−	With a noticeable lack of [[OmniMech]]s designed in the [[Federated Suns]], [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns#Ranks|Field Marshal]] Duke [[George Hasek II|George Hasek]] went over the heads of the [[AFFS#Department of the Quartermaster|Department of the Quartermaster]] and commissioned [[Kallon Industries]] to design an assault OmniMech and backed the project with his own considerable financial resources. The resulting 'Mech is a force to be reckoned with on the modern battlefield. The '''''Templar''''' is built on a lightweight [[Kallon Type XIX]] [[Endo Steel]] chassis and is powered by a [[KalTek 340]] [[XL engine]] that gives the 'Mech a top speed of 64.8 km/h without sacrificing pod space. The ''Templar'' has thirteen fixed [[double heat sink]]s and is armored with sixteen and a half tons of [[Starshield A]] armor with [[CASE]] fixed in the right torso. Overall, this allows the ''Templar'' to have forty tons of free [[OmniPod]] space for weapons and equipment which the 'Mech uses effectively in its various configurations.	+	With a noticeable lack of [[OmniMech]]s designed in the [[Federated Suns]], [[Armed Forces of the Federated Suns#Ranks|Field Marshal]] Duke [[George Hasek II|George Hasek]] went over the heads of the [[AFFS#Department_of_the_Quartermaster|Department of the Quartermaster]] and commissioned [[Kallon Industries]] to design an assault OmniMech and backed the project with his own financial resources.

−	The primary configuration of the ''Templar'' is intended to be able to engage an enemy effectively at any range. For effective long range hitting power, the ''Templar'' carries a powerful [[Gauss rifle]]. If the ''Templar'' does close with an enemy, it can bring its highly accurate [[Large Pulse Laser]], [[Medium Pulse Laser]], and two [[ER Medium Laser]]s to bear on a target. For increased accuracy, the Gauss rifle and all the lasers are linked to an advanced [[Targeting Computer]]. The ''Templar'' Prime has a [[Streak SRM-4]] launcher for seeking weak points in an enemy's armor.	+	The primary configuration of the ''Templar'' is intended to be able to engage an enemy effectively at any range.

The '''''Templar''''' is built on a lightweight Kallon Type XIX [[Endo Steel]] chassis and is powered by a KalTek 340 [[XL engine]] that gives the 'Mech a top speed of 64.8 km/h while sacrificing durability. The ''Templar'' has thirteen fixed [[double heat sink]]s and is armored with sixteen and a half tons of Starshield A armor with [[CASE]] fixed in the right torso. Overall, this allows the ''Templar'' to have forty tons of free pod space for weapons and equipment which the 'Mech uses effectively in its various configurations. ==Weapons and Equipment== The primary configuration of the ''Templar'' is intended to be able to engage an enemy effectively at any range. For effective long range hitting power, the ''Templar'' carries a powerful [[Gauss Rifle]]. If the ''Templar'' does close with an enemy, it can bring its highly accurate [[Large Pulse Laser]], [[Medium Pulse Laser]], and two [[ER Medium Laser]]s to bear on a target. For increased accuracy, the Gauss Rifle and all the lasers are linked to an advanced [[Targeting Computer]]. The ''Templar'' Prime has a [[Streak SRM-4]] launcher for seeking weak points in an enemy's armor. ==Alternate Configurations== *;Alt. Config. A : Intended for long range combat, the ''Templar'' A is configured to engage an enemy at long ranges. To do this, it carries an [[ER PPC]] as its primary weapon backed up by an [[Ultra Autocannon/10]] which can fire at twice the rate of a standard autocannon. Both of these are linked to an advanced [[Targeting Computer]] for increased accuracy. For close combat, the ''Templar'' A has a [[Streak SRM-6]] launcher and for increased mobility this configuration has four [[jump jet]]s, letting it jump up to one hundred and twenty meters. To protect the 'Mech from enemy electronic warfare systems, the 'Mech has a Guardian [[ECM Suite]] and to handle the 'Mech's heavy heat load, it has an additional double heat sink. BV (1.0) = 2,047 BV (2.0) = 2,070<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 157</ref> *;Alt. Config. B : A workhorse configuration, the ''Templar B'' can engage an enemy at either short or long ranges. For long range combat, the ''Templar B'' carries an ER PPC. For intermediate ranges, the 'Mech has three [[Rotary Autocannon/2]]s and also has two [[ER Medium Laser]]s for close combat. To handle the 'Mech's heat load, the ''Templar B'' has four additional double heat sinks. BV (1.0) = 1,451 BV (2.0) = 1,806<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 158</ref> *;Alt. Config. C : A close combat configuration, the C configuration of the ''Templar'' carries a devastating [[LB-X Autocannon/20]] as its primary weapon, which can fire both solid rounds and shotgun-like cluster rounds. Also for close range, the ''Templar'' C has five [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s and an [[ER Medium Laser]], which can be used to devastating effect at short range. For long range defense, the ''Templar'' carries a single [[ER PPC]]. To add mobility to the 'Mech, it has four pod-mounted jump jets that let the ''Templar'' C jump up to one hundred and twenty meters. An additional heat sink is added to help handle the 'Mech's heat. BV (1.0) = 1,726 BV (2.0) = 2,063<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 159</ref> *;Alt. Config. D : This configuration carries a pair of [[Light Gauss Rifle]]s in the torso and a [[Large X-Pulse Laser]] in each arm. BV (2.0) = 1,840<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 160</ref> *;Alt. Config. E : A commander's configuration, this variation carries a [[C3 Master Computer]] to coordinate fire. To protect itself from hostile electronic systems, it carries a [[Guardian ECM Suite]]. Offensively it carries a pair of [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s, twin [[Artemis IV]]-enhanced [[LRM-15]]s, and an [[ER PPC]]. A [[Small Laser]] has also been included. BV (2.0) = 1,865<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 161</ref> *;Alt. Config. F : Another command variation, this configuration mounts a C3 Master computer. It carries three Medium Pulse Lasers, a [[Heavy PPC]], and a Light Gauss Rifle. Four jump jets give it a 120 meter jump range. BV (2.0) = 2,029<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 162</ref> *;Alt. Config. G : Apparently intended for long range direct fire support or anti-aircraft work, this configuration carries three [[LB 2-X]] autocannons, an ER PPC, and a Light Gauss Rifle. It can share targeting data with lancemates via a [[C3 Slave]] unit. BV (2.0) = 1,632<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 163</ref> *;Alt. Config. H : This variation carries an [[MRM-30]] with [[Apollo FCS]] in each arm. These are supported by a pair of [[Light PPC]]s. An [[ER Flamer]] provides anti-infantry support, and a [[Targeting Computer]] enhances the accuracy of the energy weapons. A C3 Slave unit allows the ''Templar'' to share targeting data with lancemates, and additional mobility is provided via four jump jets. BV (2.0) = 1,958<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 164</ref> *;Alt. Config. I : This configuration carries a C3 Slave unit, fifteen double heat sinks, two Heavy PPCs, and a Gauss Rifle. BV (2.0) = 2,202<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 165</ref> *;Alt. Config. R : This [[Dark Age era]] configuration carries a [[Clan]]-spec ER PPC and LB 10-X autocannon. These are supported by four [[Medium Re-engineered Laser]]s. BV (2.0) = 2,393<ref>''Record Sheets: 3145 New Tech, New Upgrades'', p. 173</ref> *;Alt. Config. U : This variant was designed for underwater operations. In addition to four [[UMU]]s it is also equipped with a [[BattleMech HarJel System]] to prevent hull breaches. Three [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s and a [[Large Pulse Laser]] provide energy weapon support. An [[SRT-6]] and [[LRT-10]] torpedo launcher increase the odds of breaching an enemy unit's armor. A C3 Slave allows the ''Templar U'' to share targeting data with friendly units. BV (2.0) = 1,747<ref>''Record Sheets: 3085 Unabridged — Old is the New New'', p. 113</ref> ==Non-Standard Configurations== *;Grayson : This configuration was invented by [[Lieutenant-Colonel]] [[Grayson Addison]] from the [[8th Syrtis Fusiliers]]. The Grayson configuration is armed with two [[Autocannon/5]]s for long range combat and has four [[ER Medium Laser]]s for close combat. The autocannons and lasers are all linked to a Targeting Computer for increased accuracy. To seek out weak points in an enemy's armor, the Grayson configuration has two [[Streak SRM-4]] launchers. In order to handle its heat load more easily, this configuration has an additional double heat sink and also has three jump jets, which allow it to jump up to ninety meters. BV (1.0) = 1,670{{cn}}BV (2.0) = 1,868<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 166</ref> *;Tancred : Configured for [[Tancred Sandoval]], this configuration carries two [[Rotary Autocannon/5]]s that can fire at a rate six times as fast as a standard autocannon. These are backed up by three [[ER Medium Laser]]s for close combat. For long range engagements, the Tancred configuration has a single [[ER Large Laser]]. All of these weapons are linked to a [[Targeting Computer]], giving them increased accuracy. BV (1.0) = 1,708{{cn}}BV (2.0) = 2,273<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 167</ref> *;TLR1-OBLO : A custom configuration used by the [[Blessed Order]]'s revived [[1st Division (ComStar)|First Division]]'s [[Unending Faith III]], the ''Templar'' OBLO is based off the ''Templar'' Prime, its combat effectiveness enhanced by the removal the Streak SRM-4 launcher and its attendant ammo for an [[Improved C3 Computer]]. BV (2.0) = 2,062<ref name=SoUF-20>''Spotlight On: Unending Faith'', p. 20 "Templar TLR1-OBLO"</ref> ==Notable Pilots== * During the [[FedCom Civil War]], both [[Ardan Sortek]] and [[Tancred Sandoval]] piloted ''Templars'' during the final months of the conflict. A final push by pro-Katherine forces led to Sortek's death, making the ''Templar'' his last 'Mech. * [[Grayson Addison]]: Leftenant colonel and commander of the Eighth Syrtis Fusiliers, piloted a Templar during the battle of New Syrtis, during the FedCom Civil War. *[[Julian Davion]],The [[Prince's Champion]] and later [[First Prince of the Federated Suns]] piloted a Templar during the fighting on Terra, and later, on Ronel.{{cn}} * [[Lady Synd]]: Knight of the Sphere in 3136, piloted a Templar during the Fidelis assault on Ryde, losing it to inmobilize a Falcon Jade Mech. ==Related Designs== * ''[[Templar III]]'' - New version of the ''Templar'', which serves as its replacement due to Kallon's factories on Talon, moon of [[Wernke]], being destroyed during the [[Jihad]]. * ''[[Pendragon]]'' - Experimental and later an [[Technology Rating|Advanced Technology]] limited-production BattleMech loosely based on the original ''Templar''.<ref>''Experimental Technical Readout: Davion'', p. 7 Pendragon - ''Pendragon'' article notes being loosely based on the original ''Templar''.</ref><ref>''Technical Readout: Prototypes'', p. 138 Pendragon - ''Pendragon'' enters limited production at General Motors plant on New Valencia.</ref> =='Mech Gallery== <gallery> File:Templar_test_OFS.jpg|TLR1-O ''Templar'' undergoing live-fire testing File:Templar_FMFS.jpg|TLR1-O ''Templar'' on patrol File:Templar ic.jpg|TLR1-O ''Templar'' fighting on [[New Syrtis]] during the FedCom Civil War Image:MW4-M Templar.png|[[MechWarrior 4: Mercenaries]] version of the ''Templar'' </gallery> ==References== <references/> ==Bibliography== *''[[Field Manual: Federated Suns]]'' *''[[Master Unit List]]'' *''[[Record Sheets: 3067]]'' *''[[Record Sheets: 3085 Unabridged — Old is the New New]]'' *''[[Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged]]'' *''[[Record Sheets: 3145 New Tech, New Upgrades]]'' *''[[Spotlight On: Unending Faith]]'' *''[[Technical Readout: 3067]]'' [[Category:BattleMechs]] [[Category:OmniMechs]] [[Category:Assault BattleMechs]] [[Category:85 ton BattleMechs]] [[Category:Inner Sphere OmniMechs]] [[Category:Federated Suns BattleMechs]] [[Category:MechWarrior 4 BattleMechs]]
