Since my early days of piloting my lovely Centurion CN9-D, I've always been drawn to the allure of the perfect zombie mech. That is to say, a mech which houses most or all of its firepower and equipment in its center, right or left torsos. For a long while, my CN9-D would do swimmingly with a larger engine, and some SRM6+A combined with twin medium lasers, or an ER large depending on the role i chose to play for my team. Running up to 133 (with an xl375) this mech was as effective as a light, but with the armor of a medium. After the relatively large influx of mediums (wolverine, shadyhawk. griffin) I wondered if there was indeed a more perfect chassis than the centurion for the perfect zombie mech. (usually an srm boat) After mastering the griffins, I turned to my loyal GRF-3M. I had recently bought an xl355 for my Jester and threw it in the Griffin. 3srm6, 1 mls and 4 JJ's all in the right at left torsos (ammo in the feet) With over 350 armor, this mech can take a beating and use its arms as disposable shields. With the three SRM 6's tearing away at enemy armor, i easily rack up more than 700 damage per round (sometimes more because i replace the heatsink for another ton of ammo in the ct)

Take a look and try it out. I prefer the Griffin to all mechs in the role of the zombie mech. It has simply THE BEST cockpit view and viewing angles out of any mech in the game (IMO) and relatively good torso twist speed (with a unique twist motor noise as well) Decent zombie speed at 115 tweaked and room for more than 3 JJ's, giving it supreme mobility out of all the rest of the medium zombie builds.
What do YOU think is the perfect zombie weight class? chassis? build? Base this on the ability to survive and deal the most damage the quickest with no arms and possibly no side torsos (standard engines are welcome too)
Here is my best centy zombie build for reference (the old king)
