Renamed it to Gorgon

I renamed it that also[:D] but then changed it back since nobody mentioned anything about the name comments I'd made when I did the 1st draft of the extended database. Now that someone else brought it up... it's the Gorgon.

As far as the changes, I like the SRM8s but just wondering the reason(s) behind the weapon swap between the TB and the BRG? If everything works on this titan (I haven't playtested it) then the TB should work with the theory of 'start a big hole and irritate the wound with missles' or 'sandpaper(weakly) and remove a body part'. In the extended data base I think I'm looking at 5 TB-wielding titans and 5 BRG-wielding titans. Should there be more BRG-titans? Is the smaller database BRG-titan short?, Too many titans already using similiar tactics?.. just wondering

Needed another BRG, and was thinking of the head hit bonus, and the name. I'll probably swap it back, TBs are more useful in assaults anyway.

I do need another LRM assault though. Maybe a mixed GM/UGM.

:-/ I have a heavy named Gorgon (twin emp's and some meson guns)...
I'll try to think of a cool, non-Tolkienish name for this one. You know, designer fiat and all.
This titan never really got "finished" to my satisfaction in the first place.

Sorry about all the name whacking. I know it's sorta stupid, but it bugs me from a 'game reality' point-of-view for titan names to be called something that probably wouldn't be in the somewhat general lexicon or named something that the a company wouldn't name a product... then agian, maybe Tolkien/D&D/MtG are the 'new' mythologies[:D]
Lord knows there are plenty of giant types and colored dragons around.[;)]

If you have any improvements or suggested changes you've come up with on the Gorgowhatever plz let us know.
