Description
The first of the OmniMechs to be conceptualized in the first generation of Draconis Combine OmniMechs and one of the last to reach production, the Avatar's design is based on captured Vulture OmniMechs. The Avatar is used primarily by the DCMS, but has also been sold to the Lyran Alliance and ComStar. The Avatar weighs in at seventy tons and is powered by a Hermes 280 XL Engine that gives it a top speed of 64.8 km/h. It is protected by twelve tons of StarSlab/4 armor as comes with CASE to protect the 'Mech against complete destruction from an internal ammunition explosion. The Avatar is a powerful OmniMech in its various configurations, with an impressive thirty four tons of pod space allowing it to carry a wide range of weapons.
Armament
The Avatar has two Ichibi 2000 Medium Lasers that are permanently mounted on the chassis and are present in all of its configurations. In its primary configuration the Avatar caries two LRM-10 launchers with Artemis IV Fire Control Systems for increased missile accuracy. These are backed by an LB-X Autocannon/10 that can fire both solid rounds and cluster ammunition making it suited to a variety of roles. For close range combat the primary configuration adds two Machine Guns and two Medium Pulse Lasers.
Alternate Configurations
- Alt. Config. A - Focused on close combat the A configuration carries an ER Large Laser as its only long range weapon. Mounting a pair of SRM-6 launchers, an Autocannon/20 and the two Medium Lasers mounted on the base chassis, the Avatar A is a fearsome opponent with devastating close range punch. BV (1.0) = 1,204
- Alt. Config. B - A fire support variant, the B configuration carries two LRM-15 racks and two LRM-10 racks. These are all mated to an Artemis IV Fire Control System. The only short range weaponry on the B configuration consists wholly of the two Medium Lasers mounted on the base chassis. BV (1.0) = 1,179
- Alt. Config. C - The C configuration carries a C3 Master Computer into battle, allowing the Avatar to act as the central node of a C3 lance. The C configuration attempts to keep enemies at arms length with a PPC and Ultra Autocannon/5 supported by a pair of LRM-10 launchers. The Avatar C protects itself at short ranges with its two hard mounted Medium Lasers. BV (1.0) = 1,094
- Alt. Config. D - A newer configuration that uses technology from the Free Worlds League and the Draconis Combine, the D configuration is intended to act as a sniper. The primary weapon is a Light Gauss Rifle which has a range of 750 meters. For close to medium range combat, the Avatar D has two MRM 20 launchers and a pair of ER Medium Lasers in addition to the two hard wired Medium Lasers. Finally the D Configuration has a C3 Slave unit that allows it to work in C3 lances. BV (1.0) = 1,170
- Alt. Config. E - Used by ComStar and the Word of Blake, the E configuration is armed with an ER PPC for long range punch and can bring its powerful Ultra Autocanon/10 to bear as it closes with its enemy. If the target of the Avatar Es pilot survives long range combat an ER Medium Laser and the two hard wired Medium Lasers give the E configuration good short range firepower. BV (1.0) = 1,383
- Alt. Config. F - A versatile, yet simple configuration of the Avatar, the F configuration is armed with an ER PPC and a LB-X Autocannon/20. A MechWarrior can utilise the ER PPC for long range combat and once it closes in it can let loose with the armor shredding LB-X AC/20. These potent weapons are backed up by the two hardwired Medium Lasers. Additionally, for added mobility the F configuration can jump up to one hundred and twenty meters. BV (1.0) = 1,607
