Roles and Gameplay Hints
Prime
Armed with the close range punch of an AC20 the Rommel Prime is a brutal mid range fighter in the early game. The mobility and resilience of a 74km/h top speed and 9.5 tons of armor keep it in the fight against light and medium assets, though focused heavy fire will take it down before long. Its LRM-5 allows it to soften up light and medium targets as they close range before opening them up with the main gun. For back up damage and anti-infantry work, a pair of SBLs give the Rommel some security from being harassed by BA. 2 free tons also allow the Prime to be less resupply reliant for the ammo hungry AC20, which will likely require both tons as the LRM-5 should be used sparingly for backup. A LAMS system also takes some of the bite out of enemy missile barrages against it and allies. At only 60,000 C-Bills, the Rommel is an excellent upgrade from a light-mech in the early game before all of the enemy are able to field heavier assets.

A long-range harassment unit, the Rommel G can be an infuriating enemy on open terrain with its array of accurate screenshaking weapons. A ERPPC and a trio of LRM5 allow it to sand the armor off enemies at long range, while a pair of ERMBL gives it some mid-range punch. GECM allows it to move into position and slink away from battle without being detected. However, a dearth of heatsinks means that one must pull back to cool off after a few salvos.
