Roles and Gameplay Hints

Prime

Starter Asset

Skirmisher. MASC allows for effective backcapping and can help with repositioning to avoid the ATM's minimum range.

Player Comments:
Be careful. It's easy to overheat. Don't try to use MASC and weapons at the same time.
- Warlord Kentax


Variant A

Starter Asset

Another generalist, Clan LRMs allow for engagements of many different ranges. Can switch to being fire-support.

Player Comments:
Use iJJs to find a good perch when acting as fire-support.
- Warlord Kentax


Variant B

Starter Asset

Excellent brawler and backcapper. Similar to the Solitaire C, but trades the Solitaire C's extra speed for iJJs and more firepower.

Variant C

Starter Asset

Brawler with plenty of medium range skirmishing ability.

Player Comments:
Chain fire Clan SSRMs to improve heat management or to spread out screen shake. Can operate for a long time without ammo resupply.
- Warlord Kentax


Variant D

Variant E

Variant F

Starter Asset

Generalist capable of poking. Runs out of ammo quickly.

Variant G

Canon

The Hellion is the direct result of Clan Ice Hellion’s philosophy of swift warfare. Using a heavier version of the Mist Lynx chassis, the Ice Hellions have created an effective blend of speed, armor and firepower. A fast and capable fighter, the Hellion can enter a battlefield, approach and strike a target before being touched. The Hellion was designed to balance speed and firepower on the battlefield. Though slower than heavier models such as the Ice Ferret and Viper, it supports more pod space than either of them. The ’Mech can also outpace lighter models that can mount a larger weapons array, especially when its myomer acceleration signal circuitry (MASC) is engaged. With both long- and short-range punch, the primary configuration can hold its own on any ground. The four medium lasers and trio of Streak 2-packs also make it a potent headhunter’ Mech.
