------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ==Overview:== Although not as revered as the Orion, the Atlas still holds great significance for the Clans, having been propsed by Kerensky himself. The latest version upgrades this classic assault mech with the latest Clan weapon technology.
==Capabilities:== The 3070 Clan version of the Atlas differs little, structurally speaking, outwardly and inwardly from its Inner Sphere counterpart. Powered by a VLAR 300 engine, unchanged since Kerensky's days, with conventional armour and inner structure, the main difference lies with its weaponry.
The Atlas IIC carries a fearsome array of heavy weapons. The LRM has been replaced by an ATM launcher, giving it a flexible missile array, backed up by an SRM 6 streak launcher.
A Gauss Rifle and a pair of Heavy Large Lasers are the direct fire weapons.
Twenty double strength HS keeps the Atlas IIC's head burned quite manageable. Only the most careless pilot would overheat this machine.
The Atlas IIC has better ranged weapons than the old AS7D version, but it relies heavily on ammunion weapons for most of its firepower. Though the paired Heavy Lasers are much more powerful than the old medium lasers, the Atlas IIC can be a sitting duck if it runs out of ammo when confronted by enemy mechs sniping away at it.
==Battle History:== The Atlas IIC 3070 has seen little combat so far, like most second-line mechs.
First deployed by the Steel Vipers, the unusual combination of an ATM and Heavy Lasers surprised observers who believed that these weapons would not spread so quickly among the Clans.
The only Inner Sphere report of an engagement with an Atlas IIC was during a deep strike by Word of Blake forces on a Steel Viper holding.
An Atlas IIC supported by a Hellhound and a Wyvern IIC engaged several WOB mechs, including a Vanquisher and a Grand Titan, both of which were overwhelmed by massive firepower. The remaining WOB mechs withdrew and began to use their long range weapons to hold off the Atlas, but they were caught by Viper reinforcements and destroyed.
==Variants:== The older Atlas IIC mounted an LB20X, an LRM 20 and SRM 6 with Artemis FCS and a pair of ER Large Lasers.
Data released by Clan Wolf during the Clan Invasion reported that Clan Wolf experimented with a version mounting jump jets, and that a version in service with the Jade Falcons mounted ECM and an Anti-missile system.
==Deployment== Although the Atlas is a second-line mech, it is considered special due to its connection with General Kerensky.
Atlas IIC mechs are often assigned to high profile posts and Atlas duty is considered an honour.
The new Steel Viper Atlas incorporates the latest technology, leading some to belive that the design has been shared with at least another Clan.
