Line 4: ''[[MechWarrior Online]]'' features the ''Boar's Head'' as one of its [[Hero 'Mech]]s. While the original ([[canonical]]) entry gives no indication that the 'Mech was anything but a stock AS7-D ''Atlas'', the MWO Hero 'Mech variant (tentatively dated [[3052]]) is portrayed as a heavily customized design, its alphanumerical code given as AS7-BH. It features a 400-rated [[XL engine]], [[endo steel]] armor, and six [[medium pulse laser]]s; the autocannon was downgraded to an [[AC/10]] and the [[LRM]] launcher to an [[LRM-10]], while the [[SRM-6]] launcher was dropped entirely.<ref name=MWOTBH>''MechWarrior Online - PATCH NOTES - 1.2.245 - 01-OCT-2013</ref> ''[[MechWarrior Online]]'' features the ''Boar's Head'' as one of its [[Hero 'Mech]]s.
