[edit] Description
The Sunder is the product of what was learned from captured Loki and Thor OmniMechs. The Sunder weighs ninety tons and uses a Hermes 360 XL Engine to save weight while giving the 'Mech a top speed of 65 km/h which is a respectable speed for a ninety ton 'Mech. The Sunder carries seventeen and a half tons of armor protection and has fifteen double heat sinks to handle the assault 'Mechs heavy heat load. The Sunder carries a chaotic and powerful mix of weapons and equipment in all of its configurations that have proven themselves time and again against both Clan and Inner Sphere adversaries.
[edit] Armament
In its primary configuration, the Sunder carries an impressive weapons array. The 'Mech carries two Large Lasers for its primary long-range weapons. For short-range engagements, the Sunder has an Autocannon/20 for the bulk of its firepower. This is supported by two Medium Lasers and a trio of SRM-4 launchers, making the Sunder prime most lethal at short ranges.
[edit] Alternate Configurations
- Alt. Config A - The Sunder A is armed primarily for long-range engagements. The primary weapon is an ER PPC supported by a Gauss Rifle for direct fire engagements. The Sunder A carries three LRM-5 launchers, allowing it to attack an enemy with indirect missile fire in support of allied units. For close range defense, the Sunder A has two Medium Pulse Lasers which provide enough firepower to defend itself from lighter units at close ranges. BV (1.0) = 1,722
- Alt. Config B - Configured to command a large C3 unit, the Sunder B has two C3 master computers. These allow the Sunder B to coordinate up to four lances of 'Mechs at one time. The 'Mech is also intended to stay at long ranges with an arsenal of an LRM-20 launcher and an LRM-10 launcher to bombard an enemy from long range. For short range defense, the 'Mech has two Medium Pulse Lasers and a Medium Laser. This configuration of the Sunder is vulnerable to rushing attacks due to its reliance on long range missiles. BV (1.0) = 1,362
- Alt. Config C - Intended to work as a close combat 'Mech in a C3 lance, the Sunder C has a C3 Slave unit to allow it to coordinate itself with a C3 lance. The 'Mech has an MRM-30 and an MRM-40 which can overwhelm an enemy with missile fire. For close ranges, the Sunder C has a pair of Streak SRM-4 launchers. The primary drawback of this configuration is its high dependence on ammunition which can cause the Sunder C to withdraw from the field before the battle is finished. BV (1.0) = 1,362
- Alt. Config D - The Sunder D is configured to engage an enemy at both long and short ranges. In order to do this, the 'Mech carries a powerful yet basic weapons payload. For long range combat, the Sunder D has two PPCs that allow it to strike an enemy at long range. For close ranges, the Sunder D has an LB-X Autocannon/20. The Sunder D is most effective where the weapons ranges overlap and allow the 'Mech to bring all three weapons to bear on its enemy. BV (1.0) = 1,782
