This design mounts a large and micro laser in each arm, and 15-rack LRTs on each shoulder. Upsilon is meant for underwater fighting and was likely created towards the end of the Jihad. But the best part of this version is the use of jump jets, all torso mounted. A machine gun is mounted in each side torso, fed by a half ton of ammo, and two 6-pack SRM launchers are placed on each shoulder, with one ton of ammo dedicated for each, though stored in the arms. The left arm mounts a large pulse, while the right mounts two medium pulses. Smoky was created during Operation: Revival to deal with Inner Sphere tactics. Two tons of ammo are dedicated for each launcher, and three heat sinks were added, one in the left arm, two in the right. Shoulder-mounted 20-pack LRMs tied into Artemis IV, and a centerline small make up the difference in weight. Hyperion was the obligatory heavy laser model, mounting a heavy large in each arm. Three heat sinks were added, one in the left arm, two in the right.įoxtrot is a product of the Jade Falcons and modifies the Prime by removing the machine guns and downgrading the pulse for another medium, to install three anti-personnel Gauss rifles and a ton of ammo. Arm-mounted large lasers compliment the range of the launchers, and a light TAG helps when zellbrigen is broken and your artillery is chomping at the bit. A centerline small laser finishes up the compliment.Įpsilon makes use of ATM-9 launchers, each with three tons of ammo dedicated to them, allowing for the use of all types. Three tons of ammo are dedicated to the SRMs. Each arm mounts a PPC, while each shoulder mounts two 6-pack Streak SRM launchers, one pointed forward, the other to the rear. Each weapon has a ton of ammo allocated for it.ĭelta is a dedicated dueling machine. A 15-rack LRM sits on each shoulder, with a centerline medium, and a left torso mounted anti-missile system rounding out the weapons load. One ton of ammo is allocated to each weapon.Ĭharlie mounts two large lasers in its left arm, and a Class-5 Ultra autocannon in its right. A left torso mounted 10-rack LRM and right torso mounted 4-pack SRM are tied into Artemis IV fire control systems. ![]() One ton of ammo feeds the machine guns, while each LRM rack has a single ton allocated to its needs, which suited the Clan dueling ethos.Īlpha mounts a PPC in each arm along with heat sinks (two in the left, three in the right), three medium pulse lasers in the left torso, a 6-pack Streak SRM in the right torso with one ton of ammo, and a small laser in the center torso.īeta mounts a massive Gauss Rifle in the right arm, and a large and medium pulse in the left. A medium pulse laser and two machine guns round out the firepower. ![]() On each shoulder (side torso) a massive 20-rack LRM sits. Each arm mounts a large and medium laser, as well as an additional heat sink. The Prime configuration is one of the most famous (and feared) in the game. Pod space is twenty-seven and a half tons, allowing for a large selection of configurations. Fifteen double heat sinks are fixed on the chassis, which also happen to be the number the engine can hide. A 375-rated extralight engine gives the design a maximum ground speed equivalent to that of a MASCing Woodsman. Rear armor can take a medium laser hit, with the center able to take an Inner Sphere large pulse. All front locations (save the head) can withstand a Class-20 shot, while the legs can withstand two heavy large laser hits, and the center torso can take six heavy smalls. ![]() Weighing in at 75 tons, the base chassis of the design starts with an endo-steel frame and 12 tons of ferro-fibrous armor, one point less than maximum. Not that there is much to fear from a mad kitty (unless it lives with Herb).Įntering service in 2945, the Timber Wolf was one of (at least) three replacement designs for the venerable Woodsman OmniMech. Which is why the ComStar technicians had to designate it a Mad Cat. ”Marauder.” “Catapult.” “Marauder!” “Catapult!” So bright in fact that it caused the first Inner Sphere battle computer to sight it to develop multiple personality disorder. There are others who say the design shines like the Lighthouse of Alexandria. I’m a little more center on the design, but my main quibble is the lack of jump jets on most configurations. If you were to ask one of my friends, the most overrated piece of junk in history, it and anything like it to be shot on sight. And like many icons, when looked closely at, shown to be a bit less than its image. ![]() Said to have founded the Wolf Occupation Zone nearly on its own.
