 ===Variant A - ''"Acht-Acht"''===
-The Hollander II A mounts a single [[HGauss]] as its main weapon, and supports this with 4 [[SL]]s and a [[MASC]] system.  This gives the A variant absolutely fearsome firepower at close to medium range, and allows it to close at unexpectedly quick speeds.  This is balanced by the A's low ammo, the long [[refire rate]] of its HGauss, and the lack of any extra [[heat sink|heat sinks]] to support the MASC system.  Extra care must be given to protecting the HGauss, as that is this variant's primary means of defending itself. This variant is extremely susceptible to spontaneously exploding when the Gauss Rifle is destroyed, due to overloading causing additional damage to neighbor sections. The A also is the only Hollander that does not have jump jets which gives it far less mobility than its cousins.

 The B variant is a pure brawler. Its massive [[UAC20]] is capable of dealing heavy damage to targets 350m or closer, followed 2 [[SL|Small Lasers]] while its 2 [[Flamer|Flamers]] are effective out to 150m. The B variant is best used as a brawler, quickly jumping into battle with its [[iJJ|Improved Jump Jets]], and dealing high DPS with the UAC20 supported by its Small Lasers. An extra 2 free tons allows it to remain in combat for a long time. Alas only having 2 [[DHS|Double Heat Sinks]] causes mechwarriors to struggle with the B's combined weapon and jump jet heat output. Equipped with only close-ranged weaponry means that at range, the Hollander II B is defenseless. Its large autocannon sitting on its right shoulder is also relatively easy to hit, so Mechwarriors should try torso twisting away from enemies to distribute damage and travel with a teammate.

-Thunder Bolt Machine - Are this variants main punch. The odd [[Thunderbolt]] are a product of the Solaris VII arena circus - they are useful at any range - from Zero to 750 meters Lock On or dumb fired out to 2000m. This comes at a cost - they are less maneuverable than other missiles, and move slower too.
+The cheapest Hollander, and the cheapest [[AC20]] asset. An [[SRM6]] and twin [[SXPL|SXPLs]] complement the close-range loadout, with all weapons having a max range of 350m. The Conscript lacks any movement equipment, and must rely on [[screenshake]] and its [[engines|Standard Engine]] to keep it alive. Having only 1 [[free ton]] leaves a tough choice: the AC20 is the more powerful weapon, but the SRM6 will run out of ammo 8 shots earlier, if both weapons are constantly fired in sync.

 ===Prime===
 The Prime variant mounts 1 [[Gauss]] as its main weapon, and supports that with 2 [[ERML]]s, giving it a respectable long-range punch. It lacks any close-range firepower to deter [[Battle Armor]] and brawling [[Light Mechs]] so a prudent Mechwarrior should try to keep his foes at long range. Care must be taken to protect both the Gauss and Cockpit, as they are both very vulnerable. However, because the Gauss is positioned on the highest point of the Mech, it allows the majority of the Mech to remain in cover when [[Gameplay Tactics#Poptarting|poptarting]] which the Prime excels at due to its [[iJJ|improved jump jets]]. Furthermore, each gauss shot can be carefully placed with pinpoint accuracy using the Prime's [[eoptics|enhanced optics]].
