Maho nodded to Janos, before raising a hand.<br/><br/><strong>"I understand that, but both of our recent battles have taken place in close quarters. If I hadn't had the MASC, my dear <em>Sling</em> would have had some quite serious damage by now . . . or maybe worse. I'm not adverse to swapping out one of the LRM's for something a little more close-up, but there's something to be said for having a 'mech that's likely the fastest on any battlefield it steps onto. That's a useful skill, when you need to outrun defense emplacements, among other things."</strong><br/><br/>Maho liked her masc, apparently.
