since these were on sale I figured what the hell.

I swapped the engines because I wanted the LPL wunderwub. Will swap a 320xl in there at some point.

Can't find anything on the 7k though so I went with this to maximize the quirks

I prefer the term 'Wuberine'.

due to lack of cbills I ended up setting up my 7k with 3xLRM5+A and 3 MPL, STD275 and 4 tons of ammo. having quite a fun time with it. Was too lazy to want to buy SRM6s+A and I drained my cbills

3xSRM6+A and 3xML

or

3xSMR6 + 3xMPL

Unequivocally ASRM18&3ML. SRM6s without Artemis are always and only a desperation choice.

7K with ASRM18 and 3ML is fanastic, IMO.

now what about the 6R?

seems very limited with a STD engine, like it needs an XL. So far I don't like it as much as the others but I only have the STD275. With something like a XL265 can dual AC5 with SRMS but is that worth it?

out of the 3, the R is my least favorite right now.

The 6R is great - Ac/5 40% cooldown, + ac/5 cooldown module 12.5% + elite weapons cooldown 5%: that's total of 57.5% cooldown - switch to chainfire and it heats up so slowly. Your a Space Marine Terminator with a Assault cannon but your not so hot at ridge humping due to the low right arm!

I have 195 shells loaded and I normally use up 80% of the ammo a match...
Yes use XL to get more space for ammo, because as soon as you lose the right arm...you have a dagger as backup(ML), not much use....

so do you just run 2xAC5 + XL engine? what size?

I can see either going with like a 290 to 305 and just 2xAC5+ML or dropping to like a 265 where I can 2xAC5 + either 3xSRM2 or even 3xSRM4.

Damn I forgot the XL size - it runs at 81kph so not that big, I know its not that fast but you really need ammo rather then speed.

I did forget I add a SRM4 as a another backup because losing the right arm makes the 6R almost impotent...

Its fun when a enemy med/heavy faces you and laughs until you spit so much lead in his face!

The WVR-6R is a mini DRG-1N and as such a true little monster. I have only 17 matches in it so far. But 28 kills for 6 deaths does say something for this mech. ;)

I put an AC10 and SRM's in my 6R.

And yes, this is one of the most under rated mechs in teh game

This mech is still rare in the field - I barely see any wolverines! All 3 variants are great fun.

Two Wubtastic mechs and a Mini Dakka!
3LPL+1ML+SRM6
1LPL+3MPL+2SRM6
2AC5+1ML+SRM4

I'm torn on what engine to put in my 6K. Hands down I'm putting 3x LPL in it. XL325 is a beast of an engine, but a XL310 would give me 3 more tons to play with, make it go 100kph with speed tweek, and I think that is an acceptable reward for getting all three.

Just go XL300, 3x LPL, 1x ML, 3x extra DHS.

97.2kph is fine when your effective LPL range is 584M with the module.
