Shortly afterRenault-Prime had built their first prototype Omega, Stefan Amaris succeededin his conquest of the Terran Hegemony. Amaris then ordered the Omega projectmoved to Terra so that his scientists could monitor its testing. After theReunification War was over, not trace of the Omega could be found. It isbelieved that when General Kerensky's forces liberated Terra, they took theprototype Omega with them on the Exodus.==Capabilities:== The Omega was designed along the same lines as the Flashman. Inessence a mobile laser battery, the Omega can lay down a withering barrage oflaser fire that can incinerate most 'Mechs in a matter of seconds. The 18HilTec double-strength heat sinks keep the heat potential down to a minimum aslong as the weapon fire is staggered. Unfortunately, most of the test pilotsinvolved in the project had a tendency to fire all the weapons involved. Theaddition of jumpjets was added as an afterthought. News from the front of theReunification War had show instances where lack of mobility had doomed many anassault because the 'Mechs could not support the rest of their company. Theaddition of jumpjets was hoped to alleviate some of the SLDF's concerns. ThePitban engine was a trusted design and was considered worth the cost involved.Combined with 19 tons of Kemplar X9000 armor made the 'Mech particularlydifficult to take down. Its Faust/Shinji targeting system provided accuratebut somewhat spotty performance, a factor that wasn't improved until theproject was moved to Terra.==Deployment== Due to the Reunification War, none were produced.--------------------------------------------------------Type/Model: Omega 137AMass: 100 tonsEquipment: Crits MassInt.
