The Vampire’s main strength lies in its speed and deceptive appearance. It could blend into aerospace formations, often being mistaken for a fighter on a bombing run due to its weapons loadout and small size.
+ +The Vampire was equipped with a modest weapon array more akin to aerospace fighters. It carried two medium lasers and an SRM-6 in the nose, while each wing mounted a Large Laser and LRM-20. An additional pair of medium lasers protected the aft. This fighter-like armament allowed the Vampire to blend in with aerospace squadrons during combat missions. Despite its light weapons load, two tons of SRM reloads and three tons of LRM reloads provided ample endurance for its hit-and-run role.
+The Vampire's troop compartments were notoriously cramped, only capable of carrying three platoons of jump infantry. Because of this, infantry often preferred to travel on larger transports, only transferring to the Vampire for the final assault. The ship also featured a cargo bay with 14 tons of capacity for quick strike operations. Its ventral drop hatches enabled the rapid deployment of troops without landing, giving it a strategic edge in surprise operations.
+When approaching a target, the Vampire would perform high-speed, low-altitude passes, deploying up to three platoons of jump infantry via specialized drop hatches on its ventral surface. This tactic confused enemies, as seen during the brief "Border War" between the Federated Suns and the Capellan Confederation. The most famous example occurred at Redfield, where Liao troops mistook incoming Vampires for bombers, only to be caught off guard when infantry rained down instead of bombs.

Designed with specifications from Aleksandr Kerensky himself in 2755 in the midst of the Cameron Edicts, the Atlas was originally intended to ensure SLDF superiority over the Star League member states. Carrying the largest LRM launcher, the largest autocannon, and the largest SRM launcher possible, the Atlas can deal frightening amounts of damage in short amounts of time. Often used as a command vehicle, the Atlas mounts an advanced antenna and communications array, allowing it to engage in surface-to-space communications in real time. The massive 19-ton hide of armor that protects the Atlas makes it a difficult foe to take down. Indeed, most MechWarriors choose to fall back rather than face one head-on, as its lumbering gait means it can rarely catch up to other 'Mechs that choose to flee it. A full year of development went into crafting the famous "Death's Head" of the 'Mech to achieve the perfect ratio of functionality and fear. The head is also quite roomy and allows a small satellite dish to be mounted for surface-to-space communications. During combat the pilot can easily fold up the dish and store it within a protective portion of the head. - deployment:A Combine modification of the K model introduced in 3050, the C model carried a C3 Slave unit into combat. This was achieved by removing one of the Medium Pulse Lasers from the K model. The extra free ton was used to add another heat sink to the design. - history:Though the inexorable arming of the Great Houses continued, the Atlas proved itself to be everything General Kerensky requested. With the largest amount of armor of nearly any 'Mech, crippling firepower, and the foreboding skull-shaped "Death's Head" cockpit/head assembly, the Atlas lived up to its reputation. The mere sight of an Atlas had been known to make even a veteran MechWarrior break out in a cold sweat, and theoretically a single Atlas can take on and wipe out an entire battalion of Stingers in exchange for minor armor loss. The Atlas' first combat trials came during the Amaris Civil War, where it served an instrumental role as a powerful command vehicle. Though General Kerensky is well-known for being the one who kicked down the palace doors of the Usurper in his Orion, it was his close friend Aaron DeChavilier who, in his Atlas, weathered the storm of enemy fire and breached the protective wall surrounding the complex. After this conflict it was therefore with little surprise that the General wished for all of these 'Mechs to accompany him on Operation Exodus, but ironically of those MechWarriors who refused his summons fully two-thirds were Atlas pilots. These units were spread among the Successor States and Atlas factories on Al Na'ir, Hesperus II and Quentin would continue production of the 'Mech through the Succession Wars. Most commanders were loath to tamper too much with such a successful 'Mech, but the recovery of the Helm Memory Core resulted in a number of ancient designs being updated with lostech, and the Atlas was no exception. The new AS7-K model was released in 3049, just in time to fight off the Clan Invasion. The Federated Commonwealth also briefly began production of their own model, the AS7-S, although following the civil war that line was discontinued and further variants have been introduced by the Lyran Alliance and Draconis Combine. Despite its age, well into the end of the thirty-first century there were no plans to replace the Atlas, and even the most cutting-edge designs will stop and pause when faced with the prospect of an Atlas bearing down on them. - manufacturer:Field Refit primaryfactory:Field Refit systemmanufacturer:CHASSIS:Foundation Type 10X @@ -176,3 +169,4 @@ systemmanufacturer:ENGINE:Vlar 300 XL systemmanufacturer:ARMOR:Durallex Special Heavy systemmanufacturer:COMMUNICATIONS:Angst Discom systemmanufacturer:TARGETING:Angst Accuracy + diff --git a/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/3050U/Hatamoto-Chi HTM-27T.mtf b/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/3050U/Hatamoto-Chi HTM-27T.mtf index b9da3748f8c..912a36ff108 100644 --- a/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/3050U/Hatamoto-Chi HTM-27T.mtf +++ b/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/3050U/Hatamoto-Chi HTM-27T.mtf @@ -163,10 +163,7 @@ capabilities:The Hatamoto-Series is characterized by its formidable balance of f deployment:The advanced HTM-27T incorporates an endo-steel chassis for increased structural integrity, and boosts its missile arsenal, yet operates with standard heat sinks, limiting sustained fire capabilities.

Its standard configuration emphasizes this role, equipped with six tons of missile ammunition but minimal short-range defense. deployment:The Naga Prime, an 80-ton Clan OmniMech, is a distinct design within the arsenal of Clan warfare, primarily serving as a missile boat. Introduced around 2945 and noted for its specialized role, this variant is built on a Clan Endo Steel structure and powered by a 400 XL (Clan) Engine, allowing a respectable speed for its class.Its primary armament consists of dual Arrow IV launchers located in the left and right torsos, making it a formidable force in long-range artillery engagements. For close-range defense, the Naga Prime is equipped with three ER Small Lasers, one each in the left and right torsos, and one in the center torso. This configuration allows for some defensive capability against units that manage to close the distance.
Despite its firepower, the Naga Prime has certain drawbacks. It lacks arm-mounted weaponry, limiting its versatility in certain combat scenarios. Additionally, its reputation within the Clans is somewhat tarnished, potentially affecting the morale or perception of its pilots. The Mech's ability to twist its torso extensively compensates to some extent for the lack of armaments, providing a broader arc of fire. The Prime variant is well-suited for commanders who require a steady platform for long-range bombardment while maintaining a degree of mobility on the battlefield.

Its effectiveness was convincingly demonstrated during the battle for Tukayyid, where Clan Wolf's Naga-equipped artillery Stars played a pivotal role.

Conceived as a general service 'Mech, the Spartan was known for its remarkable speed and diverse range capabilities, distinguishing it from similar weight class 'Mechs like the Crockett and Thug. Though only a little over 600 units were produced before the destruction of the manufacturing facility during Stefan Amaris' coup, the Spartan dispersed throughout the Inner Sphere, with a few remaining operational in Com Guards and other factions by 3042. + capabilities:The Spartan's hallmark was its versatility across various combat ranges. Its primary long-range weapon, the Kinslaughter ER PPC, was notable for its lower heat generation and ease of maintenance. Medium-range combat was handled by three Blankenburg Technologies medium pulse lasers, offering greater damage output despite a slightly reduced range. For close engagements, it relied on two Streak SRM-2 packs located in the upper center torso. A unique feature was its auxiliary escape hatch, providing an alternate exit when standard ejection was compromised. Its superior speed, capable of reaching over 86 kph, allowed Spartan pilots to effectively control engagement ranges, using speed as a defensive asset. + deployment:The Spartan C variant, a Clan adaptation of the original Inner Sphere Spartan design, is a formidable skirmisher with enhancements suited for modern warfare. This 80-ton BattleMech is propelled by a 400 XL (Clan) engine, achieving a top speed of 54 kph, and its structure is reinforced with Clan Endo Steel, providing a robust framework without significantly increasing its weight.The Spartan C's armor is upgraded to Ferro-Fibrous (Clan) material, offering superior protection. This is crucial for a 'Mech designed to operate close to the front lines, where it can unleash its considerable firepower on enemy forces.
Armament-wise, the Spartan C is heavily focused on energy weapons, reducing its dependence on ammunition supply lines. It boasts four Medium Pulse Lasers, two on each arm, which are effective for both precision targeting and increased damage output at medium range. Additionally, the Spartan C mounts two Large Pulse Lasers, one in each torso, amplifying its striking power at medium to short ranges. The presence of two Streak SRM 4 launchers in the torso further enhances its close-combat capabilities, providing a reliable missile system that locks onto targets with high accuracy.
The Spartan C is equipped with improved targeting and sensor systems, which enable it to engage targets more effectively, especially at short ranges. These technological advancements make the Spartan C a fearsome opponent in battle, capable of delivering devastating attacks while maintaining agility and situational awareness on the battlefield.
+ history:The Spartan, a relic of the Star League era, initially flourished under the Star League's banner but suffered a decline in numbers during the tumultuous Succession Wars. These conflicts severely limited its production, leading to its scarcity across the Inner Sphere. Despite this, the Spartan remained a valued asset for its balanced combat capabilities, especially among mercenary groups and states on the Periphery. Its rarity made it a prime target for salvage operations, with surviving units becoming treasured assets for their owners.Post-Star League, the Spartan's operational numbers dwindled even further. Notably, mercenary units such as Snord's Irregulars managed to maintain a few well-kept Spartans, using them effectively in various combat situations. The Spartan, during this era, symbolized the lost technological prowess of the Star League, with operational units seen as remnants of a bygone time of greater technological advancement.
A brief resurgence in the Spartan's production was attempted by the Word of Blake during their reign, focusing on new unit production on Terra. However, this initiative was short-lived and had minimal impact on the overall presence of the Spartan in the Inner Sphere. The discovery of Spartan blueprints by the Capellan Confederation in the post-Jihad era sparked renewed interest in the 'Mech. The Capellans developed the SPT-N4 variant, infusing modern technology into the classic design, thereby enhancing the Spartan's utility on the modern battlefield. This reintroduction underscored the Spartan's enduring legacy as a versatile and reliable 'Mech, despite its historical rarity and the evolving challenges of mech combat.
The Spartan's history within the Clan space, particularly among the Fire Mandrill Kindraa, tells a different tale of resilience and adaptation. The Kindraa, lacking immediate access to OmniMech technology due to internal politics and conflicts, relied heavily on refurbished Star League units like the Spartan C. This model served them well for centuries, eventually transitioning to garrison duties as OmniMechs became more prevalent. The last known sighting of a Spartan C in the Clan Homeworlds was in 3067, marking the end of its era in Clan service. Notably, the Spartan C never made it to the Inner Sphere, leaving its battle performance largely undocumented except for historical accounts.
One such account dates back to 2872 during a conflict on Foster, where Star Captain Tomas Jewel of the Smythe-Jewel Kindraa, piloting a Spartan C, demonstrated the 'Mech's capabilities by achieving multiple enemy kills, including a decisive victory over a Coyote Lupus B. Despite being heavily outgunned and outnumbered, Jewel's leadership and the Spartan's resilience played a pivotal role in the Kindraa's battle efforts. The eventual fall of Smythe-Jewel Kindraa, marked by Jewel's last stand, signified the end of an era for the Spartan C within the Fire Mandrill ranks.

After the introduction of the HTM-26T and 27T models, the Hatamoto-Chi underwent a series of modifications, each tailored to specific tactical needs and technological advancements within the Combine. The HTM-27U, known as the Hatamoto-Hi, emerged as a response to the need for a more heat-efficient and close-combat capable Mech. The integration of Medium Pulse Lasers and an additional heat sink in the 27U variant made it a popular choice for MechWarriors engaging in more aggressive combat scenarios.Similarly, the HTM-27V (Hatamoto-Kaze) and HTM-27W (Hatamoto-Ku) variants represented strategic shifts towards long-range and direct fire combat, respectively. The 27V's focus on missile weaponry and the 27W's implementation of an Autocannon/5 provided MechWarriors with greater versatility in battlefield engagements, enhancing the Hatamoto-Chi's adaptability across different combat situations.
-The introduction of the HTM-28T marked a significant advancement, featuring ER PPCs and Streak SRM-6 launchers, and the inclusion of a C3 slave unit, signifying the Combine's growing emphasis on network-centric warfare. This variant was particularly notable for its improved jumping capability, enhancing the Mech's mobility on the battlefield.
-As the Draconis Combine faced new challenges in the post-Clan Invasion era and beyond, the Hatamoto-Chi continued to evolve. The HTM-30S Hatamoto-Suna and HTM-30Z Hatamoto-Godai variants, with their advanced weapon systems and electronic warfare capabilities, showcased the Combine's response to the changing dynamics of interstellar warfare. The HTM-30Z, equipped for command roles, became a symbol of leadership and strategic command on the battlefield.
-In conclusion, the Hatamoto-Chi's history is not just a tale of technological innovation but also a reflection of the Draconis Combine's strategic adaptability and cultural evolution in Mech warfare. Each variant of the Hatamoto-Chi has contributed to its legacy as a formidable and versatile warrior on the battlefields of the Inner Sphere.

The inclusion of an ER PPC in the left torso provides a formidable long-range attack option, complementing its weapon suite. A TAG system is also integrated, augmenting its capability to designate targets for allied forces, making the SPT-N4 a valuable asset in coordinated team strategies.
+ history:The Spartan, initially produced in limited numbers by the Star League, saw a decline in deployment during the Succession Wars due to production cessation and battlefield attrition. Despite this, the 'Mech maintained a niche presence, particularly among mercenary groups and peripheral states where its balanced capabilities in assault roles were valued. The Spartan's rarity made it a target for salvage operations, and those that survived became prized assets for their owners.Post-Star League, the Spartan's presence dwindled significantly, with only a few units known to be operational. Notably, Snord's Irregulars operated a few well-maintained Spartans, utilizing them effectively in various combat scenarios. This period marked the Spartan as a symbol of lost Star League technology, with its operational units being remnants of a bygone era.
The Word of Blake's period saw a brief attempt at reviving the Spartan, with efforts to produce new units on Terra. However, this initiative was short-lived and had minimal impact on the Spartan's overall presence in the Inner Sphere.
In the post-Jihad era, the discovery of Spartan blueprints by the Capellan Confederation led to a resurgence in interest. The Capellans developed the SPT-N4 variant, which incorporated modern technology into the classic design. This variant aimed to enhance the Spartan's battlefield utility while retaining its fundamental characteristics. The reintroduction of the Spartan into modern warfare, especially its sale to prominent units like the Wolf's Dragoons, indicated its enduring legacy as a versatile and reliable 'Mech, despite its historical scarcity and the challenges of modern mech combat.

Surviving 'Mechs were taken into Exodus, symbolizing their significance. In the 3050s, Norse-Storm BattleMechs revived the Thunder Hawk among other Star League-era designs. + capabilities:Dominating the Thunder Hawk's arsenal are three Norse Gauss rifles, accounting for over half its weight. These long-range weapons can incapacitate most foes with a single barrage. Ammunition is distributed throughout the torso to mitigate critical damage risks. However, its Achilles' heel lies in the extra-light Vlar fusion engine. While heavily armored, any breach in the torso significantly compromises the BattleMech’s structural integrity, rendering it inoperable. + deployment:The Thunder Hawk TDK-7Z, a missile-focused variant of the storied Thunder Hawk line, is a notable example of adapting classic designs to modern warfare requirements. It stands out for its use of a composite internal structure, a feature that brings both advantages and disadvantages.Armed with three Thunderbolt 20 missile launchers and complemented by four ER Medium Lasers, the TDK-7Z excels in delivering devastating missile barrages at a range of combat scenarios. The missile launchers, placed strategically in the arms and torso, form the core of its offensive capabilities.
The composite internal structure of the TDK-7Z contributes significantly to its performance. This advanced material reduces the overall weight of the 'Mech, allowing for the inclusion of heavier weaponry like the Thunderbolt 20s without sacrificing speed. However, this advantage comes at the cost of durability. Composite structures are more fragile than standard internal structures, making the 'Mech more susceptible to critical damage, especially in intense combat situations. This vulnerability is particularly concerning given the lack of CASE in the TDK-7Z, increasing the risk of catastrophic ammunition explosions.
Commanders fielding the TDK-7Z must therefore balance its potent offensive capabilities with its structural weaknesses. Its role as a missile boat is best utilized in scenarios where it can leverage its long-range firepower while minimizing exposure to direct enemy fire, thus mitigating the risks associated with its composite structure. Despite these concerns, the TDK-7Z remains a valued asset for its overwhelming long-range firepower and the tactical flexibility it offers on the battlefield.
+ history:The Thunder Hawk became a hallmark of the Lyran Alliance, extensively utilized during the FedCom Civil War. Contrary to its design as a support 'Mech, Loyalists deployed it in direct combat, leveraging its heavy armor. Post-war, Archon Peter Steiner Davion allocated new Thunder Hawks to units loyal to Allied forces.

Its reasonably sturdy armor and advanced electronics suite also predestined it as a MOD, which first showed up in the ranks of the Twenty-first Centauri Lancers. DiNapoli was taken over by Bannson Universal Unlimited in June 3132, and it is likely that arming civilian machinery, thereby reinforcing Jacob Bannson’s private army, was a further motive for the buyout—next to accessing DiNapoli’s DropShip facilities. Of course, the Steel Wolves took control of Ankaa only a few months later and now field the Opossum themselves. - capabilities:The Opossum SalvageMech is rarely modded—Bannson’s focus on paramilitary DiNapoli equipment has largely been aimed at the Demeter. It was actually a mercenary command who came up with a standardized modification to mate the Opossum’s high-grade armor and electronics with a ballistic weapon by removing the right arm assembly. Though the addition of the light autocannon limits this SalvageMech’s ability to grab, drag, and repair damaged ’Mechs in the field, the capability for self-defense is valued by mercenaries and splinter factions which do not possess the assets to field purely non-combatant units, let alone the resources to protect them. - deployment:Though it debuted in several small actions during 3131, the Twenty-first Centauri Lancers’ MOD of the Opossum didn’t really attract much public attention until May 3132, when the Lancers deployed Rasbid’s light support lance to Ventabren to assist in a joint Oriente-Republic salvage operation of a Golden Dawn-era battlefield. Captain Chak Rasbid had lobbied heavily for the assignment when it became available, touting the proven record for both salvage retrieval and combat effectiveness displayed by lance tech Jon Roberson in the previous year’s actions as a prime advantage for his command. Roberson justified his captain’s faith when, two weeks into the assignment, the salvage site was attacked by assailants in unmarked vehicles and battle armor. Once again, Roberson proved the value of a combat-capable SalvageMech when he used his ’Mech’s autocannon to defend himself against several attackers while in the middle of a delicate extraction operation on a BattleMech with a damaged fusion reactor. His coolness under fire, as well as the capabilities of his MODded ’Mech, impressed both the Oriente and RAF on-site officials and he enjoyed a day or two as a local news item on Ventabren and nearby worlds. The successful completion of this mission and in particular the performance of Roberson’s unique MOD under such conditions convinced Lancer Colonel Richard Haskell to implement similar modifications to a significant proportion of the unit’s Opossums. - history:The success of the Lancers’ MOD has prompted Bannson Universal to introduce for sale a standardized kit to replicate the ad hoc modifications made by Roberson. Bannson’s illegal military arm, the Raiders, have taken advantage of corporate synergy to introduce a number of modded Opossums into their ranks. Appropriately enough, these Opossums first appeared in September 3132 in a raid conducted by the Scourge against a Belyakov-Ourobouros depot on Fletcher. The defenders were wholly unprepared for this assault and with only unMODded IndustrialMechs at their disposal, they were quickly overwhelmed by Bannson’s forces. The Scourge Opossums not only performed effectively in a combat role but were able to make use of their salvage capabilities, though reduced by virtue of their modding, to acquire a sizeable haul from the BelOuros depot. This action, as well as subsequent deployments throughout Prefectures III and IV, have inspired Bannson’s competitors to develop their own MOD packages for their Opossums and other SalvageMechs. - manufacturer:DiNapoli Industries primaryfactory:Ankaa systemmanufacturer:CHASSIS:IM Heavy II diff --git a/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/TRO Irregulars/Opossum OPO-3 SalvageMech MOD.mtf b/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/TRO Irregulars/Opossum OPO-3 SalvageMech MOD.mtf index ed35d3862fe..17d3ecefb21 100644 --- a/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/TRO Irregulars/Opossum OPO-3 SalvageMech MOD.mtf +++ b/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/TRO Irregulars/Opossum OPO-3 SalvageMech MOD.mtf @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ -chassis:Opossum SalvageMech -model:OPO-3 MOD +generator:MegaMek Suite 0.50.1-SNAPSHOT on 2024-11-09 +chassis:Opossum +model:OPO-3 SalvageMech MOD mul id:7848 Config:Biped @@ -9,6 +10,7 @@ source:TRO: Irregulars rules level:2 role:Sniper + mass:25 engine:75 ICE Engine(IS) structure:IS Industrial @@ -147,11 +149,8 @@ Foot Actuator -Empty- overview:DiNapoli Industries may be remembered for their licensed production of the Demeter AgroMech, but it was the Opossum SalvageMech with which they entered the market in 3110.

CASE protects the pilot from catastrophic ammunition explosions, and double-strength heat sinks counter the high heat generated by the array of standard and pulse lasers.
The Dragon Fire's strengths lie in its robust firepower and defensive capabilities. Its ability to deliver significant damage at various ranges makes it effective in both long-range bombardment and close-quarters combat. The inclusion of advanced weaponry like the Gauss rifle enhances its lethality on the battlefield. However, the high heat output from its energy weapons requires careful management to avoid overheating, which could lead to temporary shutdowns or catastrophic failures. Its moderate speed, combined with its heavy armor, allows it to hold its ground under heavy fire, making it a durable and reliable unit in prolonged engagements.
+ deployment:Belonging to Thirty-seventh Division Demi-Precentor and later Precentor Gregory Kishimoto, this custom 'Mech was equipped with a Light Fusion Engine, an Improved C3i computer, a Small Cockpit, and used an Endosteel skeleton. For weaponry, it had a very powerful left torso-mounted Heavy Gauss Rifle with 2 tons of ammunition. This gun was backed up by a plasma rifle with two 2 tons of ammunition, which were protected by CASE. For an added medium-range punch, this custom variant also had a Light PPC and a pair of ER Medium Lasers. + history:The Dragon Fire walked off the JBBMI production lines in late 3058, with the first company going directly to the Draconis Combine. It proved itself in Operation Bulldog and the subsequent Great Refusal, which caused orders for the design to surge among units facing the Clan threat. A subsidiary contract with the Word of Blake in the mid-3060s incorporated the Word’s improved C3 technology, helping JBBMI achieve solid profit goals. In early 3068, JBBMI encountered a financial crisis when three stockholders gained over sixty percent of the corporation, leading to the closure of most production facilities in the Alliance, the Combine, and the Suns, with massive layoffs. Unconfirmed reports suggest new production facilities have been opened on Epsilon Eridani, Caph, and New Earth. + manufacturer:Field Refit primaryfactory:Various systemmanufacturer:CHASSIS:Royalstar ATE with Endo Steel diff --git a/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Boondocks/Spindrift Aquatic SecurityMech SDT-1.mtf b/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Boondocks/Spindrift Aquatic SecurityMech SDT-1.mtf index 533e689a96f..e087391b80c 100644 --- a/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Boondocks/Spindrift Aquatic SecurityMech SDT-1.mtf +++ b/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Boondocks/Spindrift Aquatic SecurityMech SDT-1.mtf @@ -1,36 +1,37 @@ +generator:MegaMek Suite 0.50.1-SNAPSHOT on 2024-11-09 chassis:Spindrift Aquatic SecurityMech model:SDT-1 mul id:3021 Config:Biped -TechBase:Inner Sphere -Era:3069 -Source:XTR: Boondocks -Rules Level:4 +techbase:Inner Sphere +era:3069 +source:XTR: Boondocks +rules level:4 role:Ambusher -Mass:30 -Engine:120 Fusion Engine(IS) -Structure:Industrial -Cockpit:Industrial Cockpit (AFC) -Myomer:Standard - -Heat Sinks:10 Single -Walk MP:4 -Jump MP:0 - -Armor:Patchwork -LA Armor:Reactive(Inner Sphere):8 -RA Armor:Reactive(Inner Sphere):8 -LT Armor:Reflective(Inner Sphere):6 -RT Armor:Reflective(Inner Sphere):6 -CT Armor:Heavy Industrial(Inner Sphere):10 -HD Armor:Heavy Industrial(Inner Sphere):5 -LL Armor:Heavy Industrial(Inner Sphere):7 -RL Armor:Heavy Industrial(Inner Sphere):7 -RTL Armor:2 -RTR Armor:2 -RTC Armor:3 + +mass:30 +engine:120 Fusion Engine(IS) +structure:IS Industrial +myomer:Standard + +heat sinks:10 Single +walk mp:4 +jump mp:0 + +armor:Patchwork +LA armor:IS Reactive(Inner Sphere):8 +RA armor:IS Reactive(Inner Sphere):8 +LT armor:IS Reflective(Inner Sphere):6 +RT armor:IS Reflective(Inner Sphere):6 +CT armor:IS Heavy Industrial(Inner Sphere):10 +HD armor:IS Heavy Industrial(Inner Sphere):5 +LL armor:IS Heavy Industrial(Inner Sphere):7 +RL armor:IS Heavy Industrial(Inner Sphere):7 +RTL armor:2 +RTR armor:2 +RTC armor:3 Weapons:2 ER Small Laser, Left Torso @@ -68,7 +69,7 @@ Left Torso: Heat Sink Heat Sink Heat Sink -ISUMU +UMU ISERSmallLaser Environmental Sealing -Empty- @@ -82,7 +83,7 @@ Right Torso: Heat Sink Heat Sink Heat Sink -ISUMU +UMU SRT 6 SRT 6 IS Ammo SRTorpedo-6 @@ -125,7 +126,7 @@ Hip Upper Leg Actuator Lower Leg Actuator Foot Actuator -ISUMU +UMU Environmental Sealing -Empty- -Empty- @@ -139,7 +140,7 @@ Hip Upper Leg Actuator Lower Leg Actuator Foot Actuator -ISUMU +UMU Environmental Sealing -Empty- -Empty- diff --git a/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Caveat Emptor/Gauss-Buster.mtf b/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Caveat Emptor/Gauss-Buster.mtf index c377fa09f5a..dd1ab3a37c0 100644 --- a/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Caveat Emptor/Gauss-Buster.mtf +++ b/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Caveat Emptor/Gauss-Buster.mtf @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ -chassis:Gauss-Buster MilitiaMech -model: +generator:MegaMek Suite 0.50.1-SNAPSHOT on 2024-11-09 +chassis:Gauss-Buster +model:MilitiaMech mul id:8100 Config:Biped @@ -9,11 +10,9 @@ source:XTR: Caveat Emptor rules level:5 role:Sniper - -quirk:easy_maintain -quirk:stable quirk:illegal_design - +quirk:stable +quirk:easy_maintain mass:50 engine:150 ICE Engine(IS) diff --git a/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Kurita/Hatamoto-Kaeru HTM-35X.mtf b/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Kurita/Hatamoto-Kaeru HTM-35X.mtf index 9b79f9c7fe6..3a34137e661 100644 --- a/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Kurita/Hatamoto-Kaeru HTM-35X.mtf +++ b/megamek/data/mekfiles/meks/XTRs/Kurita/Hatamoto-Kaeru HTM-35X.mtf @@ -153,10 +153,7 @@ capabilities:The Hatamoto-Series is characterized by its formidable balance of f deployment:The HTM-35X Hatamoto-Kaeru is an experimental amphibious assault Mech variant, uniquely equipped for underwater combat.

Replacing the standard weapons with a Long Tom Cannon and two Medium X-Pulse Lasers, St. James' Victor can inflict massive amounts of damage on his prey. The 'Mech's jump jets had to be removed to make way for the weapons load, and technicians equipped it with a patchwork of Ferro-Fibrous and Standard Armor as another weight saving measure. A Supercharger mounted on the engine provides the Victor with unexpected bursts of speed. - history:An estimated one thousand Victors had been produced by the time the Star League fell. Many of these left with Aleksandr Kerensky during the Exodus, and when HildCo Interplanetary's three Victor factories were destroyed during the First Succession War, the 'Mech became a prized target with all sides scrambling to salvage serviceable units. Only Independence Weaponry retained the ability to build new Victors, and with their capture by the Federated Suns during the Second Succession War it became the AFFS' primary assault 'Mech and a favorite command model for battalion and regimental commanders. Though the Draconis Combine would eventually retake the company following the War of 3039, most Kurita samurai were too proud to adopt a 'Mech now associated with their enemy, while the Davions made do with purchasing new models from the rebuilt HildCo factory in the St. Ives Compact and funding the construction of Styk's Tao MechWorks. By the time of the Clan Invasion new models of Victors were being produced which incorporated new-found lostech into their design. The formation of the Second Star League and destruction of Clan Smoke Jaguar would finally win the design acceptance by Combine warriors, while the conquest of Styk and St. Ives by the Capellan Confederation forced the Federated Commonwealth to contract General Motors to build more Victors. Though it had officially fallen out of favor, during the FedCom Civil War the Victor remained the favorite of Allied forces, with newer variants seeing use in the years afterwards - -manufacturer:HildCo Interplanetary, HildCo Interplanetary, General Motors/Blackwell Corporation, Independence Weaponry, Robinson Standard BattleWorks, Tao 'Mechworks, TharHes Industries -primaryfactory:St. Ives, Carver V/Liberty, New Valencia, Quentin, Robinson, Styk, Tharkad +manufacturer:Field Refit +primaryfactory:Field Refit systemmanufacturer:CHASSIS:Alshain Class 920 Endo Steel systemmanufacturer:ENGINE:Pitban 340 -systemmanufacturer:ARMOR:Durallex Heavy with CASE -systemmanufacturer:JUMPJET:Lexington Ltd.

The development of this series was initiated to leverage the influx of SLDF BattleMechs gifted by ComStar, focusing on reverse-engineering efforts that combined the strengths of the Thug with the Charger chassis. Spearheaded by the foresight of the future Coordinator of the Draconis Combine, this endeavor aimed to create a long-term technological advantage. Integrating advanced weaponry onto a robust and readily available chassis, the Hatamoto-Series stands as a significant achievement in military engineering, reflecting a progressive approach to Mech warfare. + capabilities:The Hatamoto-Series is characterized by its formidable balance of firepower and defensive capabilities. These Mechs are equipped with a diverse array of energy and missile weapons, enabling effective engagement at multiple ranges. Their considerable armor plating allows them to endure severe combat scenarios, solidifying their role as primary combat units. A key design focus of the Hatamoto-Series is the prioritization of armament strength and survivability, though this comes at the cost of limited heat management and reduced mobility. The series faces challenges in heat dissipation during high-intensity battles, necessitating strategic weapon use by pilots. Despite these constraints, the Hatamoto-Series remains a testament to the Draconis Combine's engineering acumen, blending lethal offensive power with robustness to fulfill various combat requirements effectively. + deployment:The HTM-27W2 is a tactical upgrade of the Hatamoto-Ku variant, distinguished by its focus on enhanced direct fire capabilities. It replaces its predecessor's weapons with two ER PPCs and a Light AC/5, supported by ample ammunition housed in a CASE II protected bay. The integration of a C3 boosted slave unit further augments its role in coordinated combat scenarios, allowing for efficient data sharing and improved battlefield connectivity. This variant stands out for its blend of powerful ranged armaments and advanced communication technologies, making it a formidable asset in both offensive and defensive engagements. + history:The Hatamoto-Chi's development and subsequent variants have played a pivotal role in the evolution of the Draconis Combine's military might. After the introduction of the HTM-26T and 27T models, the Hatamoto-Chi underwent a series of modifications, each tailored to specific tactical needs and technological advancements within the Combine. The HTM-27U, known as the Hatamoto-Hi, emerged as a response to the need for a more heat-efficient and close-combat capable Mech. The integration of Medium Pulse Lasers and an additional heat sink in the 27U variant made it a popular choice for MechWarriors engaging in more aggressive combat scenarios.Similarly, the HTM-27V (Hatamoto-Kaze) and HTM-27W (Hatamoto-Ku) variants represented strategic shifts towards long-range and direct fire combat, respectively. The 27V's focus on missile weaponry and the 27W's implementation of an Autocannon/5 provided MechWarriors with greater versatility in battlefield engagements, enhancing the Hatamoto-Chi's adaptability across different combat situations.
