Description
Based on the King Crab and built in the same factory that first produced the Mackie the Vanquisherhas a legendary pedigree. The Vanquisher has its genisis in the development of reverse engineered Improved C3 Computers. Once the Word of Blake had perfected their version of C3i Cameron St. Jamais contacted Skobel MechWorks and contracted them to produce a 'Mech that would showcase the features of the new C3i system. The Vanquisher was the result of tat request. In order to allow it to carry as heavy a payload as possible and not sactifixe durability the 'Mech is built on a Hollis Alteration Mark VI Endo Steel that carries a Vlar 300 fusion engine that propels the 'MEch to a top speed of 54.0 km/h. The Vanquisher is protected by nineteen and a half tons of armor with CASE in both side torsos to protect the 'Mech from going down in an ammunition explosion.
Armament
Intended to stay back and let faster units spot for it using the C3i system the Vanquisher carries as its primary weapons a pair of Corean Light Gauss Rifles backed up by two Diverse Optics Sunbeam ER Large Lasers giving the Vanquisher almost unparalleled reachont he battlefield. For close combat the 'Mech has three Diverse Optics Type ER Medium Lasers which are usually enough to disuade most lighter 'Mechs.
Variants
- VQR-2B - The 2B variant of the Vanquisher makes up roughly fifteen percent of the current production run. This variant carries four Ultra Autocannon/ss in place of the Light Gauss Rifles and ER Large Lasers. While this variant is much more reliant on ammunition based weapons the four Ultra Autocannon/5s allow the 'Mech to put more fire downrange at a somewhat shorter range envelope then the 2A variant.
