Description

The Charger is seen as an example of abject failure in BattleMech design. Wells Technologies originally wanted to produce an ultra-heavy scout 'Mech for the Star League Defense Force that was not only fast but could survive contact with the enemy. This was done by building the Charger on an 80-ton frame, making it the heaviest scout 'Mech in existence, and powering it with a massive LTV 400 fusion engine that took up almost sixty percent of the Charger's mass. With a top speed which allowed it to outrun most other 'Mechs the Charger was then given ten tons of Durallex Heavy armor, enough to survive repeated hits from a Class 20 Autocannon. However these features left very little room for offensive capability, an intentional deficiency on the part of the design team as they saw any task other than gathering data a distraction.

Description

The 1A5 variant of the Charger was one of the first variants of the Charger made to take it from the role of scout to assault 'Mech. A Capellan modification to the CGR-1Ls they received as part of the Kapteyn Accords, the engine was downgraded to a 320 version, which reduced the maximum speed of the 'Mech to 64.8 km/h, and four of the small lasers were removed. In their place was a Tomodzuru Autocannon/20 as its primary weapon, two Bical SRM-6 launchers and an Argra 3L Medium Laser, while the 'Mech's armor was increased by five tons. This made the CGR-1A5 extremely dangerous at close ranges and gave it a speed comparable to most 'Mechs in the heavy weight class, while carrying armor on par with other eighty-ton 'Mechs.

Description

A Combine-LAW attempt to make the Charger more effective at long ranges, the 1A9 used a reduced 320-rated engine, lowering its top speed to 64.8 km/h, and its arsenal was overhauled. All of the smaller lasers (except for the head mounted one) were replaced with medium lasers and a single LRM-20 launcher was mounted in the right torso, with two tons of reloads carried in the left torso. To make up for the lost mobility, four jump jets were also installed, two in each leg, to allow the Charger to jump up to one hundred and twenty meters. This variant was fielded in time to surprise the Armed Forces of the Federated Suns during the War of 3039, but in years since the design fell into the hands of the Outworlds Alliance thanks to a legal snafu which gave Ravenna Electronics a production license.

Description

An export model sold to the Capellan Confederation as part of the Kapteyn Accords, the CGR-1L was a simple modification of the Charger in an attempt to make it more effective following their disastrous use on Chara in 3023. In place of four and a half tons of armor and all five Small Lasers, the 1L mounts a Large Laser in its right arm and two medium lasers in either side torso. While more prone to overheating and less protected - mounting armor comparable to that of a traditional scout 'Mech - it was better capable of defending itself against other scout 'Mechs, and at the time that was good enough for the desperate warriors of the Capellan Confederation Armed Forces. Since then, the CGR-1L has remained in Capellan service as a training 'Mech and, according to rumor, punishment assignment for dissident soldiers.

Description

Another Periphery Armory, Inc offering, the Charger-1PA1 is a simple, but effective, update to the original Charger. The -1A1's Small Lasers are updated to Chemical equivalents while a Jury-Rigged XL 400 rated engine gives enough tonnage to add a quartet of Large Chemical Lasers to the party. The rest of the mech is simple: just armor, heat sinks, and ammo. Simple, rugged, effective, just what an up-and-coming Periphery milita needs, from your friends at PAI!

Description

The Charger, an oft maligned mech, is one of those chassis that seem to show up whenever someone needs a mech. Periphery Armaments, knowing full well of this 'availability factor' jumped at the chance to make their own mark on the Charger lineage. Knowing full well that periphery powers would need a low cost mech, PAI focused on in-expensive reliable weaponry. Knowing the Charger was noted for high speed, meant Prototype XL and Prototype Endosteel were required to free up valuable tonnage. The PAR1 Charger CGR-1PAR1 was born of this confluence of expensive internal components, cheap and reliable weapons, and 19.5 tons of Face Hardened Grade B Heavy Plate armor The 1PAR1 Charger is Fast, Heavy and moderately armed with a Howitzer 8 (3 tons of ammo) 2 Medium ChemPulse Lasers and a Large ChemLaser (3 tons of Ammo again.)

Description

Made by a disgraced arena fighter trying to work back into the limelight, the Charger-1R1 is built around a 350-rated Light Fusion Engine for solid assault mech speed. However, it has a Reinforced Structure, giving it incredible durability. Combined with an all-energy loadout, the -1R1 is incredibly hard to destroy. 6 Small Variable-Speed Pulse Lasers give it solid up-close punch while an ER PPC is the sole concession to ranged combat. The disgraced MechWarrior was notable for dismembering his opponents by hand, thus the point-blank loadout.

Description

Draconis Combine's 3K was an upgrade of the 1A9 that used an uprated XL engine to raise the Charger's top speed back to 86.4 km/h. The head-mounted small laser was removed, the medium lasers were swapped out for Medium Pulse Lasers, and the LRM-20 launcher was mated with an Artemis IV fire control system to improve accuracy. The addition of a fifth jump jet mounted in the rear torso gave the 'Mech a jumping distance of up to one hundred and fifty meters. This variant was confirmed to have been deployed on An Ting and may have been what Davion forces initially dubbed the Charger II; however, descriptions of the Charger II suggest that it was more likely a LRM-equipped variant of the Hatamoto-Chi.

An upgrade of the Charger-1A5, the -4A4 keeps the Charger in a more traditional assault mech role. Built around a Light Fusion Engine that keeps it moving at 60 kph, the -4A4 carries a massive Ultra Autocannon/20 as its primary weapon. Backing up the gigantic autocannon are a pair of SRM 6s and four ER Medium Lasers. The -4A4 carries 14 double heat sinks that struggle to keep the mech's heat under control and is defended by 15.5 tons of armor.

The Charger-C is a minor modification of the CGR-3K that sees a Medium Pulse Laser dropped in exchange for an extra ton of LRM ammo and a C3 slave unit. This allows the CGR-C to better coordinate with its lancemates and form an even more effective force on the battlefield.

Description

A variant of the Charger that took the 1A5 variant to its logical conclusion with new technologies, the SA5 was powered by a 320 rated Light Fusion Engine, giving it a speed of 64.8 km/h, while a MASC system was added allowing the 'Mech to reach speeds of 86.4 km/h in short bursts. The 'Mech was also built on an Endo Steel chassis to save even more weight. The SA5 carried an LB-X Autocannon/20 as its primary weapon. This was backed up by three ER Medium Lasers and two Streak SRM-6 launchers. The 'Mech was protected by fifteen and a half tons of armor.

Description

Number Seven started life as a Charger CGR-1A1 but thanks to its eccentric owner, Terry Ford, it quickly morphed into something very different. Ford was called the luckiest warrior in the Inner Sphere for his knack of getting into and out of deadly scrapes that would kill other mechs and pilots but that him and Number Seven escaped easily. Unfortunately, his luck eventually failed him and left Number Seven without an owner. Somehow, it looks to have ended up on the arena circuit and been upgraded heavily, now sporting an expanded laser battery and DHS, plus the Jump Jets that led to Ford's end during a botched Death-From-Above.

Description

This radical modification looks to turn the Charger into a traditional assault 'Mech by reducing the 'Mechs speed to 54 km/h, which allows the use of a smaller engine (incidentally, the commonplace Pitban 240 reactor). The 'Mech is armored with fifteen and a half tons of armor and is armed with four Large Lasers, one in each arm and side torso, and a Medium Laser in its head; twenty-eight heat sinks kept the 'Mech cool.
