Description

The largest BattleMech ever built by HildCo Interplanetary the Pillager is built as a larger version of the Victor and is intended for assaulting urban centers and hardened fortifications. To help achieve its intended missions the Pillager is built using lightweight Vlar 300 XL Engine that weighs half as much as a standard fusion engine and gives the Piliager a top speed of 54.0 km/h The 'Mechs mobility is enhanced with three HildCo Model 13 jump jets that allow it to jump up to ninety meters. The Pillager has excellent armor protection at nineteen and a half tons and has fourteen double heat sinks that provide more then enough heat dissipation capability then the Pillager needs.

Armament

The primary weapons on the Pillager are a pair of Poland Main Model A Gauss Rifles which allow the Pillager to engage an enemy at up to six hundred and sixtey meters. The Gauss Rifles are supported at intermediate ranges by a Defiance B3L Large Laser and for close combat the Pillager has four Ceres Arms Medium Lasers that provide a devestating close range barrage.

Variants

  • PLG-4Z - The 4Z variant of the Pillager is built to provide an almost perfect long range sniper 'Mech. The 4Z varaint incorporated the Capellan Confederation's new Stealth Armor that makes it harder to hit as well as the required Guardian ECM Suite. In order to do this the 'Mech has had two Medium Lasers removed and the Large Laser removed. The remaining Medium Lasers have been upgraded to ER Medium Lasers and the Pillager has also replaced the XL engine with a standard engine and added CASE for more reliability as the 'Mech can survive a side torso destruction. BV (1.0) = 2,542
