But a Jenner with 4 missle hard points is steal the vital role that is held by the mighty LCT-1S!

What will the legions of LCT-1S streak boats do now? How will they feed their thousands of Locust spawn?

I say that this is an abomination!

I think it'll be more like 5 missle hard points. When they fix SRM hit detection, I bet this thing will sting.

oh good, cram these with SSRMs so everyone feels forced to run their ECM mechs.

bad idea, bad idea! I love jenners but...no jump jets, nothing but missiles? A light mech with limited space for ammunition and no choice of weapons that are not ammo dependent. No!

Its okay, a Jenner running as slow as the rumors point probably won't last long enough to use the ammo.

The rumors mean nothing, because the stats are already public.

It runs the same 300XL as other jenners, just no JJs and 20% slower acceleration. i.e. it`s just as fast as any other jenner , Raven, Cicada, or ECM light. It just takes a wee bit longer to get up to speed.

No JJs and 20% slower acceleration, I can't see this being a very popular mech, despite any ability to spam SSRMs.

Sounds like the Com-2D... but at least that has ECM and one energy hardpoint to use...

As a light pilot, I can say without the shadow of a doubt, that I won't be buying this mech. What a waste....a Jenner without jump jets? Seriously? What was PGI thinking?

I still wonder why PGI advertises their Hero Mechs with the weapons they carry in the promotional videos. We don't have a stock mode and everyone will change the load out directly after buying the mech anyhow so stock load outs are (sadly) useless. They should just list the hard points instead.

They should have made up some lore fluff for it.

Hehe. Yea I was but that's a good thing. I can wait a little longer to buy one now and try to finish mastering my Phoenix and soon Sabre mechs.

Yep, we've laughed about that forever. I don't know if it's PGI, NGNG, or both.
