Messed around in mechlab and testing grounds.
Jenners handle like butter - even unbasic'd.
AC is gonna sit on the shelf a while.

Dude. Duuuuude. Not cool. JR7-IIC SRM6x6

That's pretty much a destroyed light every time you find one. And probably a cored DWF or a half dead TBR.

Being a main Locust pilot, I have to say tripling my armament, armor, and gaining jump jets doesn't hurt (me.) I tried a game in the stock variant and had some real good time. The only problem I had was the lack of ammunition (which will be easily fixed with some tinkering).

I'm really interested in trying this out: Slurm Hose.

Set those suckers to chain fire and let em rip.

So I tried my hands at 5x6SRM. I'm not even sure how you can manage your ammunition with 6SRMs...I barely have enough for a game with 5 of 'em.

With that said, the damage is really over the top. Who the hell thought this thing could even be remotely close to being balanced? If a Light turn his back on me, it's pretty much a guaranteed kill. If he faces me and we're close, it's also a guaranteed kill. If I manage to creep up into anything other than a stock Assault (which comes with a ton of armor on the back), it is pretty much dead.

So I tried it last night and wasn't all that wild about it. They didn't chain fire as fast I had hoped they would, and the Alpha is a little on the weak side, although it is concentrated and you can mount a 315 XL with it if you drop the heatsinks and a ton of ammo.

All in all I think it's better just running with a smaller engine and SRM4 or SRM6.

I had a blast last night with other people's new Jenner IIC's.... There are at least 3 lights now in most the matches I play.
You will fear MY MISSILES!

No I won't. I'll tell my team where you are and let them kill you. Splat Dogs are not very effective against something the size of a heavy or assault and are about equal to a Medium. The only thing you threaten are lights and I can make sure on most maps that you don't hit me, but I can make sure to light you up for my team.

[Vadafallon]

I don't use streaks, i use srm4 and 2 and i take down many a slow lumbering heavy or assault with this build.

I play this build like I would an LRM build against assaults. My job isn't to kill them or take them one on one, but to weaken them. I have two shotted mechs as big as a centurion, 72 alpha is 72 alpha. It's more viable than you might think. I took out 4 lights and a medium yesterday. They were trying to harass the assaults. I look forward to seeing you on the battlefield!

[Not A Real RAbbi]

I'm not really THRILLED with this mech, but it DOES have huge potential for folks who like the missile lights.

I've been a little more impressed with the other JR7-II-C variants. A few cSPLs or cERSLs, and some big missiles in the middle? Werks fer me!

I'm thinking this will be a common sight:

JR7-IIC

Light-hunter.

Not enough endurance to last the whole match. 200 missiles isn't exactly a lot...

[Eboli]

I find this build has a lot of flexibility.

Speed is not as high but it has JJs so play to the mech's abilities.
