Description
Produced by Majesty Metals and Manufacturing in 3108, the Agrotera is a Medium Class BattleMech that would go on to serve in both the Magistracy of Canopus and its ally Capellan Confederation. Based on the Word of Blake's variant of the Phoenix Hawk, the Agrotera is designed as a multipurpose and ammunition efficient design.
The designed would be see action with the MOC's 1st Magistracy Highlanders on Bethonolog in 3108. In this action against heavier pirates, the pair of Agrotera engage full lance heavy BattleMechs. Trying buying time in this urban battle for rest of the Highlanders to arrive, the two manage force the bandits into submission due to the Agrotera 's steady delivery of damaging blows against them while out maneuvering them in the complex. Their performance would soon-to be too much for the pirates and its survivors would end up surrendering just as rest Highlander's heavier units would arrive on the scene.[3]
Armament and Capacities
Designed to with advance techologies in mind, the 'Mech's engineers would enhance the Agrotera 's design with new advancements made during the Jihad. Like the 3060s redesigned Phoenix Hawk, the 'Mech is fitted with a Full-Head Ejection System, which also gives increase the comfort of the MechWarrior. The design also benefits from weight savings by being fitted with a 300-Rated Rawlings Extra-Light Fusion Engine and Extra-Light Gyro. Its hull is protected by 9.5 tons of Standard Armor. TAG equipment would be fitted to allow the design to use as spotter for fire-support units in the 'Mech formation.
The Agrotera 's long-range weapon is its Ceres Arms Smasher Extended Range Particle Projection Cannon mounted in its left arm actuator. The weapon's accuracy is increase due to the fitting of a Actuator Enhancement System being placed in the actuator as well. Aside from the ER PPC, the 'Mech only other ranged weapon is a single Diverse Optics Medium Class Variable Speed Pulse Laser found in the right arm with a regular Medium Pulse Laser. Pair of Diverse Optics Small Pulse Lasers are fitted, one each the side torsos as measurement against infantry & Battle Armor threats to the 'Mech.[4]
