Apologies for the deliberately misleading title.

but with the impending launch of the Marauder, we are actually also getting the PENETRATOR

The Bounty Hunter can be easily configured into the PTR4D with 2 Large and 5 medium lasers (1 less ML).

The MARAUDER 5D can fulfil the PTR 4F variant with twin LRM 10 racks

and the 5M or BH can fulfil the PTR 6M variant

similar engine size, chicken walker profile, and with JJ

what this also means is that we dont need a separate Penetrator but should instead go for some other advance mech like bandersnatch or something

more reasons to get your pack NOW.

Chassis/variant redundancy isn't a new concept around here...

The actual Penetrator would have higher mounted weapons & ecm on top of the JJ. Unless it had horrendous hitboxes, it'd be a very strong mech, without quirks.

The Bandersnatch whilst having plenty of weapons, ecm, etc. Does suffer from low hanging arms.

Russ has talked about moving up the timeline. Maybe we could get this gorgeous monster. http://www.sarna.net/wiki/Dragon_Fire
