Simple reason I don't like the stock TBT... Not enough ammo. Need to remove a ML or two an ad ammo for the LRMs....

TBT-K7R - This variant is a factory refit performed by Kali Yama Weapons Industries based on a custom Trebuchet found in the Periphery. It removes all the standard weaponry, the engine, and the skeleton, replacing them with a Light Engine, Endo Steel skeleton, and a new weapons array. Intended for short range combat, the TBT-K7R carries a pair of ER Medium Lasers, a pair of ER Flamers, a Streak SRM-6, and a Chain Whip. What makes it most deadly however, is the BattleMech Taser in the left arm. With this weapon the Trebuchet can capture an enemy 'Mech. The Trebuchet also carries Triple Strength Myomer, allowing it to pin 'Mechs as heavy as an Atlas. Ten and a half tons of armor and a 150 meter jump range protect the 'Mech. BV (2.0) = 1,408[15]

most. retarded. loadout. ever.

that said, id rather have another skirmisher than another support mech. Its not that supports dont have their place (obviously) but medium-support mechs seem oxymoronic. why have a medium suport mech when a heavy or assault support mech can do the same job more effectively.

normally i do not support this menatlity, but in the case of support mechs, i very much do. yes, having a mobile fire-support platform in theory allows your whole force to be more mobile, but 8 seconds of sustained fire?

the redesign looks fantastic though!
And the LRMS will likely make me leery of them on the field when im in a scout/skirmisher role...

Meh, just a bigger commando, smaller catapult/stalker. I don't hate this one, don't love it either. I wonder what'll be next?

Nice art, BTW. Good work with the twin medium lasers in the arm.

The mech kind of reminds me the Megatron from the animated series...

Holy crap, a Trenchbucket! And it looks phenomenal! Stop releasing these fantastic 'Mechs, my wallet can't handle that many garage spaces. Maybe I'll use the credits from the Founder's pack to buy more garage slots...

I like how "square" the mech is. And... hey, doesn't it looks like a smaller Victor?
