The Black Widow, named after the late Natasha Kerensky, is a 2nd-line
battlemech that was primarily based on the Linebacker, as well as acting as a
"proof of concept" design.  It is best described a part-test bed, part
frankenmech.  Due to resource limitations and changes in priority, only a few
were built, and even in the Clan Wolf-in-Exile touman, it is a rare sight.


Capabilities:
The Black Widow was built with an Endo-Steel Chassis, and protected by 10.5
tons of Ferro-Fibrous Armor.  Powered by a 360 XL Fusion Engine (usually
salvaged from irreparable Fenris and Phantom 'mechs), the 'mech can go as fast
as 97 km/h at maximum.

In terms of weaponry, each arm sports a Series 6W ER Large Laser and a Series
2b ER Medium Laser paired together, while each side torso has a Series 2b ER
Medium Laser  and a Type 1 SRM-6 launcher.  A Small Pulse Laser in the center
torso rounds out the armament, while an Active Probe helps protect against
hidden enemies.

What if the Nova Cats chose not to join the second Star League?  What's the resulting butterfly effect?  See link below:
