Roles and Gameplay Hints

The Argus is an Inner Sphere Heavy Mech and was added with the 0.9.0 update. It ties the Rifleman as being the lightest IS heavy mech available but unlike the glass cannon Rifleman, the Argus is a tough mech fielding 11.5 tons of ferro-fibrous armor. It doesn't skimp on speed either, running at a quick 86 KPH. Its chassis has a squat profile with relatively high mounted weapons, allowing it to mostly stay in cover while unleashing its potent firepower. All variants have enhanced optics as standard equipment.
