Locust LCT-1E

Overview
The first attempt at creating an energy-based Locust, the LCT-1E comes with two Medium Lasers and two Small Lasers. It can mount as many as six energy weapons. Unfortunately, this variant drops the torso hardpoint.

Strengths

 * Fast with a small profile, the LCT-1E can carry armament comparable to heavier light mechs while being able to climb slopes that other mechs cannot.
 * The most hardpoints of any Locust

Weaknesses

 * Light chassis weight results in very light armor
 * The LCT-1E is hampered by a 10-15 degree smaller torso twist than other variants.
 * The only Locust without a torso hardpoint
