Warrior: A Clan Diamond Shark OmniMech for the Inner Sphere
« on: October 15, 2018, 01:13:49 AM »
"Good evening, people of the Inner Sphere," the woman on the holo-screen stated confidently.  Dressed in a dark blue and green military uniform, the woman was unfamiliar to many of the viewers . . . but the tapestry behind her bore the embleem of Clan Diamond Shark, and the crowd of MechWarriors packed into the exclusive membership of the Solaris VII nightclub ceased their conversations.

After all, they had learned of this mysterious broadcast two days prior and rumors were awash that the Sharks--Clan though they might be--were finally opening their warehouses to Warriors of the Inner Sphere fighting against the Word of Blake.

"I am Barbara Sennet, Khan of Clan Diamond Shark," the woman continued.  "Tonight, I wish to announce that my Sharks have come to a decision regarding our common enemy . . . the Word of Blake."

"For too long, Warriors--Soldiers--of the Inner Sphere have fought and bled and suffered due to a lack of modern military equipment.  But now, in the hour of our common need, Clan Diamond Shark--my Clan--will make Clan military technology available to those valiant Warriors--those brave Soldiers--across the Inner Sphere."

"In the decades since the Battle of Tukayyid, we Sharks have borne witness to the courage and the honor of the men and women of the Inner Sphere with whom we have competed.  With whom we have fought.  With whom we have earned mutual respect in the truest fashion of all . . . on the field of battle."

"Because of that respect, we can no longer stand by while the Word of Blake seeks to sow only destruction.  Accordingly, the Sharks will make available to the Inner Sphere one of our most recent designs."

She paused and smiled.  "The Warrior Multi-Mission Combat OmniMech is the product of nearly two decades of research and development.  The first prototype was fielded almost fifteen years to the day of the conclusion of the Battle of Tukayyid and it currently sees service in the Toumans of all of the Clans present within the Inner Sphere and near Periphery."

"What is the perfect BattleMech?" she asked the camera.  "Soldiers--Warriors--know well, there is no single answer to that.  But in the Warrior we Sharks believe that we have managed to capture the spirit of what may be the perfect OmniMech for the Inner Sphere."

"Massing 55 tons, the Warrior utilizes an Endo-Steel II chassis with 9.5 tons of Clan Ferro-Fibrous Armor plating.  This gives the design more than 98% of the maximum possible armor coverage for a bipedal BattleMech design of 55 tons.  Ten double-strength heat sinks are banked within the engine core, with the omni-connections for additional cooling units to be added."

"To ease maintenance requirements and improve reliability, the Warrior uses a 275-rate Standard Fusion Engine for power.  This SFE is less vulnerable to combat damage than a Light or Extra-Light Fusion Engine and is quite a bit less expensive," she added with a chuckle and a smile.

"But this engine allows the Warrior to reach a maximum speed of 86.4 kilometers per hour and maintain a walking speed of 54 kph.  All the while retaining twenty-one tons of available pod-space."

And the bar went absolutely quiet as the Khan of the Sharks spoke those words.

"Yes, friends.  Twenty-one tons of available pod-space for this design.  And we have created twenty-two seperate configurations of the Warrior based upon some of the most renowned, respected, and feared BattleMechs in use by the Inner Sphere.  All configurations feature Clan weapon systems . . . and we Sharks are making this design available to you."

"The base chassis is quite affordable, costing just 5,358,802 C-Bills.  Armed configurations will--of course--increase the price of the frame, but rest assured that the Warrior is no paper tiger."

"Our first configuration is based upon the Archer.  This version has a cost of 7,568,133 C-Bills and a Battle Value of 2,158.  Armament consists of two LRM-20 launchers, each with Artemis IV fire-control systems and fed by four tons of missiles.  This provides the design with a dozen twin salvoes of fire.  Secondary weapons include four Extended-Range Medium Lasers, mounted one each in the arms and the remaining two fitted to fire to defend the rear of this OmniMech in the center torso.  An 11th DHS has been installed as well, allowing the Warrior:  Archer to utilize all forward firing weapon systems and only generate movement heat as excess."

"Next comes the Catapult.  The first Warrior configuration to mount five jump jets, this configuration also carries twin LRM-15 launchers with Artemis IV FCS.  Four tons of ammunition provides for a total of 32 missile flights.  Secondary weapons consist of two ER Medium Lasers (in the right and left torsos) and three ER Small Lasers (right torso, center torso, and left torso).  12 DHS should prove ample under most conditions on the battle field, although it is not quite sufficient to eliminate all excess overheat production.  Cost is 7,549,630 C-Bills with a BV of 2,286."

Lol, why do I feel like I've just been to a car dealership?

Seriously though, love the Sharks but never figured out why this type of behavior (making Mechs for the enemy i.e. anyone not Clan) was tolerated?

"This configuration is based on the Dragon.  The main gun is an Ultra AC-5 Autocannon in the right arm with two tons of ammo for 40 bursts of fire, supported by an LRM-10 launcher with Artemis IV FCS mounted in the center torso.  Two tons of missile ammunition are stored in the right torso, allowing for 24 missile flights.  The left torso is equipped with a rear-firing ER Small Laser, while the left arm laser has been fully upgraded to a Large Pulse Laser!  Even with only the base 10 DHS, this design remains heat-neutral on a running Alpha Strike . . . firing both forward and rear mounted weaponry!  Cost is 6,702,265 C-Bills with a BV of 1,690."

"Also featuring five jump jets, our next entry is based on the Grasshopper.  The primary ranged weapon is a center torso mounted ER Large Laser, with a head mounted LRM-5 for support.  While we include a ton of ammunition for 24 missile flights, there was insufficient room for Artemis IV fire control systems.  Four ER Medium Lasers add to the carnage this machine can inflict at shorter ranges.  And just to prevent some honorless surat from back-stabbing the Warrior:  Grasshopper, we added a rear-firing ER Small Laser.  Eighteen DHS prove ample to cope with the majority of the heat generated by this configuration.  Cost is 7,196,618 C-Bills with a BV of 2,235."

"The Griffin is one of the most respected and sought after BattleMechs of the Inner Sphere.  So, we had to make it better.  Our Warrior:  Griffin configuration includes a Clan ER PPC as the primary weapon in the right arm, with an LRM-15 launcher in the left torso outfitted with Artemis IV fire-control and fed by three tons of ammunition for 24 missile flights.  Twelve DHS allows this configuration to "boom and zoom" freely, but that is not all, my friends!  No.  We Sharks have made this configuration ideal for the Scout leader and Scout hunter roles by incorporating an Active Probe, an ECM Suite, and a TAG system for designating artillery targets!  This did push the cost up slightly to 8,108,405 C-Bills and a BV of 2,179.  But that extra cost buys a tremendous amount of potential!"

"Even with the wonders of modern Clan technology, there is only so much that we can do with the Rifleman configuration.  Although highly effective against hostile aerospace fighters, conventional fighters, and VTOLs, the design is somewhat lacking in effective firepower versus other targets and tends to run somewhat hot, even with a dozen DHS.  Weaponry consists of two LB-2X Autocannons supported by a pair of ER Large Lasers.  These weapon systems do provide the Warrior:  Rifleman with the longest engagement range of any configuration, however.  Cost is 6,835,177 C-Bills with a BV of merely 1,677."

"The famed Thunderbolt configuration comes next.  Always a trooper, some believe that this configuration is under-sinked, with only the base ten fixed DHS.  However, when the weapon systems are used in the proper brackets, the design runs quite cool.  An Alpha Strike is not recommended in this war machine and doing so will void the warranty as well as terminate the service option package.  Energy weapons consist of one ER Large and three ER Medium Lasers.  These guns are supported by a pair of missile launchers, one long-range and one short-range.  An LRM-20 with Artemis IV FCS and three tons of ammunition for 18 missile flights is in the right torso, while a Streak SRM-4 launcher with a ton of ammunition for 25 missile flights is set in the left arm.  For anti-personnel work, a pair of AP Gauss Rifles with a ton of ammunition for 40 bursts of fire have been installed in the center torso.  Cost is 7,420,883 C-Bills with a BV of 2,160."

Barbara smiled out from the screen.  "The Warrior Multi-Mission Combat OmniMech, ladies and gentlemen.  And today, for this special broadcast in commemoration of our shared fight against the Word of Blake, we are offering a special deal.  Buy the Warrior and three Omni-configurations of your choice and you will get a fourth Omni-configuration absolutely free of charge."

"That is right, my friends.  For today only, you buy three three and get the fourth free.  Each Omni-configuration comes with all applicable weapon systems, electronics, and heat sinks and includes a full loadout of combat munitions for all ammunition based weaponry.  Instructions are provided for your technicians to maintain and install the various Omni-configurations you select . . . or, you can opt in to our Diamond Shark service and support package where we will send a team of trained Clan Technicians along with your order to provide general maintenance and assist in swapping configurations as needed."

"But, wait!  There is more!"

"The first fifty orders placed through the ComStar network will receive not just the base Warrior chassis.  Not just four Omni-configurations of your choice.  No, the first fifty orders will receive a SECOND Warrior-chassis at a 50% discounted price!  You just have to pay shipping and handling."

"Now, we cannot do this all day.  Supplies are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.  So place your orders now.  And be sure to inquire about our Diamond Shark optional service packages."

Its an ingenious marketing strategy and its amazing you can get so many Inner Sphere inspired designs on the 55 ton frame.

Only one tiny nitpick, would they really name a variant Wolverine? Id think they might rename it to something like Badger or something.

Lol, why do I feel like I've just been to a car dealership?

Seriously though, love the Sharks but never figured out why this type of behavior (making Mechs for the enemy i.e. anyone not Clan) was tolerated?

Internal Clan matter perhaps its as good excuse as any. Possibly Trialed over it but could say they won. Would it go to Grand Council, possibly.

I could have had more.  I considered one for the Trebuchet, Dervish, and JagerMech, as well as an Arrow IV version of the Catapult.  Plus, I really need one that mounts a Gauss Rifle, but just didn't find a design that really fits.  And I'm sure that there are other canon Medium and Heavy weight designs (and a few Assaults!) out there that we could fit into the pod-space of this 55-ton wonder 'Mech!

For themselves or the Clans?  No.  But since this design is meant for the Inner Sphere, I figured might as well use the name of the BattleMech IS troops are used to . . . instead of calling it the Not Named Configuration.  ;)

For a Gauss one why not use the Hunchback as a basis. Have two Hunchback variants

Barbara smiled out from the screen.  "The Warrior Multi-Mission Combat OmniMech, ladies and gentlemen.  And today, for this special broadcast in commemoration of our shared fight against the Word of Blake, we are offering a special deal.  Buy the Warrior and three Omni-configurations of your choice and you will get a fourth Omni-configuration absolutely free of charge."

"That is right, my friends.  For today only, you buy three three and get the fourth free.  Each Omni-configuration comes with all applicable weapon systems, electronics, and heat sinks and includes a full loadout of combat munitions for all ammunition based weaponry.  Instructions are provided for your technicians to maintain and install the various Omni-configurations you select . . . or, you can opt in to our Diamond Shark service and support package where we will send a team of trained Clan Technicians along with your order to provide general maintenance and assist in swapping configurations as needed."

"But, wait!  There is more!"

"The first fifty orders placed through the ComStar network will receive not just the base Warrior chassis.  Not just four Omni-configurations of your choice.  No, the first fifty orders will receive a SECOND Warrior-chassis at a 50% discounted price!  You just have to pay shipping and handling."

"Now, we cannot do this all day.  Supplies are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis.  So place your orders now.  And be sure to inquire about our Diamond Shark optional service packages."

For just 19.95! ;D

Seriously though this design could work for the Clans prior to the InnerSphere invasion. I know the Star Adders would be interested in a Mech that could imitate potential opponents in the Crusade for use in their OpFors.

For themselves or the Clans?  No.  But since this design is meant for the Inner Sphere, I figured might as well use the name of the BattleMech IS troops are used to . . . instead of calling it the Not Named Configuration.  ;)

I love this, the advert, the designs, superb.  And I can see the Shark's smile when speaking with a prospective buyer, pointing out that ammunition and vital components for equipment (lasers, comms systems etc) all have to come from them as it won't take IS equipment.  A buyer then turns themselves into a client of the Sharks as they'd have to get their ammo and tech support from them. Just visit your Local Diamond Shark Merchant and Technician Envoy now.  Our personnel are standing by!
