==Description==
 
The '''''Ironhold''''' Assault Battle Armor was developed by [[Clan Jade Falcon]] during the [[Jihad]]. It started as a secret project which was code name, ''Project Ferrum''.  The Ironhold began with development of the Anti-Personnel Gauss Rifle in [[3069]]. The Battle Armor was developed with support of the Elemental Trinary of [[3rd Talon (Clan Jade Falcon)|3rd Falcon Talon]] [[Cluster]]. The Battle Armor was successfully tested in periphery in secret.  It was believed that ''Ironhold'' could replace the Clan's [[ProtoMech|ProtoMechs]]
 
 
 
It wasn't until [[3077]], when the factory on [[Sudeten]] could be brought online to mass produce the suit.  The ''Ironhold'' first saw combat in June of '77, where it was deployed by Talon's Elemental Trinary with [[Devlin Stone]]' Coalition efforts on [[Shiloh]].
 
 
 
The ''Ironhold'' is noted for being more mobile than typical Clan Assault Armor, where it can employ its [[Jump Jets]] and give itself better tactical advantage over its opponents.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3085'', p. 130 Ironhold - Background on Battle Armor.</ref>
 
 
 
 
 
==Armament==
 
The Armor's main weapons are its arm mounted AP Gauss Rifles.  Each of the large guns has been allotted 20 rounds of ammunition.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3085'', p. 130 Ironhold - Main weapons noted.</ref>
 
 
 
==Variants==
 
*Fire - The Fire variant of the Ironhold is geared as a more traditional Assault Battle Armor. It firepower is doubled by the addition of second pair of AP Gauss Rifles mounted on the main body. Due to stability issues, the Armor's Jump Jets have been removed.  The armor type has been changed from Standard to [[Fire-Resistant Armor]].
