I, uh, had some spare tonnage

round kite
#

Why tf didnt you just sponson them?

#

Also.... HARDENED ARMOR

rigid jolt
#

Could have just made it lighter, but this is the funniest way to handle leftover tonnage on a IIC design

velvet storm
#

Extra tonnage could be used for a clan tcomp

round kite
#

shudder thats MEAN

round kite
#

Says the one who gave it all the baby guns in the world and enough ammo to shoot for DAYS

mild zealot
#

Look, this thing will delete building and infantry formations

round kite
#

Less so than the catapult lol

velvet storm
#

Looks like simply switching directly to clan gauss gives you enough tonnage for a clan tcomp and still have 1.5t left over

#

Err 0.5t if you give it 48 shots of gauss total

#

Enough for a light active probe

#

Or an ERSL in the front

round kite
#

Flamer?

velvet storm
#

Or that

mild zealot
#

Rear-facing Flamer, got it

round kite
#

Don't forget to paint it red

#

17M is a lot, and I can't help but think you could have managed with a fuel cell

round kite
#

Its supposed to be clan "upgrade" to the alacorn.

IS model needs an XL iirc

forest summit
#

I can get it under 5M with a fuel cell

#

And don't you dare try to argue that the Clans would never cut corners on a Combat Vehicle

#

Not that I consider this a major downgrade

#

To my mind, if you aren't using the free heat sinks, you shouldn't pay for them

round kite
#

Oh in general I agree.

My only exception is when I need the weight

forest summit
#

If you need an XL engine, you find an excuse to use the free heat sinks. If you're me, anyway

#

Stealth armor, for instance

#

There's even precedent, like the Skulker C

round kite
#

Stealth alacorn would be fun.

forest summit
#

The Skulker C seems kinda terrible, admittedly

#

Using a Watchdog CEWS with stealth armor is a sin
