Just a recreation, I think, of my old Von Steuben tank from previous boards. Nothing says "Hello!" quite like eight medium lasers and an AC/20. :)

A real defensive tank for cities and other hard to reach places.

And for variety you could swap out the AC/20 for a gauss or a pair of LRM-15's.

I always held that many energy weapons on a combat vehicle is a bad idea, you eat up mass in heat sinks. have you considered X Tech Chemical lasers.

Agreed about energy weapons eating up too much mass but I couldn't pass up the medium laser spam. :)
Chemical lasers - They'd be wonderful on this but since I usually design for Age of War and Succession War periods they'd be a bit outta place. :(

Good thing about the new QuadVee Double Heats

The obligatory SRM spam version.
