I am not here to defend my angreh kitteh again, but I do have a question for all of you nay sayers.....
I keep seeing comparisons to firestarters and spiders, but those are both heavier mechs, how about this, someone with the mist lynx buys all the commandos (25 tons is 25 tons)
I would do this, but I am biased towards commandos as well, currently I have 2 in my mechbays and neither holds a candle to my mist lynx, perhaps all of you guys complaining about the mist lynx should understand that it is a far better ecm carrier than the commando is. and that is the mech it should be directly compared to.
6 tons available from stock
COM-1B
5 tons
COM-1D
8 tons
COM-2D
9 tons
COM-3A
5 tons
DEATH'S KNELL
then you have the mist lynx
7.5 tons
MIST LYNX MLX-PRIME
so in the end, it has about the same amount of space available for equipment, but can jump. most of the commandos weps are arm mounted, and I digress, there is a missile launcher slot in the belly of some of the commandos. then to compare equal speed mechs, the Death's Knell comes with the same size engine stock... TDK arm only weps... lacks jump...
Before all of you claim my data is incorrect or whatever, it is all there in digitized links. Before any of you continue the mist lynx is useless, remember: The TDK has a max firepower based on space and weight limitations of 24, my personal mist lynx has a firepower of 37, and even after she runs out of ammo for the srms, I still have 21 firepower. oh, and I jump... did I mention, jump?
So as you can see if you actually compare the mech to its direct competition, it far outweighs its IS counterparts... I am truly sorry for all of you who haven't figured that out yet
