 ===Variant G - ''"Mickey"''===
 A long-range harassment unit, "'''''Mickey'''''" can be an infuriating enemy on open terrain with its array of accurate screen shaking weapons. A [[ERPPC]] and a trio of [[LRM5]] allow it to sand the armor off enemies at long range with assistance of [[EOptics]] and [[GECM]] keeping your radar footprint to a bare minimum. A set of quad [[MG]]s gives it some mid-range punch at 400m and reaches out to 1600m etching away armor. Strike your enemy, then reposition before they can retaliate.

 ===Variant A - ''"Howitzer"''===
 The "'''''Howitzer'''''", also known as a Thumper, is the only unit to carry a full-sized, full-ranged [[Thumper Artillery]], a direct fire artillery piece. The unit must be [[Crouch/Deploy|deployed]] with  [ '''Left Ctrl''' ]  to fire, just like the [[Long Tom Artillery|Mobile Long Tom]]. Unlike the Long Tom, the Howitzer can maneuver quickly and redeploy quickly. Mastering the Thumper takes time as it lacks the Long Tom's targeting computer, but the rapid rate of fire and nigh-infinite range allow it to repeatedly blast approaching enemies. The cannon can also be used at point blank (beware self-inflicted splash damage), though its sustained damage-per-second is fairly mediocre. Three [[free tons|Free Tons]] at 8 shells per ton provide this Rommel with sustained fire power. Equipped with [[EOptics]] and [[BHP]] aid it in its search for prey and enemy movement. Assisted by [[LAMS]], automated defense turrets that target and shoot down or thin out most enemy Missiles that stray too close.

 ==Roles and Gameplay Hints==
 ===Prime===
-Armed with the close range punch of an [[AC20]] the Rommel Prime is a brutal mid range fighter in the early game. The mobility and resilience of a 74km/h top speed and 9.5 tons of armor keep it in the fight against light and medium assets, though focused heavy fire will take it down before long. Its [[TBolt5|Thunderbolt-5]] allows it to soften up targets as they close range before opening them up with the main gun. For back up damage and anti-infantry work, a pair of [[SL]]s give the Rommel some security from being harassed by BA. 1 [[free tons|Free Ton]] allow the Prime to be less resupply reliant for the ammo hungry [[AC20]], unlike the [[TBolt5|TBolt5]] which should be used sparingly for backup. A [[LAMS]] system also takes some of the bite out of enemy missile barrages against it and allies. Rommel Prime is an excellent upgrade from a light-mech in the early game before all of the enemy are able to field heavier assets.
