Can you do it... I guess.

You will get about one round of and then melt in to a puddle of slag. Or someone will look at you funny and you will explode.

You would be the most awesome long range turret in history.

I'm more excited about the prospect of THIS.

I hope they have pinpoint alphas sorted by October, as the BLR has the potential to rock more cheese than all the dairy farms. Ever.

Even now an alpha means internal dmg.

It'd be interesting to see how much internal damage you take from the overheating that would result.

Wouldn't be too bad if you were just a turret. Hot maps, movement ect would almost double shutdown time as well as give you almost a full minute of cooloff/gauss only to clear the heat.

Possible. Only in theory. It is in no way viable on the battlefield though. Another mechlab app shows that even with the cooling pilot tree upgrades an alpha strike would get you at 108% heat. So yes, you can put 7 PPCs on a Battlemaster, but you'd be an *****.

Nah, this will be the norm: BLR-1G .
Not sure if joking or foresight...

It's worth a try, but 36kph....Ugh. The torso twist and arm movement speed will be in the toilet. If you have time to creep to a point and about 5 seconds to line up a shot on a stationary target....that target is smoke :(

THEN....You shut down and cook your internals.

I'd still try it *shrug* LOL

yeah, me and a few others already built and showed the "Bogeyman" last week.

Mind you, if you survive long enough to get a Commando in your sights..... poor little guy will evaporate..... but so will you right after.

I use this: http://mwo.smurfy-ne...dc9b1facbf6adc9

Seems like higher DPS than PPC.

There are downsides of this build. So it can be countered easely.
Note that I didnt put armor and engine(sinks).

I used to run something very similar to that, and the thought still makes me chuckle.

Feast your eyes on THIS however. SPEEEEEEED.
