well, some I'm sure would very much like to cross that bridge, however, we don't want to feed the troll, so...

[Zakaddum]

Lol yeah, the last thing we wanna do, is to feed the troll))

Ah the DakkaMech

[Thaddeus Kusaka]

The JM6 was designed to fix some flaws of the Rifleman, most importantly the heat issues and lack of ammo, but this certainly looks like a cross between the JM6 and the RFL-3N. A couple things it keeps from the original JM6 design is the shoulders being higher than the cockpit, squared feet, and asymmetrical gun barrells - although some of the later Rifleman models lost that symmetry when they switched to PPCs and LBX autocannons - but the original JM6 had a lot more straight lines for the legs and an odd looking rounded cockpit.

MORE DAKKA!

Wished it would be a Rifleman...

Just replace the A/C2 with lazers and you've got yourself a rifleman, well sort-off.

The Jagermech is based of the design of the Rifleman, This mech was meant to correct the design faults of the Rifleman.

*glances over the Jagermech again*

How awful was the Rifleman, that the Jagermech is an improvement?

It overheated like a Nova Cat with zero heatsinks...

It is very similar. Cool cool. I like it. I very much love Fire Support Mechs and Autocannon machines.

You also have to remember that at the time of the default configuration, you might only have 16-20 armor on the chest of most heavy, maybe 30 points of armor on assault mechs. Two AC/2's (not to mention the AC/5's) could in fact strip some armor over the course of a few rounds - again, especially when combined with other mechs.

Or a Sunder, but a bit lighter.

That, plus in a lance of 'mechs you'd use the lighter AC's to crit seek once you popped open a 'mech.

And there's always the chance for a golden BB...

can't wait to see this in my target cross

[Kenyon Burguess]

This should be a good mech, looking into this one.

Looking at the red logo on the 'Mech's right leg, it could possibly be Jacob's Juggernauts. Not 100% certain though.

I stand corrected. It is Simonson's Cutthroats Thanks to Strum Wealth for pointing this out.

So, that red logo looks suspiciously like a JagerMech posing for a reminiscence of the Jägermeister logo, no?
