I like it. A nice, all around Star League, or 3050s medium. It fits well in the role of a new tech 3050s mech, using all the bells as whistles available. I can also see it as a SLDF mech, with a few changes, mainly the streaks not fitting if you use 2 packs.

Yes the Streak 6 was a change I made after it was pointed out that I could swap the old SRM for it. So I did. It made it a bit better in the longer run of a fight, but the mech wasn't anything super special but it did well enough and it was on I could take to the local conventions for open play without a lot of folks crying, yet still fielding 100 ton uber mechs.

Laugh is you made a design where the DHS almost feels like a waste of technology.

I do have a variant where I swapped the mediums for ER mediums, thus add some more over all heat.

For a while this was one mech that I used far more then not, when my group would play, it had that I am here, and I can do the damage of a Hunchback etc...it was fun times all around.
