|Strengths=The Masakari has the ability to carry heavy energy weapons such as the [[ERPPC]], or any combination of "3 Slot" weapons due to its exceptionally well proportioned slots. It can carry up to 11 slots worth of [[LRM]]'s, and will often be seen in this configuration, providing support for forward units. It also makes a valuable artillery support mech, capable of carrying 2 [[Long Tom]] Cannons, along with the heat sinks required by these extremely hot running weapons. It supports the use of both [[BAP]] and [[Enhanced Optics]], making it a valuable sniper or missile support unit.<ref>[http://trm.mektek.net/index_mechs.htm MechWarrior4 - Technical Reference Manual]</ref> | |Strengths=The Masakari has the ability to carry heavy energy weapons such as the [[ERPPC]], or any combination of "3 Slot" weapons due to its exceptionally well proportioned slots.

|Weaknesses=Most performance factors are well below other mechs in or near its weight class with the exception of Reverse Speed. Its general lack of agility makes it vulnerable to smaller units which, if allowed to approach closely, will run circles around the sluggish beast. However, as a second line mech with the ability to advance, fire and withdraw quickly, it is a powerful force that must be respected. Its top speed is impressive, but at 28 total tons of engine upgrades, it will most often be seen in much slower configurations that maximize firepower.<ref>[http://trm.mektek.net/index_mechs.htm MechWarrior4 - Technical Reference Manual]</ref> | |Weaknesses=Most performance factors are well below other mechs in or near its weight class with the exception of Reverse Speed.
