This build contains both a UAC/5 and normal AC/5 to provide more firepower than a simple pair of AC/5, but also prevents new users from double-jamming themselves. It carries 5 tons of ammo for a potential of 750 ballistic damage points delivered in a long-range platform that's Alpine-Friendly. A pair of overhead Medium Lasers and 2 more Side Torso-mounted Medium Lasers are mounted for back-up weapons and brawling support. The 260 Standard Engine and neigh-maximum Armor offers battlefield resiliency, and the Lasers are spread throughout the Mech chassis to ensure you'll keep those guns blazing until the end.

My approach was to design a 'mech that could still hit hard, even after running out of ammo or losing the AC altogether. To this end I gave it 2 Large Pulse Lasers, which also give it the ability to dish out damage at range. If worst comes to worst, it has two Small Lasers as a last-resort back-up. Ideally, this 'mech would have 3 weapon groups: the LB 10-X in 1, the Large Pulse Lasers in 2, and the Small Lasers in 3.

The LPL have the potential to run somewhat hot, but this is an issue that can be dealt with easily by chain-firing. The LB 10-X gives it crit-seeking capabilities and a good way to chase off lights.

This loadout would be equally well suited to remaining at the edges of a skirmish and picking damaged and distracted enemies apart piecemeal or a direct brawl.

Build notes: Started life as an exact duplicate of the Caesar with accommodations made for the change in position of the pair of rear mounted MPLs. Tried with both 4 MPL of the original and mixed 2 ML + 2MPL, but it just ran too hot. So all were downgraded to standard mediums while AMS with one ton of ammo and 2.5 tons of armor were added to make up the weight difference. C.A.S.E. was run, but without RnR is redundant and has been removed in favor of an additional .5 ton of armor added to the center torso and legs. Still runs warm, but lacks risk of heat induced ammo explosion (Survival of AMS ammo explosion due to damage from weapons fire has been experienced). 3 or 4 weapons groups with the fourth being used to control for heat. The ER PPC has been surprisingly functional and impressive when used alone while cooling down, but still engaging targets.

Build Notes: Finding the Large Laser unimpressive, a PPC too hot as a substitute and disliking the jamming of the Ultra AC/5, a Gauss Rifle was a simple solution for long range firepower with it being found that 4 tons provided significant endurance (3 tons was tried, but expenditure problems were experienced durning protracted engagements). A pair of Streak SRM 2s were added as a simple, but effective means of accurate and ammo efficient supplement for the trio of Medium Lasers. In practice the presence of ECM and subsequent denial of SRMs was not found to be a significant denial of firepower and the Streaks acted as a solid deterrent against all but the most determined of light 'Mechs not mounting ECM. Minimal heat discipline is required only during the most intense of engagements.

The Machine Gun and its corrisponding ammunition or Anti-Missile System and the same may be removed to accomodate a Beagle Active Probe. If I could do half ton MG Ammo lots I would drop 8 pts of armor from each leg and add another ton of Gauss Ammo to the head.

Max Jump Jets: 0

I designed this off my current Flame build. It's very heat efficient and gives you great range options. The medium lasers will be the bulk of your damage while the UAC5 and LRM10 are for longer range direct and indirect fire. The LRM10 provides a backup against lighter or faster mechs trying to escape you. The UAC5 can provide good burst damage against heavier mechs. Like my Flame this should be a very effective brawler and ranged fighter.

Wepon groups
1 - 4 Medium Lasers on Chain fire
2 - UAC5
3 - LRM10

This build is well rounded and fun. Med lasers in arms to fight off light, PPC in torso for long range punch, LB 10-X for intimidation, brawl power, maintaining fire when Beam weapon heat starts to tax heatsinks in a brawl.

Primarily a brawler, designed to get into range and bring that AC/20 into the fight. Moves a decent speed (64.8km/h), and carries a pair of jumpjets in order to navigate rough terrain.
