================================================================================================
Overview:
When Word of Blake ROM agents arrived on Terra with the plans for ComStar's new improved C3
computer (C3i), Precentor Martial St. Jamais deemed getting the new technology into service
a high priority. Word of Blake scientists had soon mastered production of the sophisticated
targeting and tracking system; all that was lacking was a platform to carry it. Though
several Star League-era designs were upgraded and refitted with the C3i, the Precentor
Martial chose to develop a brand new design around it as well. He commissioned Militia
designers to create a new assault 'Mech based on the aging King Crab but meant to showcase
the C3i's capabilities. He then began searching for a suitable company to produce the new
design.
Skobel MechWorks was the company for which he had been searching. A Terra-based company
that had produced the original BattleMech, the Mackie, Skobel was now turning out their
Nexus design for the Militia. The Precentor Martial ordered one of Skobel's ancient
factories reopened, one long mothballed and thought destroyed. From the very assembly lines
that had once produced the Mackie, stepped its descendent: the Vanquisher.
Capabilities:
Though based on the King Crab, the Vanquisher bears only a small resemblance to its
predecessor, despite its legs and hunched-over torso. This mammoth 'Mech utilizes long-range
weapons to bring down its foe, using targeting information gathered from its faster
companions to make a pinpoint assault. The light Gauss rifles and ER large lasers are the
Vanquisher's main weapons, though its three ER medium lasers boast impressive ranges as well
and can be quite dangerous in their own right.
The Vanquisher is slow, but it boasts an incredible amount of protection. Not only
does it bear almost twenty tons of standard armor, it lacks a dangerous extra-light engine.
It is also equipped with CASE in both side torsos to protect against light Gauss rifle
explosions. The new design meets its specifications admirably, and is sure to be the basis
on which any Militia C3i network is built.
Deployment:
The Vanquisher and various C3i-refitted 'Mechs have been distributed together to every
division of the Word of Blake Militia, where they have proven quite popular.
Perhaps the most spectacular success of the Vanquisher was on the world of Epsilon
Eridani in late 3066, when raiders attacked the defending Quality of Mercy III.
Demi-Precentor (Adept XII) Masayuki Hoshi used a Level II-two Vanquishers and four
Hussars-to hold off an entire company. Though the attackers announced themselves as a new
pirate band-the Devil's Brigade-Duke Benton of Eridani immediately denounced the Terra
Confederation for their blatant expansionism. Demi-Precentor Hoshi, however, apparently
stated that he felt it had been a masquerading unit from the Com Guards' Eleventh Division,
attempting to exact revenge for their removal from Caph.
Variants
A newly-produced version of the Vanquisher replaces the light Gauss rifles, ER large
lasers, and four heat sinks with four Ultra AC/5s and six tons of ammunition. Roughly one
out of every six Vanquishers is an Ultra AC variant.
