Description

The finished product of "What happens when a die-hard Battletech fan has access to WH40K models." The general idea I had behind it was it being a heavier cousin of the Warhammer and Marshal, ranging around 80 tons. Background being that after/during/whenever the heavy battles began between the Taurian Concordat and the Federated Suns post meteor-bombing, Taurus Territorial Industries figured that their much lighter Marshal [link] wasn't nearly up to snuff. So citing the lack of Assault class mechs in Taurian forces, they reinvented it while borrowing heavily from Warhammer designs.

Or some magical space fairies aborted it on some backwater planet. Whatever.

Don't ask me too much about it's armaments, I never really fleshed it out. Aside from the claw, which I've considered making it a "counts as axe," but didn't want to cheese out.

in the tactical handbook (8630), back from the 90's there was a physical weapon Claw. It was a heavily modified hand actuator, mostly used on Solaris, did double punch damage from memory. Very nasty. Applied damage on the punch table. Don't know if it's been kept in the new rule sets.

Nice kit-bash, though it makes me think more of a very nasty battle armour than a assault mech.

cheers.
