You can't change the type of armor or move ES/FF crits around the omnimech, so this 'Mech is not a Blood Asp, but I'll still use the original 'Mech for comparison.
Just like the BA prime the 'Mech puts a lot of tonnage to weapons that won't last due to the amount of ammo carried. You'll soon have only the lasers and 26 tons of dead weight (28 actually, because half of your medium lasers must be silent, or you are going to overheat). That's bad. I think that the 'Mech may shine in a trial, where it may crush single opponent (there is still a question whether the opponent won't do the same to you), but when battling multiple enemies you'll probably have to retreat or fall, because the other weapons are not strong enough. Look at Warhawk prime to see what does a death incarnate look like. |

Well for a Clan command variant of the Blood Asp, i expect more endurance. Once your ammo is gone, you are just a slower, bigger and heavier Ryoken.
I would kill off 2 med lasers just for another extra 2 tons of ammo. This also reduces the amount of heat you must compensate.
Actually after removing 2 er med lasers, you can even kill more heatsinks for ammo ! The extra ammo will do well against long missions against DCMS.

This 'mech reminds me of a Masakari without the targeting computer. The pulse lasers and gause rifles are well suited for long-range combat, and the medium lasers make it a dangerous opponent to close with as well.
Two criticisms hold me back from rating this as being better than an average clan assault 'mech though:
1) seriously limited Gauss rifle ammunition. Once that ammo runs out, you've got firepower no better than a Ryoken, and nowhere near the speed.
2) no electronics suite of any kind. An ECM is always a good thing for a 'mech expecting to face C3 linked Draconis Combine units to carry. The ECM would also impede the Artemis equipped LRM boats that are likely to be the Inner Sphere response to this kind of assault 'mech. |
