No need to worry about that when you can hide under the roof in Kagoshima, shut your Fafnir down, and just wait for some poor sucker to come running in looking for the easy capture.

Speed is for suckorz, its all about firepower and armor.

The base isn't going to run away from you, so who cares?  ;D
Never arm once what you could arm twice.

Atlas move's at a snails pace, but it can take some serious punishment especially if you rotate your armor around like a Tank. I'm guessing Fafnir would be the same, but would be helpless against BA and if there's not an APC in reach.

I wouldn't say helpless. I plan on having Flamers (My Anti-BA weapon of choice) in the two front slots on a couple of the configs I'm putting together.

Just be sure to make a Quad Gauss config while you are at it.  ;)

No, it's just my mech, so I get first dibs on configs. =D
Besides, my configs are better than his.

Just be thankful you can move and shoot the h gauss. Technically you have to brace the mech before you can even fire the main guns and only one at a time. During both usually ends up with broken actuators.

I just like to give the people who were involved in the creation of a mech some choice in the variants that actually go in the game (though they still need to conform to our rule-set).  And as for my configs, you'll all see how nasty they can be soon enough.  8)

That is what I am interested in seeing. The Fafnir is basically built around its twin H-gauss which takes up a lot of tonnage and two large hard point.
