I dunno... I fear LRM Carriers more than SRM Carriers these days. With SRM Carriers' short range you can actually see (and destroy) them before they are able to bring any of those 60 SRMs to bear.

Contrast that to an unseen enemy firing LRMs: As the firing sound goes on and on and on and "OMG will it ever stop?", you know your day is about to get worse.

I sometimes go "oh no that's an LRM carrier" and then it turns out to be an Archer 2R or Catapult C4.

I'm... not sure which one is worse. Except for that one time the reinforcement OpFor happened to be all LRMs, all indirect, and all annoying.

First time I ran into a full reinforcement lance of LCT-1M's, I was sure I was facing Griffons or something similar. It was a mixture of annoyance and relief when I realized it was "just" locusts.

I felt something similar the first time I ran into the LRM15 Javelins. I couldn't figure out what the heck they were. All I knew was they were a pain in the Gyro.
