This is also a Mech that serves function over form. There are no graceful lines here, just a block of armor and guns that strides towards the enemy like a plodding doom.
In MechCommander, however, the lack of a Targetting computer allows for the installation of additional long range weapons. Ideally, this Mech will stay at the edge of battle, where the power of the LRMs, ER PPCs, and LPLs will be telling. The -A sacrifices little to bring this sort of weaponry into play, and like all Clan Mechs, should be treated as a chassis 10-15t more powerful than the equivalent mass Inner Sphere Mech.
