Avenger Mech

Description

New warfare demands new weapons; no matter the cost and no matter the source. The mech, loosely called the Avenger, is such a mech. Built along completely new lines, basing upon a varsity of stolen parts, rebuilt clan weapons and ware born creativity. Oddly.. its location is far far out on the rim of the IS; being built and tested by a unknown facility.

This mech appears to rise above many others, Little is known of it other then a single sent and re sent transcript of data and a single washed out thermographic image of the mech in off line mode; other then that all who have seen this creation have died somehow. Based around long range and speed, this mech, carries few weapons, but those it does mass, are well suited for its task. Massing in at almost a full hundred tons, it has jump capacity that rivals or is superior to many smaller mechs; giving it a deadly agility in combat, the report saying it destroyed both a captured Zeus and a group of Shadow cat mechs in a few minutes.

Using the powerful reach of its shoulder mounted ATM racks in conjunction with the punch capacity of its light class gauss rifle, the mech is well made; some might say almost perfect for short fast assassin missions, moving in; relying in its huge shield like ECM/TAG module to stay away from targets and to also spot opponents before they see them and its massive jump capacity to move in, strike and fade away. Armoring the mech is a highly stylized and compact array of light ferro fibrous armor; the jump jets themselves contained in two large back mounted pods with control fins almost letting it fly through the air for short ranges.

The design itself hails back to gladiator days, the arms and legs humanoid, possessing fully articulated hands. The cockpit itself is torso mounted in the center, tucked between the missile rack ammo drums, The mechs head is primarily a sensor dome, containing a wide angle active probe built into a high arching crest over its face plate. The overall build is slender, quick, from feet to waist and head.

Though the mechs only energy weapon appears to be a set of small lasers in the head, its overall design seems slated away from large scale warfare where this problem will not factor in, likely operating with one or two support mechs.

Found deep in the Hegemony's terrain on a planet with just a number , no name; the backer for this fast stealth mech is unknown, but what is known is that the desgin works if the fragmentary reports are to be believed.

In the designs favor it has a impressive reach with its weapons, powerful stealth capacity; nearly unmatched jumping agility due to the jump pods being mounted on directional motors and its armor of light ferro plating, lets it absorb damage that would cripple lesser armored mecha; its weapons operate on a low heat non energy factor making IR tracking harder and it can reach targets outside the range of many conventional designs.

Against its build however, the mech has a low ammo count for extended missions, relying almost entirely upon projectile based weapons in the form of the gauss rifle and the missile racks, its only energy weapon being a pair of head mounted anti personnel small lasers and a standard ballistic AMS system. Like most assault mechs as well it has slow ground speed unless one is careful, relying almost entirely on its weapons range and its jump capacity to stay out of close fights. In addition its crushing jump capacity can make poorly trained pilots black out it is assumed or become unable to control its speed while in the air as few assault mechs possess such high leaping abilities. Due to the unusual nature of its construction and the rarity of some of its parts this machine is unlikely to see full production in its current form ever, though lesser equipped versions may be seen some day.
