Well, the Warhawk would be better for LRM+ERPPC because of more tonnage and it's quirked exactly for those two weapon systems (though only a teeny weeny LRM CD quirk):

WHK-B

Break those ECM bubble on Hellbringers and Atlai with your ERPPC. The Artemis is kind of needed in this case because you need to quickly get a lock after breaking the ECM. Yes, the 7 tons LRM ammo is on the low-ish side.

Well, I actually had tried building it based on the picture but couldn't get satisfied with one because it would be hot. Then I remembered about the Warhawk and thought that it would be more suitable while keeping the LRMs and the dual ERPPCs.

This is how I did it.

Yeah, you can use LRMs, but honestly 2 CERPPCs on a Timber Wolf feels like enough of a handicap. Even with SRMs, MGs and MPLs for short range brawling, I feel a bit vulnerable at close range with this one. It's pretty fun though. The S-variant with 5 jump jets gets some ok altitude for PPC poptarting.

I don't know about that, I do rather well with dual PPC+ASRM16 on my Timby..... She's a nice consistent killer 3-5 KMDD a match with 400-550 damage on average, depending on number of kills.

i was running something similar on my TBR-P(I) close range was where i did most of my killing was legit though ^^ was a greate assassin sneak up behind the lines and take out 2-3 befor they knew what was happening
