An Assaultmech that desrves its name. The LB20-X can deliver a hard punch or a sandblast attack while the medium lasers give nice support. The ability to launch 12 streak missiles make it deadly against damaged opponents or vehicles especially if combined with a cluster attack, but the streak's shots have to be mothered. The LRM of the original variant was dropped in favor of a large ER laser. As this is its only long range weapon this Highlander is best used in terrains like cities or woods. Full armor, CASE and the light engine make it able to survive its close range attack.

This one is simple for House Steiner.
Hot drop him into a city and cut lose, the weapons work their magic in here. If given a choice, i would drop the medium pulse for 1 more Streak 6 reload and another medium laser. This brings up to 3 ER mediums and 15 reloads per streak.
The mech does crank out a bit of heat when it jumps to engages but good pilots can compensate for it. Engagment rules should be simple, fire the LB-20x and lets the Streak rip him apart.
If you got a chance, fly the 90 ton thing into the guy as well ! |

When the HGN wants to get up close and personal....
The LBX is perfect for anti infantry work, with the cluster munitions, or when loaded with standard rounds, good for anti-mech work.
The Streaks and pulse lasers back each other nicely, and can do almost as much damage as the LBX.
The ER lasers seem to be a passing nod at ranged work, enough to let the mech defend itself, but not press any kind of ranged assault.
Use this monster in close environs, cities, forests, canyons, etc. and this WILL kill something. |

I actually like this design. Great armor, jump jets and a fantastic weapons load. The only problem is its lack of true long range dire-power. The Large is good and the ER Mediums can complement it to a certain degree, but a medium 'mech that is faster with long range firepowere could give this design a bit of trouble. |
