Ummm...no?

That is an "about 2 seconds to shutdown" special, right there.

Now, 3 LPL and quad AC5 might be possible.

53 tons for guns, pre ammo and heatsinks

I have a feeling we'll be running into a lot of King Crabs, face down, "radiating the heat of a thousand suns" during the first week or so...

UAC/5's for that extra oomph if you need to double tap. Otherwise, just use em like AC/5's.

What's ironic is that a mech that is clearly being designed as meta power creep to the max (pre-quirked, 10 hardpoints, 120 degree torso twist) has enough loadout variety to create more derp builds than most of the other mechs in the game.

Am pondering 2 LB-X, 4x MPL and 4x SSRMs for an equally bad anti-Light build, but I think I can already do that on my AS7-S. Lol. In fact, let me do that now, so I can troll later......

Yup. Might be possible with an XL300 and Endo-Steel internals.

Mind, possible != optimal or even good.

Well... it's the KING CRAB.

I think it's going to be a beast, but also quite vulnerable. It's a huge target from the sides, rear and top. It's also easy to overgun, so a lot of people will be riding past the red line too much. Expect shutdown crabs a lot.

[Alek Ituin]

Assuming you go from stock to XL300 w/ Endo, you should end up with 67.5 tons free. Or something like that. (+9.5 tons from XL engine, +5 tons from Endo)

The KGC is quite literally an IS answer to the Dire Whale. (Despite the KGC being SLDF-era, and quite possibly the inspiration for the DWF in the first place)

What kind of engine would that be using? Even with a STD350, you'd have quite a bit of spare tonnage left over.
