It looks nice, I wonder how the exaggerated 'fins' on the torso will affect hitboxes.

Look like they are part of the side torsos, might make running an XL in it a death trap.

Aesthetically I think the DD is going to look awesome. I am expecting (due to the stock UAC-5s) the arms will be rockin the tri-barrel cannon model as seen on the 5N Dragon, 3C Cicada and 3D 'Phract.

Will be an expensive customization as I imagine 80-90% of folks will want to remove the pointless FF in exchange for 100% necessary Endo Steel.

But it looks like you can Guass + SRM6 (no arty though)

As for the other guy ac/2 +lrm10 thats wrong stock on it is LRM 15 x2 + AC/2 x2 = Long range GG

You can.. but not sure if that's a good idea. As you wont be able to move very fast. Unless you cut down on armor. And you would be extremely ammo dependent.

And you can fit artemis as well. Because the Jagermechs arms lacks lower actuators.

At best guess, that is the Jager JM6-H

"JM6-H - The H variation is a late-era Periphery modification. The entire weapons loadout is replaced with two Large Lasers, two LB-X autocannon/2s with one ton of ammunition, and six Rocket Launcher 15s. Ten tons of ferro-fibrous armor are carried, and ten double heat sinks carry the heat burden of the heavy lasers."

However those are single use rocket launchers, and ...we don't have those in game yet. Also those look like AC-2 or AC-5 barrels. What is going on here?

Launchers appear to be LRM-15s. This isn't a canon setup, custom variant?

My big concern at first was "Twin AC-20 + 2*SRM-6's"
Now my concern is what if it comes with six missile hard-points?
Twin AC-20 + 6*SRM-6's.

...

Try again.
That's the JM6-A
2x AC2
2x LRM15
2x ML

The other variants will probably be the A and the DD.
There aren't any other variants aside from those 3 until 3054.

[Zeus X]

Per this time line, I see only 3 POSSIBLE variants for this mech.

JM6-A
JM6-S
JM6-DD

I wonder if will see the JM7 variants


JM6-S - The JagerMech mounts two pairs of Mydron autocannon; each arm is fitted with a Model C Medium Autocannon and a Model D Light Autocannon. Ammunition for these is carried in the torso, two tons for the class-5 autocannons and one ton for the class-2s, allowing for twenty full-strength volleys. The torso also mounts a pair of Magna Mk. II Medium Lasers. Ten single heat sinks dissipate waste heat generated by these weapons.[3]



JM6-A - Modified specifically for the anti-aircraft role, the A variant replaces both Autocannon/5s with Zeus LRM-15s with two tons of ammunition. Weight saved by the change allows the variant to add two tons of armor, approximately half a ton to each forward hit location. BV (1.0) = 841, BV (2.0) = 1,122[4]


JM6-DD - The DD was the first variation incorporating technology recovered from the Gray Death Memory Core. The DD replaces the standard engine with an XL model and converts the armor to Ferro-Fibrous, adding an additional half-ton. The Mydron Medium Autocannons are replaced by General Motors Nova-5 Ultra Autocannon, and the Magna standard lasers are replaced with Sutel Precision Line Medium Pulse Lasers. CASE is mounted in both side torsos to protect the ammunition, with the AC/2 ammunition moved to the left torso to take advantage of this. The original design's single heat sinks are retained. BV (1.0) = 713, BV (2.0) = 965[5]

Both the map and Jagermech look awesome. Can't wait.

[Bishop Steiner]

JM6-A. LRMs and autocannons. But I gotta admit, neither the Jager nor the Blackjack are among my favorites of Alex's redesigns.

its a JM6-A... Its too early for the H, we don't have LB 2-X, or rocket launchers.

2 AC/2, 2 LRM15, 2 ML

Could have sworn I read that on Sarna as having replaced all the auto cannons with the LRM-15s, but yeah according to this it replaces just the AC-5's. You're right. Must've misread it.

two LB-X autocannon/2s

If PGI ended up putting this thing in the game at some point I cannot even begin to imagine how utterly worthless it would be.

6 tons, 4 crits that fire 2 pellets that do 1 damage with ridiculous spread.

No thanks.

A variant. Stock is the S variant. DD also supposed to appear.

Jagermech rockin' some serious thunder thighs there! Legs look really fat with that body.

[Protection]

Strange, I imagined it to be fatter.



And more drunk.

[Vapor Trail]

JM6-DG is going to be faked long before we get the ERMeds to make the actual one.

And I was kind of hoping for some "Rifleman" style loadouts, Dual AC/5, and Dual Large lasers in the arms.


"JM6" - 3N anyone?

[Zeus X]

We could also see the JM6-AF, JM4-BC, JM6-F
