You Voted! - BattleMech Roles: Skirmishers | BattleTech Audio Logs: 052

Skirmishers are considered to be suitably adapted to a fluid combat environment, due in part to their weaponry, armor and speed, able to directly engage the enemy well enough to inflict appreciable damage. Their flexibility allows a battlefield commander considerable leeway when compensating for both tactical situations and local topography. They are also assigned deep recon missions, where probability of return is too low to be acceptable for lighter units. The skirmisher role can be fulfilled by ProtoMechs, medium-sized tanks, hovercraft, and VTOLs, though BattleMechs are the preferable platforms.

I love skirmisher mechs with a burning passion, too bad that I always end up getting them blown up (

I'm with you on that one... Very tricky to use.

I want to love the skirmisher, but maaaaaaan, I'm bad with them. My positioning skills just aren't up to snuff yet there.
