Highlander HGN-733P is a Assault-class 'Mech in Battletech.
Description
The Highlander 732B is an ancient model from the Star League days! Its Gauss Rifle was a terrifying weapon that gave it a huge punch at almost any range but you can't find those anymore. And of course, it still has the jump capability it's always been known for.
Loadouts
- The Royal Highlander has 5 additional free tons over the 'normal' version, giving it a payload equal to an Atlas.
- If you don't want to risk your valuable Gauss Rifle, the SRM can be replaced with an LRM-5, useful for triggering knockdowns without risking CT destruction or when using multi-shot. The remaining mass can go into armor.
Strategy
- You procure the 732B during Raising the Dead, as part of a stash of Star League relics. As per the trope, this museum piece is actually extremely deadly.
