==Description==
 
==Description==
The '''''Hades''''' is an exclusive design to  [[Wolf's Dragoons]] developed from the ''[[Hellbringer (Loki)|Loki]]'' and is an attempt to rectify that design's poor armor problems while retaining its offensive capabilities. The standard chassis is replaced with an Endo Steel model and the armor is upgraded to [[ferro-fibrous]]. The ''Hades'' maintains the same mobility of the original ''Loki''.

==Weapons and Equipment==
The Prime variant closely matches that of the original ''Loki''. The primary weapons are a pair of [[ER PPC]]s with three [[Extended Range Medium Laser|ER Medium Laser]]s and a [[Streak SRM-6]] missile rack for close range. An advanced [[Targeting Computer]] gives the energy weapons lethal accuracy, and an [[Active Probe]] and [[ECM Suite]] help to minimize any tactical advantage the enemy may have, while enhancing its own tactical ability with the addition of a [[C3 slave]] computer. The C3 slave is a fixed component common to all configurations. To help increase battle longevity, the ''Hades'' also carried an [[anti-missile system]].<ref name=MFUK10>''MFUK Record Sheets Ten''</ref>

==Alternate Configurations==
 
==Alternate Configurations==
*;Alternate Configuration A : Based closely on the A configuration of the ''Loki'' it carries a set of two [[Extended Range Large Laser|ER Large Laser]]s and an [[Ultra Autocannon/5|Ultra AC/5]] that serve as primary weapons. These are supported by an [[LRM-20]] rack, it also carries a [[Narc Missile Beacon]] to increase missile accuracy. At close ranges, the 'Mech can defend itself with an [[Extended Range Medium Laser|ER Medium Laser]] and also has two [[Machine Gun]]s while dropping two heat sinks. BV (1.0) = 1,879

==Notes==
The ''Hades'' was created by MechForce UK and as such is an official 'Mech; however, as it stands, it does not meet the requirements to be classified as [[canon]]. It was one of the MFUK BattleMechs that had its own miniature produced under license.
