For the most part I agree with you.

The only wrench in that is that on a big boat Artemis might be too heavy, while TAG might still fit. I have that problem on my BLR-1S (because at the moment I'm too cheap to buy it an XL), so I'm running 4 x LRM-15 with TAG. Once I feel like paying for another XL I'll have the tonnage to add Artemis, but I won't be dropping the TAG to do it.

Also, I get into a LOT of matches where there's no other TAG on my side. So at least for my Elo rating, self-TAG on an LRM boat is pretty much mandatory in order to get that bonus.

If you can't fit artemis on a big boat you'll want to lower your missile count a bit to make it fit, the benefit of artemis is worth more than those extra missiles. With quad 15s you can switch to 2 15s and 2 10s to give you enough free weight. I myself use that config on the 1S because it matches the tube count.

No really...I'm very open to discussion...link you're thread 'cause I musta missed it if you don't wanna cross. I just don't understand why you would leave yourself sucepitble to a single ECM light shut-down without BAP if you want any legitimate LRM contribution. Notice, I did not say primary contribution....just serious contribution.

The post I quoted was in response to "targeting" mechs inside of the ECM bubble....and for THAT reason, I agree it's dumb. The point still remains that BAP is a "defensive" measure against being shut-down by a light while targeting in a distance.
