I hope this mech isn't screwed by having a low engine cap. That would be bad!

The BJ-1DC has the greatest number of minimum hardpoints (a minimum of eight - two energy hardpoints in each side-torso, one energy hardpoint in each arm, and one ballistic hardpoint in each arm), but is the one variant that is stock without Jump Jets (and so likely would not be jump-capable for MWO).
Finally, the basic BJ-1 carries a ballistic hardpoint in each arm, and an energy hardpoint in each arm and each side-torso, and is jump-capable as well - which also gives it substantial overlap with the BJ-1DB.
Each of the Blackjacks start with a 180-rated engine (Standard, not XL, is stock for all), giving them a cap of 235 and a base maximum top speed (that is, without pilot efficiencies and such) of ~85 kph.
Twin AC/2s come to 12 tons (without ammo).
Twin AC/5s come to 16 tons (without ammo).
Twin UAC/5s come to 18 tons (without ammo).
I expect a fair number of (relatively) fast dual- and/or quad-PPC/ER-PPC/ERLL poptarts and hill-humpers...
Um, all your links go to Locusts...

what about the BJ-2 ? is there some reason it isn't a qualified variant??

To something *yawn* boring like on the first page which looks like the *******-child son of a Cataphract that mated with a Jaeger?
It makes me sad. PGI needs to get way edgier in their artwork.

I don't know, but the Blackjack in general looks ugly. The new makeover looks nicer.

because that abortion looks horrible, like about 95% of the "proper" battletech artwork?
