Description
The Star Crusader is an assault OmniMech developed by the Scorpion Empire based off of Blakist Grand Crusader schematics found on the world Braunschweig. While the Star Crusader visually appears similar to its progenitor, it is constructed entirely from ClanTech. The cavernous torso bays are retained, and they house the Star Crusader's primary weapons. Durable and proven technology was used in an effort to avoid stressing the Scorpion's supply chains.[3] Its 42.5 tons of OmniPod space has given this powerful assault 'Mech a home in the Scorpion's frontline forces.
Weapons and Equipment
Clocking in at a respectable 64 km/h, the Primary Configuration is an agile assault 'Mech designed to engage enemies at range. Dual ER Large Lasers augmented by an advanced Targeting Computer along with twin Streak LRM-20 racks give the Star Crusader accurate long-range firepower. Two ER medium lasers provide respectable back-up weaponry should the enemy close into shorter ranges. An anti-missile system defends against return missile fire, while CASE II protects the missile bays. Jump jets allow the assault 'Mech to find firing perches or to maneuver around challenging terrain. [2]
Alternate Configurations
- Alternate Configuration A
- A brawler, the A's primary weaponry is its agility. Six improved jump jets give this configuration impressive maneuverability. An ER PPC and Gauss rifle allow the A Configuration to exploit the enemy's flanks, while twin Medium Pulse Lasers and a Streak SRM-6 pack provide accurate close-range firepower. BV (2.0) = 2,904[2]
- Alternate Configuration B
- The B Configuration mounts twin Large Pulse Lasers and HAG-20s. These weapons give the B Configuration accurate and deadly anti-air capabilities. Eight tons of Gauss ammo provide ample endurance. An ER Small Laser is mounted in the head, almost as an afterthought. BV (2.0) = 2,551[2]
