Atlas IIC
« on: 13 May 2018, 02:11:57 »
I was messing around, using a mix of the Atlas D and K as the basis for this build, and it really came out with a monster. I mostly replaced the guns on one-to-one basis, except for the battery of ER Medium lasers I slapped onto to fill the extra tonnage. It stays heat neutral while firing the 2 ERPPCs, Gauss, and LRM with Artemis at long range, and the Gauss, 6 ER Mediums, and SSRM at close range. It also carries an ECM suite for personal protection.

Interesting question.  Personally, if it is an IS mech, then keeping with the original aesthetics (with hands)is important.  Since this is a IIC version, the utilitarian capabilities of hands are moot.   Visually altering the profile to show the arm ending with the barrel of a Gauss / PPC / large bore AC would just add to the intimidation aspect.  Mt $0.02
If at first you don't succeed, make it worth the repairman's time!

Interesting take. As a general rule do clan mechs not have hands?

Only an issue with ommis as they need to remove the hands / lower arms for cannons and PPCs.

Since it's a IIC, and the original unit has hands, I'd say keep the hands.

Question for the OP:

Could I maybe "hijack" this thread to post my own "Atlas IIC"? I don't want to waste forum space with another thread with basically the same name, but it would be really rude to just post them without asking first.  :(

It seems a waste to make a new thread, but, take as one will. This version is vastly more heat efficient, but perhaps not as threatening as the OP variant.

I'll throw this one in as well. It's designed to be similar to the original Atlas(an AC/20, two launchers, and 4 MLs), but with a heavier emphasis on urban operations. Jump jets have been added, and the weapon mix is mostly superior to the original Atlas in close-range operations - beyond maybe 12-15 hexes, it's basically equal to the 3025 model.

I had a similar idea to the original style of Atlas, just turning it into even more of a close-quarters beatstick, minus jump jets.

Code: [Select]
Atlas IIC (Standard)

Mass: 100 tons
Tech Base: Clan
Chassis Config: Biped
Rules Level: Tournament Legal
Era: Clan Invasion
Tech Rating/Era Availability: F/X-X-C-A
Production Year: 3052
Cost: 10,932,000 C-Bills
Battle Value: 2,808

Chassis: Unknown Standard
Power Plant: Unknown 300 Fusion Engine
Walking Speed: 32.4 km/h
Maximum Speed: 54.0 km/h
Jump Jets: None
    Jump Capacity: 0 meters
Armor: Unknown Ferro-Fibrous
Armament:
    1  Ultra AC/20
    6  Medium Pulse Lasers
    2  LRM-10s
    2  Streak SRM-4s
Manufacturer: Unknown
    Primary Factory: Unknown
Communications System: Unknown
Targeting and Tracking System: Unknown

Overview:
The Atlas IIC was commissioned by Clan Wolf after the successful usage of the
Kodiak Battlemech by Clan Ghost Bear. While not as prestigous as the Orion IIC,
the Atlas IIC was one of the few non-omnimech assault battlemechs to be used by
frontline Galaxies.


Capabilities:
There are few things to be said about the standard model of Atlas IIC other
than 'Not flashy'. As far as Clan mechs go, the Atlas IIC is content to be a
cheap, durable machine, built around cost and material effeciency as well as
firepower and combat ability. To that end, the Atlas IIC uses components nearly
identical to the original model of Atlas AS7-D, with similar dimensions for
easy machining, with a quick refit allowing the 300 Vlar Engine of salvaged
Atlas AS7-Ds to fit and function inside the Atlas IIC. Sixteen tons of
Ferro-Fibrous armor plate the machine, protecting it from all but the most
grevious of conventional mech attacks.


Weapons-wise, the Atlas IIC relies just as heavily upon getting close and
dealing damage as the older 7-D model. An Ultra Autocannon 20 resides in the
right underslung torso, with three tons of ammo providing 15 salvos of fire.
Two Streak SRM-4s in two side-by-side underslung boxes reside in the left
torso, fed by one ton of ammo, and a sextet of Medium Pulse Lasers-two in the
center torso and two per arm-provide deadly accurate fire to any foolhardy
light mechs wanting to backstab the machine. Finally, a pair of LRM-10s mounted
in an upper shoulder rack on the left side provide long-range fire for when the
mech is closing in.


Variants:
The only two known variants of the Atlas IIC consist of the Atlas IIC 2, which
mounts ECM, ER PPCs, LRMs, and a Gauss Rifle in order to devastate distant
foes, and an ATM-utilizing model primarily used by members of Clan Wolf Keshik
units. In the wake of the Clan Wolf Schism, the ATM model ended up being
heavily adopted by Clan Wolf-In-Exile.

reven had an atlas IIC a while back that had really logical fluff, actually. Not great, but you wouldn't want to get in close

Well if anybody throws his Atlas in the mix then I will do the same.
I think a 3/5 doesn't fell correct (the DireWolf as 90t 4/6 beast might have been the better choice) however what if the Clans take the Atlas II as framework - at least their dad drove one, doesn't he?

at the base the same weapons (with some upgrades) as the AS7-D but based on a clan chassis and much faster

Nicholas did, yeah. Aleksandr rode an Orion(hence Clan Wolf's obsession with the Orion IIC).
