The '''''Götterdämmerung''''' is a heavy [[BattleMech]] first fielded by the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] in [[3138]], the 'Mech's [http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/G%C3%B6tterd%C3%A4mmerung German name] translates to "Twilight of the Gods," synonymous with ''Ragnarök'' of Norse mythology.

Shortly after entering service, the ''Götterdämmerung'' would gain a mixed reputation for being a highly durable BattleMech, but a difficult design to escape from should it be downed. The 'Mech saw service in many of the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]]' frontline [[regiment]]s as well as number of [[mercenary]] commands.<ref name=TRO:3145LCp41/>

Its long-range arsenal consists of a right arm mounted [[Defiance 1001]] Extended Range Particle Projection Cannon. Backing the ER PPC is a [[Coventry StarFire]] 15-tubed LRM Launcher which is found where the cockpit is traditionally located, in the head. Along with the launcher, the ammunition has been placed in head as well. The remainder of the 'Mech's firepower is placed in the center torso, making it difficult for an enemy to knock out all five [[Defiance Model XII]] Extended Range Medium Lasers.<ref name=TRO:3145LCp41/>
