Description

The Fafnir was intended to become Defiance Industries of Hesperus' flagship BattleMech. The slow assault design serves as a platform for the pair of 'Thor's Hammers', the brand new Heavy Gauss Rifles, the largest non-artillery 'Mech weapon in existence. The Fafnir can lay out an incredible amount of firepower at extreme ranges, so take it seriously.

Description

Despite being developed in order to make use of the newly developed Heavy Gauss Rifles, the Fafnir proved adept as a general heavy weapons platform and spawned several spin-off variants, including the FNR-5L. The -5L replaces the weaponry loadout of the FNR-5 with a quartet of torso-mounted LB-10X Autocannons. Each arm carries an ER Medium Laser and the head has an ER Small Laser mounted next to the cockpit for extra close-range defense. Four tons of ammo is technically sufficient, though the -5L is cautioned to keep close to supply lines.

Description

Created out of spare Rotary Autocannons and a damaged Fafnir which suffered a critical loss of both its Thors Hammers Heavy Gauss Rifles, the FNR-5R variant of the mech fits a quad mount of Rotary Autocannons, able to spew out a hail of fire rapidly. It suffers low ammo like the model it was made on, and isnt able to stray far from supply lines, but can dish out tremendous damage while fully loaded. Protected by an ECM the mech proves a tough yet slow target, the weapons allowing for withering fire. The head mounted pulse laser was retained for short range firepower, though when out of ammo the armament is woefully useless.

Description

After the runaway success of Defiance's Fafnir, the corporation fielded a request from Lyran officials for an indirect support variant of the mech. Defiance came back with this, the Fafnir-6. Armed with a total of 70 LRM tubes, the Fafnir-6 could lay down extreme amounts of supporting fire at great range. Unfortunately, the design ultimately floundered. Although it was just what the Lyrans asked for it turns out that it wasn't doing anything better than, say, a Longbow. Combined with its weak close-range defenses and the Fafnir-6 faded into obscurity.

Description

Designed to make heavy use of an experimental so-called Gauss Capacitor, the Fafnir FNR-6X carries a pair of Silver Bullet Gauss Rifles for primary firepower. A quartet of ER Medium Lasers back them up for no-frills firepower while a brace of Improved Jump Jets give unexpected mobility to the Fafnir.

Description

The Fafnir is perhaps the most famous Lyran assault mech of the modern era but even it isn't immune to the wear and tear of combat. During the FedCom Civil War, rightful Archon Peter Steiner-Davion had to make due with what he could get for his salvaged Fafnir command mech. Nicknamed the Wrath, after his feelings for Katherine Steiner-Davion, this Fafnir carries a Heavy Gauss Rifle, a trio of Medium Pulse Lasers, a pair of ER Large Lasers, and then oddly enough five Rocket Launcher-15s. Using a Compact Gyro freed up enough space for a C3 Slave unit and a Guardian ECM suite to boot.

Description

It's not quite clear how this mech came to be. The Lyran Commonwealth is a long, long way away from the Sanctuary Worlds and yet somehow one of their most beloved designs, the mighty Fafnir, ended up in Sanctuary hands as the FNR-MKD. Armed with a weird grab-bag of technologies including a Clan XXL and triple DBAC/15s, the design is deeply unusual and is not well understood. Still, no one can deny its power and now that power is yours. Use it wisely, Commander.
