Okay you are getting somewhere.  you got the artillery range and the point defense. 

I would consider swapping out some of the SRMs for either MMLs or LRMs so you can deploy minefields to cover the approach.

your anti infantry defense is almost TOO layered and rely oin point blank range or being swarmed, some additional Lasers might be a better bet.

  Swapping LRMs for SRMs is an interesting idea. I could get 3 LRM-5s for the 2 SRM-6s. The Arrow IVs can also lay down minefields but that requires allocating some of their ammunition for minefield duties. The way that Total Warfare treats laser damage against infantry, I'm not sure adding more lasers is the way to go for anti-infantry duties, especially when I'll have to add additional heat sinks for the lasers. And if I did swap out the SRMs for LRMs, I'd keep a couple of LRM rounds in reserve for anti-infantry duties. It might hurt a little but I could also fire artillery rounds at range 1 and the splash damage would help deal with swarming infantry or Battle Armor.
