 +
==Weapons and Equipment==
 +
The Achernar ''AgroMech''<ref>''Ghost War'' (Original Printing), Mini-TRO 3130 - Fluff names the machine Company name type of machine it is, thus giving it a unique name.</ref> is equipped with a Class III Heavy-Duty Claw, to allow it to move grain or other items it must handle.  Its primary piece of equipment is a Rotary Saw.
 +
The machine is powered by a 140 rated [[Internal Combustion Engine]] which allows it to move around fields very quickly.
 +
 
 +

==Variants==
 +
*;AgroMech MOD : This is a stripped down and armed variant of the ''AgroMech'' which began to appear in [[3132]]. The variant suffers from a significant reduction of armor and speed. It is armed with [[AC-5|Class 5 Armstrong Autocannon]] with twenty rounds ammunition which are both mounted in the 'Mech's right arm. In addition to its autocannon, the 'Mech has been fitted with a single [[Heat Sink]] found in its right leg which allows the 'Mech to enter water for cooling purposes. BV (1.0) = 339<ref>''Record Sheets: MechWarrior Dark Age I'', p. 32</ref>
 +
 
 +
*;AgroMech MOD-B : This the second military refit/variant of the ''AgroMech''.  This variant continues to use Starslab/3 Military Armor.  Its right arm's lower actuator is replaced with a [[Rotary Autocannon/2]].  It still mounts its original DiNapoli “Groundhog” Reinforced Combine after closing for melee combat.<ref>http://cf.sarna.net/docs/mwda_dossiers/fire_for_effect_29.pdf MWDA Bannson's Raider's dossier of Bill Maiglow</ref>

==Record Sheet and Fluff Notes==
 +
The ''AgroMech'' was one of the early [[MechWarrior: Dark Age]] IndustrialMechs to be given stats. Since this design was published in 2002, the 'Mech's armor uses [[Armor - BattleMechs & Vehicles|Standard BattleMech]] armor instead of Industrial Armor introduced in [[TechManual]].
 +
 
 +
Naming conventions state that it is representative of all ''AgroMechs'' produced. Thus another generic design, the ''Harvester'' though similar to this 'Mech, is considered different.
