Description
Like most superheavies, the Xerxes is an experimental weapons platform designed for heavy siege operations. Designed in secret by the Capellan Confederation after capturing Word of Blake and Steiner superheavy examples, the Xerxes is a slow and ponderous machine but has the reach to hit just about anything anywhere. Armed with a heavy battery of large LRM launchers, the Xerxes can also call upon a Gauss Rifle for direct fire needs. The armor is incredibly thick and CASE protects the extensive ammunition bins.
Bonuses
Mech Quirk: Improved Targeting
+1 accuracy with ranged weapons
Pilot Affinity: Ice Cold
Adds 9 bonus heat sinking

Description
Reverse-engineered based on a captured Capellan XER-4S, the XER-4W is a dedicated artillery mech armed with prototype Ultra Arrow IV launchers able to fire twice as fast as the standard launcher, the prototype is also equipped with experimental heat sinking equipment and improved simultaneous multi-target capabilities based on captured Clan technology. The lack of medium and short-range weaponry makes the design dependent on spotters working alongside the XER-4W, but the design compensates it with the overwhelming amount of artillery firepower it can field.

Description
Like most superheavies, the Xerxes is an experimental weapons platform designed for heavy siege operations. The XER-5M however takes the 'experimental' bit to new heights, making use of two Experimental MIRV superweapons fresh from Capellan workshops. Due to the weight and limitations of the MIRVs the -5M cannot make use of any other weaponry but it's widely accepted that it doesn't need to thanks to their sheer destructive power. The rest of the design is given over to heat sinking and ammunition. Woe betide anyone the XER-5M can get a target lock on.

Designed in secret by the Capellan Confederation after captured Word of Blake and Steiner superheavy examples the Xerxes is a slow and ponderous machine but has the reach to hit just about anything anywhere. This Xerxes, the XER-MKD, is a rarely seen variant found in the hands of several mercenary units around the Inner Sphere. It is armed with a battery of Platinum Thunderbolt-15s and -20s and is incredibly deadly at any range.
