So can we squeeze 4 UAC5s into this bad boy? Because it sure sounds like we can if we switch the FF for Endo and drop a couple of engine sizes?

That will be mental.

With no Lower Arm Actuators, the JM6-DD and JM6-S would have two ballistic hardpoints and ten open criticals per arm.
Each (IS-built) UAC/5 requires five criticals.

So, two of the three planned variants would be (barely) able to squeeze in quad UAC/5s...

XL is fine. Used for allowing for more weight, and this thing is a long range artillery sniper.

I've been dying to get my hands on this one.

Shave off armour and/or use SHS. 4 UAC/5 should melt any opponent within view and UAC/5 isn't very hot.

I tried this before I had posted this version....it was in the red on heat efficiency running 10 heatsinks. The version I screenshotted was superior on "usage of crits" and heat efficiency.

Fixing the flaws is what the Mechlab is for.

Look at how many people like the Hellbringer/Loki, I bet none of them like the canon armor values.

I R GUNNA FIX!!!!!!!!!

It might be worthwhile to drop a couple tons of UAC/5 ammo or reduce the engine rating to reinstall the Medium Lasers; it's always good to have something left to fire when the ammo bins run dry, yes?

Alternatively, mounting quad AC/5s (rather than the Ultras) frees up four tons and as many criticals - enough for the Medium Lasers and two more tons of ammo...

Just wait till the first shot jams all 4 of them.

Kallon executives have stated numerous times "No, we don't build a mech with 4 autocannons in it's arms because we want a steady source of replacement contracts, we build a mech with 4 autocannons, because with that much Dakka, you can't even hear yourself think, and that helps us stop having the nightmares we've been having of some evil communist sort of future-Star League like dudes invading and..., nevermind. It's got Dakka like nobody can dream. believe."

You gotta love a mech with as spoiler on it... Keeps it grounded at high speeds.
