Newbie Friendly SIL JR7-IIC-A

When it comes to lights speed is life. Especially if you're just starting out. This bad boy won't out knife fight a 6ERSL cheato but... it can outrun it and jump pretty darn well. Plus it doesn't really run that hot, it has enough range to do its work and... it's basically a slightly faster better jumping more durable version of the JR7-F champion allowing prospective customers to compare the IS and Clan tech jenners with similar mechs.

Yes I could build one with no JJ and upgrade to 6SPL but that's not as new player friendly and less fun. Also it's basically the stock mech at that point...

Yes I could run a smaller engine but... SIL.

yes I could build a 6srm6 Jenner IIC but the ammo management and positioning concerns are bit too complex for a brand new seal.

Yes I could run one with 6ERML or 5CMPL or any of a dozen other loltastic builds. But they run too hot for the newbie to deal with.
