Description

A second-line Clan 'Mech feared by many Inner Sphere pilots. Plans to replace the King Crab's loadout with clusters of Large Lasers grew from a shortage of autocannon ammunition and gave rise to a lighter and leaner new design, the Supernova. With average assault mech mobility enhanced by a trio of jump jets, the Supernova uses cheap components to maximum effect. The Supernova's only armaments are six Clan ER Large Lasers. While this is a fair amount of firepower for a 'Mech of its size, it has a severe overheating problem. After firing no more than a few full consecutive salvos the Supernova will force an automatic shutdown, so MechWarriors must carefully manage their heat.

Description

A second-line Clan 'Mech feared by many Inner Sphere pilots. Plans to replace the King Crab's loadout with clusters of Large Lasers grew from a shortage of autocannon ammunition and gave rise to a lighter and leaner new design, the Supernova. With average assault mech mobility enhanced by a trio of jump jets, the Supernova uses cheap components to maximum effect. Created by Clan Nova Cat after their Abjuration, this variant uses Endo Steel and increased armor protection. The first variant replaces four of the ER Large Lasers and many of their attendant heat sinks with four ATM 9s, six tons of ammunition, and adds an advanced Targeting Computer to guide the remaining pair of lasers.
