Description

The Phoenix was the Rim Worlds Republic's first effort to design a jump-capable BattleMech patterned after the Terran Hegemony's Wasp. The primitive Phoenix, despite House Amaris' best efforts, was an unfortunate machine. Slow, with limited jump capacity, and with heat issues if it alpha striked, the Phoenix was not well received in its original form. Eventually, the Rim Worlds engineers got the mech right but it took decades of effort. The primitive Phoenix lived on though in distant periphery militias who were desperate for any war material they could get.

Description

The Phoenix was the Rim Worlds Republic's first effort to design a jump-capable BattleMech patterned after the Terran Hegemony's Wasp. The Phoenix took decades to get right, and earned the unfortunate nickname Sparkly Bird in testing, but finally reached completion with this, the PX-3R. Armed with a PPC and dual SRM-2s, the Phoenix was a well armored and maneuverable mech. Sadly, it fell into obscurity after the Amaris Civil War and disappeared outside of the Rim Worlds Republic's military. In the 3060s though, the RWR decided to put several of the old Amaris designs back into production in order to boost its flagging military, including the Phoenix.
