Description[edit]
The Sarath is a medium quad OmniMech, first developed exclusively for the Regulan Fiefs during the early thirty-second century. Built by Ronin Inc of Wallis, the Sarath was the former Free Worlds League's second OmniMech. When it was first produced, it was considered a 'Mech of high prestige, and export of the Sarath would be barred and held exclusively for the use of the Regulan military.
However, the 'Mech gained a bad reputation due to the short-lived invasion of the Aitutaki in 3134. The 'Mech performed well, enabling the Regulans to capture the former Regulan planet, but despite a great performance the 4th Regulan Hussars' defeat and Fief's resulting loss of of the planet to the Marik-Stewart Commonwealth gave the 'Mech a bad stigma, where being assigned to the Sarath was seen as a sign of a MechWarrior falling out of favor with their peers.[4]
Weapons and Equipment[edit]
One of the 'Mech's most distinguishing traits was that it was constructed using a combination of advanced Inner Sphere and Clan technologies. The Sarath was constructed as an OmniMech, one of its distinguishing features being that 15 of its 19 tons of pod space were placed in the BattleMech turret. The 'Mech also had been designed to have enhanced movement and strength, in comparison to other similar designs. This is due, in part, to its Magna 250 XL extralight engine and use of Triple Strength Myomer in its construction. Aside from its quad turret, the 'Mech possessed only one fixed weapon, a Magna Mk. IV ER small laser mounted in its head.
The Sarath's Prime configuration features a number of weapons mounted in its turret, and allows the 'Mech to bring most of its weapons to bear on any direction. The turreted weapons include a heavy PPC, light PPC, and one of the 'Mech's two ER medium lasers. Its other ER medium laser is installed in the center torso, with the Beagle active probe. To take advantage of the 'Mech's TSM, which can be easily activated despite 10 double heat sinks, each leg actuator is fitted with spikes.[5]
Alternate Configurations[edit]
- Alternate Configuration A
- This configuration of the Sarath is configured for a fire support role. Using Clan Sea Fox as its supplier for some its weapons, the 'Mech boasts two Clan LRM-15 launchers and two MML-3 launchers found in the turret, with their ammunition stored mostly in the 'Mech's four legs. Backup weaponry is provide by the fixed ER small laser and another Clan ER small laser in the center torso. Enhanced mobility is achieved by fitting it with five jump jets. BV(2.0) = 1,738[6][7]
- Alternate Configuration B
- Designed for close assault, the Sarath B, features a single plasma rifle, two ER medium lasers, and four ER flamers fitted into its turret. For use in melee combat, four Clan produced talons are mounted, one in each of the 'Mech's feet which, when combined with the TSM, allow the Sarath B to demonstrate its physical prowess. The plasma rifle is allotted two tons of ammunition. BV(2.0) = 1,475[8][9]
Design Quirks[edit]
The Sarath is subject to the following Design Quirks:
Notes[edit]
- The Sarath was named for the assumed guise of the mystic Hindu god Krishna.
