Crossbow

[Thorgrim]

The LRMs don't really fit the name of the thing, so I decided to try and make a pure SRM machine, since there's none in the mediums. Swapped the LRMs for SRMs, and the ML for a shield 1. Increased the HR to a 6. No testing yet. May be a bit hot.

UGH! You've brought up a good point. I added the Hydra to help out with the SRM situation, but... there are no 'real' dedicated UGM/NM titans in mediums...(althought the Manticore is a very weak LRM titan, but the 2 LRM9 racks just don't cut it for that role)

Proposal:

Crossbow -> dedicated SRM
Longbow -> dedicated LRM (also fits the name better)
Fire Drake -> dedicated NM (also fits the name better)
Manticore -> mixed SRM/LRM

That would still leave the Hydra and Dragonscale with SRMs, the Baelrog and Flamtounge with NMs, and the Medusa with LRMs.

Not that it really matters but why does mine cost $2 more then yours? You know someone in the business? You have a slightly better business skill? Did you find a $2 bill stuck in the ECM electronics?[&:]

Agreed.
The Longbow didn't bother me so much, fire arrows and all, but it's the best candidate for a pure LRM support.
The Fire Drake was next on my list to change.
The Manticore was next on my list to scrap. [:)]

I'll post another mixed one I designed a few days ago, still evaluating its usefulness.

[Sleeping_Dragon]

I'm working on the Fire Drake and Longbow now[:)]

Heh, it's something that happens when one cleans the database with the cleaning application (tmerge). Rounding in side torso armor cost, as much as I could figure couple years ago.
