So I just acquired a Rifleman 3N. My main question is, is the Rifleman an XL Engine friendly mech? My current build for it, is using two Ultra AC 5, six ER Medium Lasers, Endo Steel Internal Structure, and Double Heat Sinks. If I went with an XL Engine, I would get enough weight for another DHS, and either a LAMS, or the Advanced Sensors / TC.

The Rifleman hit boxes aren't terrible for side torsos if you kit it out to fire and twist. But if you plan on staring at your targets and put sustained fire down on them (keeping you from twisting incoming damage), then an XL will make you rather vulnerable.

Personally my go-to build for this one is 2xUAC10, Endo, Ferro, DHS, LFE 250, rest tonnage in ammo (I guess you could trade off a ton for a TC if you prefer)
