Honestly, I am finding that the 8V is the best one of the Awesomes. AWS-8V with no LRM or PPC convergence issues

It is nice having three LRM-5's fire from a single location. It concentrates their hit quite a bit, and weighs 1 ton less than the single LRM-15 it is supposed to have.

Same goes for having two PPC cannons in the left torso. They're basically an AC-20 with a lot of range and no issues with convergence. They both fire from the same port and resemble a single shot.

Round it out with a Large Pulse Laser for close in work, and a TAG to combat ECM.

I have been surprised by how well this is working for me. My K/D is 6.00 right now with it, but I've only played it about a dozen games so far. It will clearly go down from here.

The 9M is on sale this weekend, if anyone wants to jump into the wonderful world of Awesomes.

And yes, Hans Von Lohman, I think the 8V is one of the better 8 series Awesomes. I run mine with 3 LLs (screw ghost heat!) and 3 SRM6s. If they ever fix SRMs, it will be legit.

Yeah I run my 9m with 1xLL 2xLPL and 2xSRM6 with a std 300 or xl 365. It doesn't fare well now but muh nostalgia from all the fun I had with it a year ago.
