i take it the production model as compared to the refit is basically going to be the 7A but with flamers instead of SPLs and maybe no artemis IV? I say maybe since if the lyrans get ahold of the cores comstar gave people they probably can put the artemis system in.
Fair enough. Honestly I suspect that refit package will make the Warhammer a lot more formidable and will mulch a fair few combine and clanner units in due time
Me having last played HBS Battletechs 3062 mod.....uhhh I hope they like appearing in the middle of rural new sytris. Aka the frozen hellscape planet save near the equator
Honestly any earth being isoted into BT would have the major problem of anyone actually finding them since exploration is rare post ACW. Any other variables of which earth and the like have to account for that and have to have a valid way how they're discovered
Not really worth it save maybe in the SL era. Post or pre that no one has the yards to really build that and if they did they have more important ships to build
Looking at the malice and it's variants maybe making it a omnimech or at least giving it the modular weapons quirk would be a good idea. Makes it being in high demand actually make sense
A malice that's a merger of 2 existing variants that packs a lot more useful firepower and remains at its core a IS mech with a couple bits of clantech bolted on
Use the clanner LPLs the XY variant has but 4 of them as the sole anti mech weapons. Add 8 DHS and a IS Targeting computer and then for the last 5 tons add 4 SPLs ( or 2 of them and 2 ER flammers) which type of them is up to you with the 5th ton being eaten by the Targeting computer.
Enjoy your...
