| |
| - | ==Description==
| |
| - | A Classic 70 ton design that predates the formation of the Star League. This Mech is well known for its ability to carry missiles and is popular in the role of fire support.

| |
| - | == Tactical Analysis ==
| |
| - | '''Strengths'''<br>
| |
| - | The Archer rivals the [[Catapult]] and [[Bowman]] when it comes to popularity as an indirect fire support Mech. Extra tonnage can be freed up by removing armor and weapons from the arms. [[BAP]] allows the Mech to find hidden units and gain a faster missile lock while [[ECM]] protects the mech from enemy sensors while running active radar. Impressive torso twist for a support mech as well has an above average speed for a 70 ton Mech allows the Archer to easily fire on the move and flank the enemy.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | '''Weaknesses'''<br>
| |
| - | The Archer has few real weaknesses. Only the fact that it can't mount [[jump jets]] holds it back from being a perfect missile support mech. Since the Archer will almost certainly be using missile weapons as its primary armament, it is best to only expose yourself for short periods when combating one. Jump sniping and hill humping are both ideal strategies to deal with an Archer. Avoid shooting the arms as they likely devoid of any important equipment.
