I'd vote the SATYROS as an underrated and under used weapon, the missiles travel fast, do a fair amount of damage and hit fairly often at the right range and at the right launch.
I'm also experimenting on the dual back mount, straight fire missile launchers (Jack-O's dual backmount, the name escapes me at the moment + GAR/2 extensions) and found out they might have potential use as a hard hitting 'surprise' weapon with relations. There's a trick to using them properly, hard to explain but my conclusion is that this missile system in LR is skill based, meaning that they're not really designed to be spam weapons requiring right timing and range to use properly. My staple heavy is armed with that dual backmount weapon now after vs testing last saturday found that dual verts are ineffective against mobile opponents on open arenas (just walk foward, and your safe!).
There's a good discussion in RH on different missile systems where I recommend some reading. I also want your opinions on ground torps in LR against human VS (sadly I wasn't able to test a design last meeting).
Agreed with the HOLLOW, I'd use the gun on the same level as the 98RL or SHADE if its weight droped to 800-900 WPs and given 110 ammo (a more balanced version of its AA counterpart)
