Roles and Gameplay Hints

Prime

An excellent scout tank available with starting C-bills its dual ER-Medium Lasers and the CUAC-5 can deal respectable pinpoint damage to light 'mechs. However the rate of fire is sub-par, and the autocannon can jam easily with repeat firing. The Prime is better suited to cutting off weaker components such as arms or legs, or already damaged torso pieces. 1v1 engagements should be avoided, as at best it will only be an even fight. Rather, use your speed to capture undefended bases, and engage targets alongside your comrades making sure to use them to protect your very light armour. A free ton for an extra magazine of UAC5 ammo allows for greater freedom with the trigger, though can be careful to avoid a jam.

Variant A

With a 900m range and hard hitting power of its clan ERPPC aided by EOptics, the A variant's primary roll is sniping. Its twin clan small pulse lasers and dual flamers serve as close-in backup weaponry while the ERPPC recharges. Though, it's best to keep your enemies at long range though as this variant can't take much punishment going toe to toe with another brawly light asset. If caught at close range against an opponent with laser weaponry, use the flamers as your primary weapon to overheat them. Battlearmors are also easy picking for the flamers.

Variant B

A pure brawler, this Mithras can dish out some serious damage in an alpha-strike. Set to chain fire, its fast reloading twin ATM3#High_Explosive deliver screen shake every 2 1/2 seconds while the trio heavy lasers bore deep into enemy armor with precision. Keep your aim steady to rip enemy limbs off in short order. Always use cover to close the distance to surprise your prey as the Mithras doesn't have the raw speed to keep up with the faster light mechs. Keep in mind that its armor is thin, rotate damaged sides away from your enemy to survive.
