FM-1A is too slow to use hatchet, over armored and has too few heat sinks to use it's weapons. Two hatchets are useless too and LRMs are almost useless in close range battle, so the mech needs a lot of changes to be usable anywhere else than on parades where it can slowly walk around the tribune with two shiny hatchets and big muzzles. |

This thing screams for DHS. It runs too hot and all those pretty ER weapons will make you pretty useless if you don't have any DHS to handle em.
2 Hatchets are also a waste of tonnage, maybe use one of em to improve the engine at least or get more heatsinks. |

If this mech mounts adequte ranged weaponry. I'm a Namby Pamby Ice Hellion. With girlish boots to boot.
Even with double heat sinks you could only fire the ER Large and LRM rack. THe ER PPC needs to be traded for a bigger engine or in close weaponry. |

Once again this is a lvl1 design sporting some lvl2 gadget that robs it of its last shred of credibility.
It has two hatchets but can only use one. It has three large ranged weapons that create a total of 32 heat, with only 10 heat sinks to dissipate them.
Even if this was a lvl one design (ie the energy weapons were standard) this would still cause 23 heat, meaning that if this were to work even fundamentally, it would have to replace a hatchet with heat sinks. And it could still not fire that large laser....
It seems to me that this 'mech was designed under different premises. A) on the premise that you play without heat (as in the starter rules); B) that two hatchets could be used simultaneously; C) that hatchets use the punch table (hence the weight). Under those circumstances it would rock! Unfortunately (well, not really), that is not the case... |

Utterly worthless. Slow, poor heat sink capability.
Sure it has long ranged weapons, but it doesn't have the heat to use them.
Sure it has a hatchet, but its NEVER going to get to use it.
The fluff doesn't explain how it got to be this bad either. |
