Based on the now-extinct Storm Giant, the King Cobra was a powerful, yet mobile battlemech capable of engaging targets effectively at any range. Capabilities: Weighing in at 100 tons, the King Cobra is mobile for its size, due to the use of the Type 79 400XL Fusion Engine as its main powerplant. The use of Endo-Steel chassis helps further save weight, while 18.5 tons of Forging ZK11 Standard Armor would allow the 'mech to withstand a great deal of punishment. In terms of long-range firepower, each arm has an Artemis-guided Type XX "Great Bow" LRM-20s, with each launcher supplied with two tons of ammunition; these are complemented by a Type DDS "Kingston" ER PPC mounted in the center torso. A Series 4D-2 Heavy Large Laser in the right side torso, complemented by a pair of Series 2b ER Medium Lasers, provide additional mid-to-close-range firepower. A three-ton Targeting Computer improves direct-fire accuracy (and compensates for the Heavy Laser's inherent inaccuracy) while a whopping twenty-two double heat sinks provide great cooling capacity for the 'mech, although overheating could still be an issue. Deployment: The King Cobra is primarily deployed by Clan Cloud Cobra, although it has seen use in Clan Star Adder and Clan Steel Viper, until the latter was destroyed in a Trial of Annihilation in 3075. Outside of those factions, the Clan Stone Lion is the only other faction to deploy the King Cobra battlemechs as part of their forces. ================================================================================ Equipment Type Rating Mass -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Internal Structure: Endo-Steel 152 points 5.00 Internal Locations: 1 HD, 2 LT, 2 RT, 1 LA, 1 RA Engine: XL Fusion Engine 400 26.50 Walking MP: 4 Running MP: 6 Jumping MP: 0 Heat Sinks: Double Heat Sink 22(44) 12.00 Heat Sink Locations: 3 LT, 1 RT, 1 LL, 1 RL Gyro: Standard 4.00 Cockpit: Standard 3.00 Actuators: L: SH+UA+LA R: SH+UA+LA Armor: Standard Armor AV - 296 18.50 CASE Locations: LA, RA 0.00 Internal Armor Structure Factor Head 3 9 Center Torso 31 42 Center Torso (rear) 15 L/R Torso 21 30 L/R Torso (rear) 12 L/R Arm 17 33 L/R Leg 21 40 ================================================================================ Equipment Location Heat Critical Mass -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LRM-20 RA 6 4 5.00 Artemis IV FCS RA - 1 1.00 LRM-20 LA 6 4 5.00 Artemis IV FCS LA - 1 1.00 Heavy Large Laser RT 18 3 4.00 Targeting Computer RT - 3 3.00 2 ER Medium Lasers LT 10 2 2.00 ER PPC CT 15 2 6.00 @LRM-20 (Artemis) (12) RA - 2 2.00 @LRM-20 (Artemis) (12) LA - 2 2.00 Free Critical Slots: 2 BattleForce Statistics MV S (+0) M (+2) L (+4) E (+6) Wt.

An experiment on making a Scylla OmniMech?

Not really; but that is a good idea.
