My FWL Warhammer dispenses with the traditional weapons to mount large lasers, and Multiple LRM 5s, both weapons the FWL Favors.  the 6Rf also shares the 6Rk's speed.
Warhammer WHM-6Rf

Mass: 70 tons
Tech Base: Inner Sphere
Chassis Config: Biped
Rules Level: Tournament Legal
Era: Age of War/Star League
Tech Rating/Era Availability: E/E-F-E
Production Year: 2515
Cost: 15,757,867 C-Bills
Battle Value: 1,580

Chassis: StarCorps 100 Standard
Power Plant: VOX 350 Fusion XL Engine
Walking Speed: 54.0 km/h
Maximum Speed: 86.4 km/h
Jump Jets: None
    Jump Capacity: 0 meters
Armor: Leviathon Plus Ferro-Fibrous
Armament:
    2  ER Large Lasers
    1  SRM-6
    4  LRM-5s
Manufacturer: StarCorps Industries, Olivetti Weaponry, Vandenberg Mechanized Industries, Taurus Territorial Industries
    Primary Factory: Emris IV (StarCorps), Sudeten (Olivetti), Pinard (VMI), Taurus (TTI)
Communications System: O/P 3000 COMSET
Targeting and Tracking System: O/P 1500 ARB

Deployment:
First deployed in 2515, the Warhammer has served
admirably in every major action in the Inner Sphere and
beyond, from the liberation of Terra from Stefan Amaris to
the bloody fi elds of Marduk in 3039. Every Successor State
military makes use of the design, and it is held in high regard
by mercenaries and Periphery nations.
The Warhammer is produced in several factories, most
notably in the Free Worlds League and Lyran Commonwealth.
Surprisingly, two small facilities exist in the Taurian
Concordat, slowly bringing new ’Mechs to that faraway
Periphery nation. No manufacturer has ever scaled back
production of this ’Mech, as demand has always increased
with each new battle report.

I am assuming the Steiner varient will have two Alamo launchers?

House Davion knew the Warhammer was designed to take out other mechs, after all they designed the Hammerhands (and many conisder the older platform superior)
AFFS Planners saw the threat of the SLDFs single platform companies particularly when under threat of fire support companies of archers, longbows, and whitworths. so dropping the machine guns in favor of Anti Missile Systems and maximizing armor made sense to AFFS Planners.

Some very nice & useable Warhammer variants I certainly like these  , what page of Era Report 3062 is the Kurita export variant on ?, I must check this out, I have the pdf & print copy & I cannot belive I overlooked this variant  .

Thanks.

for the record I meant era report 2750, I had all three extant era reports open on my computer when I was doing this and 3062 was on the top of the stack at the time.  my apologies.

Always!

I was surprised your Davion version didn't go more Hammerhands like using AC/10s, an XL engine and EndoSteel to maintain the 4/6 speed with a cooler arsenal that reduces the amount of heat sinks needed. A full crossover of both Mechs. How is this? No jump jets from the Hammerhands but I managed to pack on everything else including max armor and anti missile systems.

The line that u used in the Davion Warhammer fluff was the inspiration. Im sure the AFFS does consider the Hammerhands better so why not combine the old and the new.
