Description
The Ymir is the first homegrown Lyran Commonwealth BattleMech. Then-known as the Bipedal Weapon Platform, the Ymir first saw action in 2462 and was roughly based on a slimming of the Mackie's basic frame. While primitive by modern standards, the Ymir eventually grew into a capable, fast, agile assault mech in its own right. The Ymir BWP-2B became the stock model starting in 2475. Armed with an AC/5, Large Laser, 2 LRM-5s, and 4 SRM-2s, the Ymir had weapons for any situation. However, the heat sinks struggled during heavy combat.

While primitive by modern standards, the Ymir eventually grew into a capable, fast, agile assault mech in its own right. The Ymir BWP-2E was introduced in 2478 and sported a pair of PPCs alongside a SRM-6 and LRM-10, providing reliable firepower on a fast heavy frame. However, the -2E's 16 heat sinks could not handle the heat and were quickly overtaxed.

Description
One of the very earliest BattleMechs in history, the Ymir was an unusual and largely forgotten design. However, the Periphery never forgot about it and so put several back into service with that typical Periphery flair. Armed with a Large Chem Pulse Laser and Medium Rifle for primary firepower, the BWP-2PA has a respectable punch even before the four Reloading RL-10s or the twin Gyrojet-15s in the shoulders. Don't turn your back on the Ymir, lest you never turn your back on anything ever again.

The Ymir BWP-3A was introduced in 2733 and sported a pair of Large Lasers alongside an Artemis IV-enabled SRM-6 and LRM-10, providing reliable firepower. Additionally, the -3A upgraded to Double Heat Sinks, ensuring ice-cold operation.

Description
The Ymir is the first homegrown Lyran Commonwealth BattleMech. Then-known as the Bipedal Weapon Platform, the Ymir first saw action in 2462 and was roughly based on a slimming of the Mackie's basic frame. The Ymir BWP-X1 is the original primitive design, armed with a battery of SRMs, LRMs, an AC/5, a Large Laser, and a pair of Flamers, the X1 was theoretically equipped for any combat but in reality was slow, badly armored, and overheated in heavy combat. It was quickly upgraded to the -2B standard and the X1 was forgotten.

Description
The Primitive Ymir is even older than the regular ones still in service to the Lyran Commonwealth. The Primitives are so old that they've each seen dozens of refits across the centuries. One such refit is the XPA. Armed with a Medium Rifle and Large Binary Laser for primary firepower, the real punch comes from the four Reloading RL-10s and the twin Gyrojet-10s. At point blank, twin Machine Guns decimate infantry.
