Could this be one of the most exciting things which was given to the IS so far?

Could it put the hammer back in Warhammer (it's already pretty hammer-y tough)?

Post your 'Mech builds with this piece of new IS tech!

Only if people put em in the arms... stumpy trex arms ain't a Warhammer. And I don't see that becoming a trend any time soon.

ATM this is what I am experimenting with..... WHM-6R

Going to go out on a limb that it won't be making the list at MetaMechs any time soon.... but at least it plays and feels like an actual Lore Warhammer.

I tried building it the "right" way but I couldn't find any way to put on the JJs......

I'm considering the triumphant return of PPCs (or in this case Heavy PPCs) to the Black Widow. 2HPPC, 4HMG and the biggest LFE I can fit. Doable?

Probably not the best build but yea

Experimenting with targeting computer

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...c0bfe08c69d9d48

Fairly good results last night given the quirks on the 8Q.

My Take on your targeting computer AWS-8Q. Basically moved some armor and the heavy PPC from the left to the right to make it Asymmetrical.

http://mwo.smurfy-ne...a4ca707859416ab

The reason I want the big targeting computer actually is the plus 15% critical hit chance. If you manage to smack an unarmored section with a HPPC you now have a 57% (1st 34% + 2nd 19% + 3rd 4%) chance to deal at least 15 damage to components. I can see parts flying.

Critical damage break down:

1st critical likelihood 34% for 15 damage to components.
2nd critical likelihood 19% for 30 damage to components.
3rd critical likelihood 4% for 45 damage to components.

BTW if you want to be able to hop, the HGN-733C can do it too (plus the ability to aim the AC/20 with greater flexibility): HGN-733C

I'd rather go for this...

Sorry, I only take the ppcs off the arms when I don't want to have any fun. Which is never

Funny, that's very similar to the build I'm toying with, I posted it on page two...

Got to run it like I would in TT, makes for a hell of mean beast... if hot.

[Zieten]

Yeah, they work great on the SHD-2K - was going to post basicly the same build ( i added a RL20 and used only a 280XL)

Built a VND-1R PPC hopper. Better on the 1AA, but don't have one.

If needed I'll readjust as game play requires... also it depends on how much you rely on the CQB weapons.

That single JJ is pointless.

If you are going to do this on the 1AA, which really you should given the importance of that 20% heat gen quirk, it should look more like this. That said, this build may be the better option.
