Description

The Mauler is armed with four Imperator Smoothie-2 Autocannon/2s as its longest ranged primary weapons. Individually, the damage the AC/2s deal is insignificant, but together they can steadily whittle away armor at extreme range. The 'Mech also carries two Shigunga LRM-15 launchers, adding much needed punch to the extreme reach of its four autocannons. The 'Mech also carries two Victory Nickel Alloy ER Large Lasers for added long range punch.

Description

The Mauler 2K attempts to turn the assault 'Mech into a walking missile repository. The LRM15s of the original are downgraded to 10-racks, and in place of the autocannons, two MRM10s and two pairs of SRM racks per torso are added, giving each torso 10 of each missile type for combat at all ranges. A pair of ER Medium Lasers rounds out the 2K's weaponry, and two additional double heat sinks compared to the original help keep it cooler.

Description

The -2R variant of the Mauler uses relatively new weapons. The standard AC/2s are replaced with Ultra versions, doubling their potential damage. Paired ER Medium Lasers are fitted in arms formerly housing the ER Large Lasers. The missile launchers are reduced to smaller LRM-10s. A heavier standard fusion engine is utilized instead of the expensive XL.

Description

The -3R variant of the Mauler upgrades the design and addresses the concerns of pilots that used the -1R model. The four Autocannon/2s have been replaced with a pair of LB-X Autocannon/10s. The ER Large Lasers were removed from the design, but the MAL-3R retains the two LRM-15 launchers of its predecessor. Also incorporated in the design is a single Small Laser and a C3 Slave unit, the latter of which allows the -3R to use targeting data from units that are closer to the enemy and vice versa. It also has a ninety meter jump capability.

Description

Designed by the Lyran Alliance to serve as a mobile artillery piece in places where conventional vehicles could not reach, the Mauler-3L carries as its main weaponry a pair of massive Snipers. For close-range defense, the mech carries four Medium Pulse Lasers. The -3S's biggest downside is that the designers were forced to skimp on ammo, with the Snipers only having one pitiful ton each.

Description

Based loosely on the old MAL-1R and MAL-3R specifications, this variant designed by Luthien Armor Works to utilize brand new technology comes equipped with two Defiance Bombast Lasers, two Irian Multi-Missile Launcher 7s with two tons of LRM ammo and two tons of SRM ammo, and two Mydron Light Autocannon/2s with two tons of ammo, It has been upgraded with Case II, and has sixteen tons of standard armor, three jump jets, and a light 270 engine.

Description

Designed by a maverick Ghost Bear warrior after facing off against dozens of Kuritan Maulers in the Clan Invasion, the Ghost Bear dubbed this, his final version of the Mauler, as the Mauler IIIIIC to represent the iterations he worked through. Using cutting edge Ghost Bear technology gathered from Trials of Possession, the Mauler-IIIIIC is as deadly as it gets with a simple loadout: a pair each of ER Large Pulse Lasers and Hyper-Assault Gauss Rifle-40s lay down withering firepower. 4 tons of ammo per HAG keep them firing regularly. However, the IIIIIC has severe heat issues, but if the enemy's dead, does it matter?
