So,

I was bored last night and started playing with some of thos designs that never hit a sweet spot with me. I've never been a fan of the original Cerberus, but didn't hate the PPC armed variant. This is what I came up with.

First off, keep the basic components of the original including the electronics, XL engine, and standard chassis. Next, remove everything but the AMS weapons wise. Replace the MPLs with ERMLs which is fairly straight forward. The big change comes from the arms. One GR and ammo is replaced with a Light GR and 32 shots. The other is replaced with an ERPPC and 3 L-PPCs, all in the arms. This is a bit odd, but the idea is you can plink at range with the LGR and ERPPC, so nobody will play the range game, yet increase firepower as you close with the Lights. At point blank drop the L-PPCs for the ERMLs. The extra tonnage goes to extra DHS and as much FF as I could scrape together. It still is not maxed out, but it is much, much improved over the original.

The XL is still a weakness as is the lack of secondary electronics (C3, ECM etc) on the modern battlefield, but in the end you have a assault that can keep up with heavies and packs a good all around punch.
