Description
The Marauder II was first built in 3012 in an attempt to take the firepower of the Marauder and combine it with the reliability and ruggedness of an assault chassis. This was achieved by generally upgrading the entire 'Mech's chassis to allow it to carry a much heavier armor and weapons load. The 'Mech was then armored with nineteen tons of armor, giving it protection that rivals that of the Atlas. Finally, to make up for the reduced mobility of the Marauder II, the 'Mech was outfitted with jump jets that give it a jumping capability of up to ninety meters. Blackwell Heavy Industries produced the design exclusively for Wolf's Dragoons until the end of the Fourth Succession War, when Jaime Wolf allowed them to sell to others.

Description
The Marauder II was first built in 3012 in an attempt to take the firepower of the Marauder and combine it with the reliability and ruggedness of an assault chassis. This variant of the Marauder II, the -4B, is a rare introtech variant that carries a ballistic-heavy loadout while maintaining the -4A's armor and speed profile. The -4B carries a pair of AC/10s for its main firepower with 4 tons of ammo while a Large Laser and a pair of Medium Lasers back the autocannons up.

Description
While the standard Marauder II, the MAD-5A, was built to spec for the Wolf's Dragoons to be a line combat unit and a traditional assault mech, the MAD-4HB is only one step removed from being a pirate design. Constructed by pirates after stealing a shipment of Marauder IIs meant for someone else, they removed the fancy equipment they couldn't maintain and filled in the holes with a frankly ungodly number of rockets, allowing the -4HB a punch that can instantly delete lesser mechs and even seriously damage mechs of its own caliber. After the rockets though, the -4HB has little firepower for an assault mech.

Description
The Marauder II was first built in 3012 in an attempt to take the firepower of the Marauder and combine it with the reliability and ruggedness of an assault chassis. The Marauder II carries as its primary weapons a pair of ER PPCs which give it a powerful long range punch. The ER PPCs are backed up by a LB-X Autocannon/10. Finally, for close range combat, the Marauder II carries two M Lasers. Finally, to make up for the reduced mobility of the Marauder II, the 'Mech was outfitted with jump jets that give it a jumping capability of up to ninety meters.

Description
Entirely designed for close-range brawling with a twist, the Marauder II-5J is a brutal and very surprising design. Armed with a fairly paltry loadout for its tonnage with just a pair of LB-10X Autocannons and a pair of SRM-4s, what makes the MAD-5J so dangerous is its four Improved Jump Jets. The IJJs give the -5J an unexpected range that can catch enemies unaware. Should you face one, be cautious of its capabilities.

Description
A Word of Blake model of the Marauder II that is also in use with ComStar, the -5W carries a pair of Snub Nose PPCs as well as a Heavy PPC, with a C3i Computer for Level II coordination. A quintet of Improved Jump Jets give this variant extreme mobility, while 16 Double Heat Sinks help it keep cool.

Description
Acquired by Defiance Industries from GM/Blackwell, the Marauder II has seen an overhaul for the LCAF resulting in the -6S variant. Keeping the incredible armor and the jump jets of all other Marauder IIs, the -6S is built around the newly developed Light Fusion Engine. Carrying a loadout mostly meant for knife-fighting, the -6S is a terror in close-quarters. A quartet of Medium X-Pulse Lasers backup a massive Ultra Autocannon/20 that lets the -6S put incredible damage into any target it can catch. For long range defense the -6S is limited to a 20-tube LRM rack only but its armor is expected to let it close with enemies.

Description
Designed by a Steiner mercenary on the front lines against Clan Jade Falcon, the MAD-7R proved adept enough that it was put in refit production by the Steiner authorities as they acquired the Clantech required to make it. Though it only carries three pieces of Clan technology, they're all critical: a Clan XL engine and a pair of Clan ER PPCs. An Inner Sphere Gauss Rifle and LRM-20 round it out. CASE II protects the ammo bins while a Command Console gives unparalleled battlefield control. The 7R found acceptance, but remains rare because of a lack of Clantech.
