The Warhammer is a heavily armed and moderately armored Inner Sphere Heavy Mech, possessing modest speed and maneuverability. Able to dish it out and take it in, the Warhammer is a powerful force on the battlefield, capable of shredding Light Mechs and Vehicles, as well as standing toe to toe against other Heavies.
Warhammer's large spotlight can be turned on with the [L] key. It functions differently than the standard Mech spotlights, as it has a much longer range. When fighting Battle Armor in the Warhammer, players can turn on the spotlight to discern the battlearmor from the surroundings. The Mech also has a narrow vertical field of view, which may make it hard to deal with Aerospace fighters and VTOLs.

Roles and Gameplay Hints
Prime
Inexpensive twist fighter and tanker. Good at pushing and holding objectives.
Variant A
Fire-support asset. Prone to staring, dependent on allies to tank and distract enemies at medium-range, dependent on screen shake when staring in close-combat.
Variant B
Good at suppressing snipers in open terrain. Can lead a push onto an objective if needed.
Variant C
Somewhat stealthy, good at pushing and holding objectives. Offers better Screen Shaking, anti-LRM and scouting support capabilities, and battlefield awareness than similar brawlers.
Variant D
Excellent generalist. Good at both brawling and skirmishing.
Variant E
Operates best as a skirmisher. Burst damage-focused with damage spreading capabilities. Good at targeting individual components like arms.
Variant F
Terrifying brawler, highly effective at overheating or distracting enemies and eliminating BA.
Variant G
Dedicated sniper. Poor performance at close-range. Good choice for wide open maps.
Canon
The Warhammer BattleMech was introduced by StarCorps Industries in 2515 to be "a mobile 'Mech with enough firepower to destroy or severely damage any 'Mech of the same weight class or lower." In the mission it was designed for, the Warhammer proved to be a very capable 'Mech, and for centuries practically defined the entire class of heavy 'Mechs. Boasting incredible firepower and respectable armoring, the Warhammer served prominently in the Star League Defense Force and was one of the premier 'Mechs in the Gunslinger Program. Indeed, many of the greatest MechWarriors in history were Warhammer pilots. Being more lightly armored then other mechs of its class, the Warhammer preferred to stay at range where its weaponry was most effective. In addition to PPCs, SRMs, and Lasers, it had two machine guns for defense against infantry. Date Introduced 2515 during the Era known as "Age of War" (2005 - 2570) - Unit Role: Brawler
Amongst BT fans, the Warhammer, along with other Mechs designed for the Macross Anime series, is referred as the Unseen. Another Unseen Mech (which was originally planned to appear in MWLL) is the Marauder.
