 ===Variant E - ''"Huginn"''===
 {{Starter}}
-The '''''"Echo"''''' was the most common Raven variant in MWLL 0.4.x mostly due to its formerly low price. It's surprisingly adept at dealing heavy, sustained damage, even late-game. The E variant has [[GECM]], [[C3]], a pair of [[MPL | Medium Pulse Lasers]], and a single heavy-hitting [[MRM20|Medium Range Missile 20-Pack]] with 1 [[Free tons | Free ton]] of ammo to feed it. The [[MPL]]'s fast fire rate, incredibly easy fire control, combined with the Raven's 360° degree torso rotation, make this variant at least somewhat decent against fast targets. One [[Flamer]] is attached for those close encounters. Where the E really excels is against slow moving, large targets like tanks, heavy mechs, and assault mechs. The E is the secont most armored, but is still a scout mech, and as such should not engage alone. Additionally, all of its weapons are mounted in its arms, so pilots should take care to protect them.

 ===Variant B===
 {{Starter}}
-The B variant dramatically changes the Raven's role, packing different gear and weapons to turn this scout into a support-brawler. The standard [[GECM]] is still in place, however it is now complimented by a single [[LAMS|Laser Anti Missile System]] & [[BAP|Beagle Active Probe]] making the B a less capable scout mech compared to the Prime, but an excellent choice as a support asset that stays close to its allies thanks to its 7t of [[armor]], making it one of 2 most armored Ravens. It still carries [[C3]] to relay its radar information to allies. Weapons-wise the B variant takes on a more hard-hitting loadout; three [[SPL|Small Pulse Lasers]] and one [[LBX10|Lubalin Ballistics-X AC10]]. The LBX10 offers some limited [[AA|Anti-Air]] capabilites, but is best used in ground-based operations, supporting allies and exploiting holes in enemy armor. Due to this variant's focus on short- and medium-range firepower,it lacks [[MASC]], therefore pilots must be wary of their surroundings and avoid being left behind should their team be forced to retreat or fall back.
+One of the most popular [[starter]]s. A fairly good [[brawler]], a great [[tank hunter]], and a great [[scout]].

 ===Variant D - ''"Muninn"''===
-The Raven D sits comfortably as a jack of all trades variant. It can fulfill the role of a scout with its generous electronics equipment [[BHP]], [[C3]], [[GECM]], and [[EOptics]]. Its [[ERLL|Extended Range Large Laser]] and [[ERML|Extended Range Medium Laser]] gives it longer range direct fire weapons than the Prime variant. It also mounts a [[NARC]] launcher, albeit the standard shorter range version, so Mechwarriors deploying it would have to close within 500m of their targets. As the D carries Zero additional [[HS]]'s, Mechwarriors are encouraged to use fire dispend for this reason. Finally, this variant carries a single [[AC5]] & one [[Free tons|Free Ton of Ammo]] which is effective against Vehicles and Air units.
