One of my reicent creations, pic is either from Solaris7 or here I dont remeber.
Chassis: Kali Yama Chassis
Power Plant: Kagushima 150
Cruising Speed: 32.25
Maximum Speed: 53.75
Jump Jets: Luxor Load Lifters
Jump Capacity: 60 meters
Armor: Lexington Limited High Grade Ferro-Fibrous with CASE
Armament:
4 Light Machine Guns
1 Plasma Rifle
2 ATM-3s
Manufacturer: Luthien Armor Works
Primary Factory: Luthien
Communications System: Tek BattleCom with Angel ECM Suite
Targeting and Tracking System: Sturmfeur Highlight with BlindFire Radar with TAG, Variable-Range Targeting
Overview:
This light design, based around a Cougar frame, is purpose built
for a steath combat role, relying on its ATM racks and powerful
plasma rifle to engage the target from long range. High speed and
exellent jumping ability allows this mech to leap over larger,
heavier foes with ease. Utalizing a compact but powerful TAG, this
medium mech performs well in both sniper and long range bombardment
roles. Up close its no slouch either, carring a array of four light
machine guns for armor chewing and enough ammuntion to make the
rather light guns count. The High Explosive missles also give this
fast design a nasty close range barrage ability. Best used in groups
or in close range urban combat, its primary long range weapon, the
plasma cannon; while normally hampered by high heat cost, is deadly
in this lighter, 'sink heavy design; the pilot easily able to get off
three or more shots before the weapon needs a cool down, typically
allowing the missle racks time to cycle to active mode.
Capabilities:
While not as large as most battlemechs of its class and due to
the Cougar like design many mis name it, this agile combat mecha
quickly becomes a distinct target, due to the heatsinks this machine
has been described as a 'Flaming death' mech seeming to be able to
unleash the heavy plasma rifle almost non stop and the addtion of the
powerfully long ranged missle racks means this rather small mech can
pound targets significantly heavier then it at ranges outside of most
weapons capacity; and flee before said targets can retaliate. While
the choice of light caliber machine guns is seen as some as dubious,
thier secondary role as point armor destruction and/or anti infantry
use cannot be denied when used in conjunction with the AP pods
mounted in the legs. Due to the size restrictions of the mecha the
ATM racks were fitted in a late addition with HE (High explosive)
warheads as a way to offset the rather low ammunition count, each
system carrying only a single reload of ammuntion for each rack,
caution is best used when deploying them at long range. While this
design, can almost literally out run or jump over targets its rather
thin Ferro fib. armor configuration means many pilots must step
carefully when at close quarters, speed factor over armor factor
often the keypoint to winning a battle with this machine. Carrying a
full array of anti sensor gear in the form of a Angel ECM pod, the
mech is also well suited for emplacement roles providing the region
is decently armored; several mercinary groups have already began
purchasing these rather low cost, well armed mechs for that exact
reason when base defense is a high factor among them.
Deployment:
As of this date four hundred of the battlemechs have been
produced by JMY via assistance from LAW and have been purchased by
either the DCMS itself or several merc groups such as the Northwind
Highanders as supplmental units, even Clan wolf in exile has bought
several lances of thes hybrid battlemechs for testing and use in
second line units.
Battle History:
The unit has seen battle against the Federated Commonwealth on
several boarder worlds; most notably a extended lance of 5 of the
WS-001aO units held off a assault lance of FC battlemechs for over
five hours, suffering only the loss of a single unit until
reinforcments could arrive.
Known Variants:
The WS-001a0 is the only currenly produced model of this
battlemech.

Pic is cool, but definitely not from Solaris 7. At least not from the fasa boxed set Solaris 7, Solaris: The Reaches, or Unbound.

no, the site, im not sure I found the pic in a google images search as referance for the configuration. and now Deviantart, or someone on there has mentioned that there might be a problem with me using the pic as referance, even though.. a LOT of people who design mechs use premade drawings, since a lot of the changes are internal after all but who knows.

The design it self is interesting, though.

thanks  its how i spec a lot of my designs. sure singley the weapons prolly will suck, but LMGs for anti PA and infantery work pretty good, and they still frag armor up close. plasma rifle isnt quite as hot as a PPC can get but its basically the same thing, and a ATM as superior range to LRMS, sure less load count, but its a good bit more accurate when it hits.
