Description

The Brigand is a 'Mech that is surrounded by a sea of contavrsy as it is the first 'Mech to be produced by a pirate band. Produced by a company named Vengeance Incorporated]], which is run by the pirates od the Haven Star Cluster and "Lady Death" Trevaline, the Brigand represents an unprecedented threat because of the fact that while it is built by pirates it uses advanced construction techniques and weapons. The 'Mech is built on a Contraband Endo Steel chassis ind is powered by a GM 150 fusion engine that gives it a top speed of 97.2 km/h. The 'Mechs speed is augmented by six Contraband jump jets that allow the 'Mech to jump up to one hundred and eighty meters. For protection the Brigand has four tons of Haven Cent armor.

Armament

The Brigand carries two Diverse Optics ER Medium Lasers for medium range combat and has two Sutel Precision Line Medium Pulse Lasers for close combat. The 'Mech utilizes an arsenal consisting only of lasers to limit the amount of logistical support needed.

Variants

  • LDT-X1 - A variant of the Brigand intended to bring more firepower on a target at the sacrifice of accuracy the X1 removes the two Medium Pulse LAsers and replaces them with four Medium Lasers. BV (1.0) = 838
  • LDT-X2 - Somethign of a quick strike version of the Brigand the X2 removes the 2 Medium Pulse Lasers and replaces them with four Rocket Launcher-15s . These give the 'Mech an astounding amoutn of firepower in one shot makign ti a serious threat to other light 'Mechs when encountered. BV (1.0) = 780
