Title says it all...I mean why not? and the heat from firing those AC20's all at once should be 60-80% heat bar instead of shut down

[Toothless]

I should be able to do what I want whenever I want.

[Savage Wolf]

Pinpoint 80 damage alpha without shutdown? How about no.

Not enough crit space for the arms.

In fairness, I think that's 1 of the things he wanted. To have more crit space in arms for it

Thing is, GH timer is 0.5 seconds and chainfiring 4 AC/20s equally would be 1 second between shells... so 4 AC/20 is actually a viable dakka build. I expect to see this once crit-splitting becomes a thing, and then AC/20s and/or Annihilator will be nerfed because of it.

Crit-splitting

When MLX was a joke and I loved to QP with it I always wanted to mount Double Gauss + ERPPC.

Russ is heartless for breaking my dreams...

You guys shouldn't have anything to fear if you just stay 450m+ away from the annihilator...it's not like it's going to hurt you with all that super close range weaponry when you are out of range...not to mention the annihilator is super slow, so why not go ahead and give it power!

Yeah, and my Direstar should fire 11 PPCs without shutting down.

Gausszilla?

I can only manage 4 on an Anni, not 5

Which is why its Apocryphal, because it breaks the construction rules (with IS tech, with clam tech it can do it).

MCII with the same alpha at longer ranges laughs in the background.

Only clans can have such things. IS mechs must be worse otherwise the clanners will whine their mechs arent more powerfull

a Highlander should be able to survive 2 alphas from quad AC20's
145-80=65+50--70struct= 115 HP

Why?

More importantly - why not? We should be able to choose to remove actuators on all IS mechs just like we can on clan mechs.

There are a few IS mechs that could mount AC20 in the arms if only they could choose to remove the actuator

Because you can't remove actuators on clan mechs.

You can remove actuators on omnimechs.

The solution you're looking for is crit splitting, and I have no idea why PGI didn't foresee it being a consideration.

As long as construction rules allow for it, yes you should be able to.
