It won't be meta due to weight and how its hardpoints are split, buylt it'll be okay. The arms will be higher up than expected since the elbow is almost at the same level relative to the cockpit as the Warhammer's torso mounts.

Meh.
An IS mech reliant on ballistic AND missile ammo, under 70 tons?
Meh!
Should have been a 75 tonner TBH.
Another IS mech that will need an XL in most builds capable of decent mid range firepower?
I'd rather not.
It's really a mech you buy for the looks and he concept behind it, in this case being a refitted industrial mech.

Who needs some fancy Omni Mech or Kodiak when you have an Industrial Mech retrofitted for combat. That's like, the most raddest thing ever. (Well, except for retrofitted agriculture mechs)

I am personally already satisfied with the Jager and the Warhammer.

I'd say it look like an overgrown shadow hawk in terms of the ballastics. The hardpoints are in a better spot, but you won't be able to boat as many. D:

The only viable variant is behind the reinforcements paywall and for that amount you could already have a Scorch or Spirit Bear!

The RGH-1A, -1C, and 2A all have ballistic right torsos, but none have ballistics in both side torsos.

It tends to have the same problems as the Bushwacker, just with a little bit more tonnage. Biggest issues are the type of hardpoints and locations on each variant. By "location" I don't mean mounting height (which is actually good for this mech), but rather the useless arm ballistics and nearly useless head lasers.
The only variants that stand out are the Reaver and 3A, which PGI deliberately put behind the most expensive packages. Even then, though, they both are more or less just bigger Shadow Hawk 2K's with an extra shoulder beam.

Well, if it's any consolation, the pictures make it look like the arm cannons will be about the same height as the Warhammer's torso guns. Not bad, just can't strip the arms for more tonnage.
