While coupled with the ''[[Boggart]]'', the ''Sprite'' would rain down long range fire on enemy units, allowing the ''Boggart'' to get closer and inflict more damage. The five [[Extended Jump Jet]]s mounted on the unit allow the ''Sprite'' to keep up with its lighter partner. One very valuable feature of the ''Sprite'' is its heavy armor. The ProtoMech can survive an [[Autocannon/20]] hit to the torso. With the heavy armor, the ''Sprite'' was most frequently used by the Society's most experienced ProtoMech pilots. This kept them well protected, but the ''Sprite's'' low top speed and limited ammunition meant that these warriors had to choose their targets carefully or risk running out of ammunition at a critical time. ==Weapons and Equipment== As a fire support unit, the ''Sprite'' carries a quartet of [[LRM-5]] launchers. The torso-mounted launchers cover the front arc very well, while the arm mounted launchers provide a wider field of fire. Each launcher is equipped with twelve reloads, but in heavy combat this can quickly run out and leave the ''Sprite'' defenseless. ==Variants== *;Sprite 2 : This ''Sprite'' variant removes the [[LRM]] launchers and replaces them with a single [[ER Large Laser]].
