting Comps don't worry this machine at all.

Nice work bblaney, although it could really use an anti-infantry weapon of some form because infantry can be brutal lurking in cities.  I would get this by pulling a half ton of armor from the legs for a Micro Pulse Laser, although you could also gain 5 tons if you are not too attached to the 40 ton frame which might let you fit in another ERML for close combat on top of the extra plating and pulse laser.  All that being said, it is lunch for a larger, faster, and more expensive urban combatant like a properly configured Timber Wolf or Summoner, and even the mighty Dire Wolf can outmaneuver it with iJJs.

Also, on the subject of ECM I should mention that it does not affect TCs, and on an urban combatant like this jamming C3 nets is far less important than jamming enemy probes so you can set up ambushes.

IIRC though, ECM does prevent location targeting doesn't it? Or am I going senile?

Option two. :D

ECM does not affect TCs in any way, it only jams C3, Artemis IV, NARC, and probes.  There are also a few non-tournament legal uses like ECCM mode to jam hostile ECM, but for the most part it is just those four systems it obstructs.

Damn, so I am going senile, well hopefully I'll forget my exwife then, that way those years will seem better.

 Ah yes,keeping things classic by changing a venerable IS design to a smaller clan one and changing its battlefield roll . Just teasin man
