− | ==Description==
| + | {{disambig}} |
− | The late 3050s and early 3060s saw the [[Trial of Refusal#Absorption Right|Absorption]] of [[Clan Burrock]] by [[Clan Star Adder]]. After the proof of collusion with the Bandit Caste, most Burrocks were eager to be rid of the taint of corruption. The Star Adders read this as a desire to join a more powerful [[Clan]], so they were surprised when many former Burrocks clung to that identity. In order to appeal to them, the Star Adder leadership authorized a new [[BattleMech]] to honor them. The '''''Burrock''''' is a fast heavy 'Mech with incredible short-range firepower. Though its [[XL Engine]] leaves it somewhat vulnerable, the ''Burrock'' is protected by twelve and a half tons of armor.

− | ==Armament==
| |
− | The ''Burrock'' lacks any long-range firepower. It uses its speed to close with enemies as quickly as possible and overwhelm them with its devastating arsenal. Perhaps based on the Beta variant of the ''[[Stormcrow]]'', the ''Burrock'' mounts a Model SH [[Ultra Autocannon/20]] in one arm, while six Series 22a [[Heavy Medium Laser]]s are scattered throughout the rest of the [['Mech]]. Twenty [[double heat sink]]s cannot keep the 'Mech cool, though they try.
