Overview: The Heracles is a Combat Engineering Mech, capable of digging and clearing terrain even under fire. It has some combat capabilities, mostly for defensive purposes or for clearing obstacles.
Capabilities: The Heracles comes with twin industrialmech type arm mounts, allowing it to be adapted to the intended job. The most common tool is a backhoe. Chainsaws and rock drills are popular too.
The Heracles is quite well armed and has a triple-strength myomer system, though this is not meant for use in combat, rather it gives the Heracles more push in difficult situations.
Its main weapon is a PPC, a useful ranged weapon and suitable for demolition work. A medium laser gives pinpoint accuracy for cutting and general "finer" work. A flamer doubles both as an anti-infantry weapon and an incendiary device. Finally an MML9 with two tons of ammo gives the Heracles some flexibility in both range and ammo types such as the use of FASCAM and Mine clearing warheads.
Battle History: The Heracles was mostly limited to engineers and pioneer troops. Never widespread, this specialist design was found only with units dedicated to front-line service, most other militaries preferring cheaper standard workmechs instead.
They had a brief resurgeance after the Jihad when the Republic military procured substantial numbers, many of which served as battlemechs during the Dark Age.
Only the richer mercenaries or house units can afford the Heracles, those that do have access to one or more have been grateful for its effectiveness and invaluable ability to perform engineering tasks in or near combat areas. Unfortunately this has made them priority targets for enemy forces, requiring troops to be dedicated to their protection.
Deployment: The single largest concentration of Heracles outside of the Republic is the Federated Suns, closely followed by the Capellan Confederation who found them invaluable in combat operations, so much so that it was licensed and produced in the Confederation after the Jihad.
Variants: The actual tools can be swapped for other equipment depending on the task required. Some have tinkered with the armament, replacing PPC with an autocannon or a pulse laser. The only official variant is a demolitions type that replaces the PPC and MML with an AC/20.
