==Description==
 
==Description==
Debuting in [[Introduction Year::3069]], the [[Celestial series]] of OmniMechs are engineered to be used by the elite [[Word of Blake]] [[Manei Domini]] troops. The '''''Archangel''''' is the largest of these designs. Designed to be an "anchor" for Word formations, the [['Mech]] is known as a [[Zombie Mech|"zombie"]] because of its ability to take extreme amounts of damage and continue operating. The ''Archangel'' features a [[compact fusion engine]], [[Compact Gyro|compact gyro]], a [[small cockpit]], and nineteen and a half tons of standard armor, which frees up a large amount of internal space, while an [[Endo Steel]] chassis opens up free tonnage, allowing the ''Archangel'' to have a massive amount of pod space. A [[C3i Computer]] allows the 'Mech to direct and coordinate fire.

The ''Invictus'', or primary, configuration of the ''Archangel'' carries a [[Guardian ECM Suite]] which allows the 'Mech to disrupt enemy electronics and targeting systems. For ranged combat, the ''Archangel Invictus'' carries a [[plasma rifle]] and [[Heavy PPC]], both of which are slaved to an advanced [[targeting computer]] for increased accuracy. For increased mobility, especially in dense or built-up terrain this configuration has [[jump jet]]s, allowing it to leap up to 90 meters. Finally, a [[Retractable Blade]] gives the design added defense in close combat situations.

==Alternate Configurations==
*; Alternate Configuration A (''Dominus'') : The ''Dominus'' configuration is armed with a pair of arm-mounted [[Heavy PPC]]s, giving it powerful ranged combat capabilities. It also has a [[Snub-Nose PPC]] and a pair of [[ER Medium Laser]]s mounted in the head and center torso, respectively, giving it a powerful close range punch. Eight additional [[double heat sink]]s keep the 'Mech's heat under control.<ref name=TRJp180f /> BV (2.0) = 2,134<ref name=TRJp180f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3075 Unabridged - The Cutting Edge'', p. 408</ref>

*; Alternate Configuration B (''Infernus'') : Similar in some respects to the ''Dominus'', the ''Infernus'' also mounts a [[Heavy PPC]] in the right arm, but the other arm contains two [[Light PPC]]s. The weight saved allows the ''Archangel'' B to carry two [[Snub-Nose PPC]]s. Nine extra [[double heat sink]]s are carried.<ref name=TRJp180f /> BV (2.0) = 2,069<ref name=TRJp180f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3075 Unabridged - The Cutting Edge'', p. 409</ref>

*; Alternate Configuration C (''Comminus'') : The odd variant out, the ''Archangel'' C eschews PPCs in favor of two [[MRM 40]]s, each of which are fed by a two-ton, [[CASE]]-protected ammunition bin. They are supplemented by a pair of [[ER Medium Laser]]s and a rear-mounted [[ER Small Laser]]. A [[Guardian ECM Suite]] protects it from enemy electronics. Three additional [[double heat sink]]s complete the package.<ref name=TRJp180f /> BV (2.0) = 2,010<ref name=TRJp180f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3075 Unabridged - The Cutting Edge'', p. 410</ref>

*; Alternate Configuration D (''Luminos'') : Meant for work at longer ranges than the previous variants, the main guns of the ''Luminos'' are a pair of [[ER PPC]]s. [[Jump jets]] give it the ability to maneuver to a good position to snipe from more quickly, while a [[Guardian ECM Suite]] provides added defense. In case an enemy gets close, the ''Archangel'' D can utilize four [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s, an [[ER Small Laser]], and a [[Small Pulse Laser]] that is devastating to unarmored [[infantry]]. Five [[double heat sink]]s counter some of the load.<ref name=TRJp180f /> BV (2.0) = 2,105<ref name=TRJp180f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3075 Unabridged - The Cutting Edge'', p. 411</ref>

*; Alternate Configuration E (''Eminus'') : The ''Eminus'' variant is similar in many respects to the ''Luminos'' with its pair of arm-mounted [[ER PPC]]s. It differs in that it is ground-bound and more focused on long range. It only carries a pair of [[ER Small Laser]]s to supplement its damage potential up close. Instead, it mounts an [[ER Large Laser]] and a [[Light PPC]]. The inclusion of a [[Targeting Computer]] makes all the weapons more accurate.

Support weaponry comes in the form of a pair of [[Clan]]-tech [[ER Small Laser]]s in the left arm, two [[Clan]] [[ER medium laser|ER Medium]]s in the center torso and a pair of head-mounted [[ER Flamer]]s.
