This is sort of like a "Do you like Waffles" mech series. given the 300 Series of engine is dirt common, I though "lets make an entire line of mechs that use them" as part of the whole simplify logisitics style project. then I realized for the project to be viable I needed to use an XL engine to make it work so we coul;d have a series of lighter platforms. you win some you lose some right?
anyway I am just dumping the idea here.

You forgot to make a 25-tonner, 12/18 with ES and 3.5 tons FFA should leave 10.5 tons(9.5+1.5+3.5) for weapons and some JJs (no more than 6 or 7) to get you a pretty decent little ride.
I'd go with an ER Large laser, 6 JJs, ECM and Er Mediums or Smalls (for back up)
Sorry at work thus no SSW
EDIT: I forgot the weights for the gyro and cockpit, so this concept just won't work
-
An excellent concept!

I was working on a Omnimech project just like this. Very cool.

Hey JP,
This is such a great idea... I had to turn it into more... please accept my apologies in advance for the semi plagiarism... so I created a design challenge based around your initial idea... and added a few more rules and quirks... to make it interesting. Have a look at it and post up your designs there to see how things come out...

hey, I am just glad people thought the idea was cool. I was throwing something at the wall after I made a "Modern" Bellerphron.

An excellent concept!
Yes, as long as no one is shooting at you! ::)
