Yup. I haven't found a mech yet that I couldn't make viable.

Trebuchet. Kintaro.

LRM mechs obsoleted by the Hunchback 4J

While one could argue that they do well in trebuchets and kintaros, their performance is going to be worse than if they just took the superior mech.

To be fair, both of those LRM mechs were obsoleted long before the Hunchie 4J got megaquirked.

All 3 were actually obsoleted a while ago, now only 2/3 are...

Even though the treb is nearly the size of an atlas, it was pretty good in the old 8 mans. It wasn't quite a catapult but it was much more mobile. It and the centurion's scale need to be reevaluated.

LRM support is a good job for a medium. It's better to have an LRM medium on your team than an LRM assault.

But back on the bushwacker, if it were to get AC10 quirks like the Cent-D has LBX10 quirks I'd be a happy camper.

ECM Griffin next week looks prime to remove many valid medium LRM boat options off the field... and get the perfect protection against its own weapon.
