Description

With a noticable lack of OmniMechs designed in the Federated Suns [Field Marshall]] Duke George Hasek went over the heads of the DQ anc commissioned Kallon Industries to design an assault OmniMech and backed the project with his own financial resources. The resulting 'Mech is a force to be reckoned with on the modern battlefield. The Templar is built on a lightweight Kallon Type XIX Endo Steel chassis and is powered by a KalTek 340 XL engine that gives the 'Mech a top speed of 64.8 km/h while sacrificing durability. The Templar has thirteen fixed double heat sinks and is armored with sixteen and a half tons of Starshield A armor with CASE fixed in the right torso. Overall this allows the Templar to have fourty tons of free pod space for weapons and equipment which the 'Mech uses efffectively in its variants.

Armament

The primary configuration of the Templar is intended to be abel to engage an enemy effectively at any range. For effective long range hittign power the Templar carries a powerful Gauss Rifle. If the Templar does close with an enemy it can bring its highly accurate Large Pulse Laser, Medium Pulse Laser and two ER Medium Lasers, to bear on a target. For increased accuracy the Gauss Rfle and all the lasers are linked to an advanced Targeting Computer. For seekign weak points in an enemy's armor the Templar Prime has a Streak SRM-4 launcher.

Alternate Configurations

• Alt. Config. A - Intended for long range combat the Templar A is configured to engage an enemy at long ranges. To do this it carries an ER PPC as its primary weapon backed up by an Ultra Autocannon/10 which can fire at twice the rate as a standard autocannon. Both of these are linked to an advanced Targeting Computer for increased accuracy. For close combat the Templar A has a Streak SRM-6 launcher anf dor increased mobility this configuration has four jump jets letting it jump up t one hundred and twenty meters. To protect the 'Mech from enemy electronic warfare systems the 'Mech has a Guardian ECM Suite and to handle the 'Mechs heavy heat load it has an additional double heat sink. BV (1.0) = 2,047

• Alt. Config. B - A workhorse configuration the Templar B can engage an enemy at either short or long ranges. For long range combat the Templar B carries an ER PPC. For intermediate ranges the 'Mech has three Rotary Autocannon/2s and also has two ER Medium Lasers for close combat. To handle the 'Mechs heat load the Templar B has four additional double heat sinks. BV (1.0) = 1,451

• Alt. Config. C - A close combat configuration the C configuration of the Templar carries a devestating LB-X Autocannon/20 as its primary weapons which can fire both solid rounds and shotgun like cluster rounds. Also for close range the Templar C has five Medium Pulse Lasers and an ER Medium Laser which can be used to devestating effect at short range. For long range defense the Templar carries a single ER PPC. To add mobility to the 'Mech it has four pod mounted jump jets that let the Templar C jump up to one hundred and twenty meters. An additonal heat sink is added to help handle the 'Mechs heat. BV (1.0) = 1,726

Non Standard Configurations

• Grayson - A custom configuration of the Templar the Grayson configuration is armed with two Autocannon/5s for long range combat and has four ER Medium Lasers for close combat. The autocannons and lasers are all linked to a Targeting Computer for increased accuracy. To seek out weak points in an enemy's armor the Grayson configuration has two Streak SRM 4 launchers. To handle its heat load easier this configuration has an additional double heaty sink and also has three jump jets for increased mobility allowing it to jump up to ninety meters. BV (1.0) = 1,670

• Tancred - Configured for Tancred Sandoval this configuration carries two Rotary Autocannon/5s that can fire at a rate six times as fast as a standard autocannon. These are backed up by three ER Medium Lasers for close combat For long range engagements the Tancred configuration has a single ER Large Laser. All of these weapons are linked to a Targeting Computer giving them increased accuracy. BV (1.0) = 1,708
