Overview:
    First seen in Echo Company of Hansens Roughriders in the opening phase of Operation
    Götterdämmerung is this customized Variant of the venerable Vulcan a real Terror for light
    Mechs and the Bane of Infantry in all its shapes and forms.
    
    After the Battle of Icar, in which this Vulcan was hit by a devastating salvoe from a
    Kuritan Hunchback the techs of Hansens Roughriders had to think out of the box for the
    reconstruction of this Wreck.

Capabilities:
    A quartet of 4 Mauser 12,5 mm Machine Guns in its left arm "Vierling" coupling and a
    Flametech Zippo Flamer in its right one are the bane of every infantry formation it can
    encounter.
    
    For defense against enemy Mechs the Vulcan has a Defiance B3M Medium Laser in its right
    Torso and a SRM6 with a total of 90 Harpoon Missiles in its left.
    11 Ryan "Blue" Heat sinks will hold this chassis cool, even in tight engagements.
    
    A total of 6 tons of armor instead of the regular 5 tons, its narrow profile and it´s
    maneuverability (Top Speed of 97.6 Km/h and a jump range of 180 Metres) increases the always
    high confidence of its Mechpilot to get out of a firefight with other Battlemechs in style.
    Or at least without any serious injuries to.
    
    Sadly, even the techs of the Roughriders couldn´t attach hands to the arms. A feature every
    Vulcan Pilot that ever was always complained about. "I can´t even scratch the back of the
    scarecrow, nonetheless grab a tincan to throw it"

Deployment:
    This special Variant was first seen in the ranks of the mercenary regiment of Hansen´s
    Roughriders and in the Regiments of the Lyran Regulars on the draconian border.

Notable MechWarriors:
    Corporal Richard "Digger" Digweed pilots his VLC-2S for the 4. Lyranisches Heer
    "Tropenblitz" (4th Lyran Regulars) in one of their light lances. Thanks to its deadly array
    of anti-infantry weapons his Vulcan called "
