What is your favorite Orion customized version? I use an Orion K that replaces the medium lasers and autocannon with a pair of Snub PPCs++ and a TAG while leaving the missile weapons the same.

With the K, I usually had with either the default config or stripped all its weapons and gave it an AC20 with two tonnes of ammo and jump jets (can't recall how I got the armour on it).
For the V, I usually took out the LRM15 and replaced the SRM4 on the arms with the 6 (again, can't recall how I meddled with the armour).
Though, since HM got available, the Orion is only good for selling or rp'ing.

Hey, it was good enough for Kerensky, it's good enough for me.

The V I am currently fielding (yeah, started playing again a few weeks ago) is armed with an UAC/20++ (-3 tons, +20 damage) w. 3 tons of ammo and a single medium laser.
Full jump-capability, a Ballistic TTS+++ and near full armor round out the package. Since I don't have a MAD yet, it's my main head-capper for the time being.
It _does_ run a bit hot, so shooting the AC every turn will get you into the red, but then again, punching an opponent every few turns (I also found a +60 damage arm-mod, that I put into it), serves as both, an opportunity to cool down and a way to let the recoil penalty wear off.
