Interesting variant. It could give some real punch to a light mech lance to have one of these. The large laser would be bad news to most any light mech when hit in the legs.

The old 3025 fluff does not mention this one, but I would say its a Kurita variant, but I would wonder how many of these Kurita may have.

Team it with 3 Locusts, and make life interesting for the other light or medium lance commander.



This one shows up in the Sorenson's Sabres' scenario pack. So far as I can tell it's a unique design.

Sorry about the thread necromancy, but I chanced upon this in the TRO section.

Sorry, mud, but it states quite clearly that the Hermes III is a standardised conversion offered by the Ostman works (wherever they are) to House Kurita. So yeah, the builder of the Ost series is converting a House Marik mech for the convenience of House Kurita.

The other Sorenson's Sabres mech, the Trebuchet 7K, is less clear. That one may be a field refit or a refit kit or a limited production model. Meaning it may be unique. Or not.

But the Hermes III is not unique, according to the original fluff there should be a few about!
