Okay folks thanks for your opinions and it looks like Bradshaw's concept of a faster Komodo has won out. Nice job!

To take this one step further if I may should we retain the larger 55 ton Great Komodo as the C3 Command element for these lances? By dropping the two Anti-Missile Systems (3 tons) and the C3 Slave (1 ton) from the design above we get awful close to the 5 tons needed for a C3 Master. We could shave off the last ton needed from either Heat Sinks or Armor. Me personally I am thinking one Double Heat Sink could be removed.

Just think of a lance of 3 Grand Komodos led by a Great Komodo! Death to elementals!!

If doing a Great Komodo to lead them with the C3 master why not a 60 tonner with same engine makes logistical sense.

I was actually thinking of a 60 tonner with a 300 XL (5/8/5) as the company commander (2 C3 Masters) with roughly the same weaponry (10 Medium Lasers).

Company commander could be the 75 ton variant all with 300 XL engines  ;)

75 tons is too heavy and slow (4/6/4) in my opinion for the King Komodo but the 300 XL is the reason I like the 60 ton (5/8/5) concept.

Agreed in combat speed is life, 60 tons is heavy enough
