−	Created by [[Clan Star Adder]] as an insult to their enemies, [[Clan Blood Spirit]], the '''''Blood Asp''''' has a large amount of available [[Pod Space|pod space]] for its size. Based on the ''[[Kingfisher]]'', the ''Blood Asp'' adds an [[XL engine]], but space constraints forced the replacement of the ''Kingfisher'''s [[ferro-fibrous]] armor with standard plate. The ''Blood Asp'' incorporates sixteen tons of this armor and fourteen [[double heat sink]]s in the base chassis. One of the first 'Mechs to field the breakthrough [[Heavy Laser]] technology, the ''Blood Asp'' proves to be an offensive powerhouse. Delivering incredible damage at all ranges, the ''Blood Asp'' makes short work of any enemy regardless of size.<ref name=TRO182>''Technical Readout: 3060'', p. 182</ref>	+	Created by [[Clan Star Adder]] as an insult to their enemies, [[Clan Blood Spirit]], the '''''Blood Asp''''' has a large amount of available [[Pod Space|pod space]] for its size.

−	The Blood Asp would fade out and eventually risk extinction in the Inner Sphere after the [[Wars of Reaving]], with no Inner Sphere production and surviving examples largely limited to the [[Clan Hell's Horses Touman]]. That is, until that [[Clan Snow Raven]] revealed that they had managed to seize plans to manufacture the OmniMech and restarted production using modified [[Kingfisher]] production lines in [[3142]]. Seeking to edge into the [[Clan Sea Fox|Sea Foxes']] market, the Snow Ravens began aggressively marketing their newly-produced Blood Asps, at times personally sending Blood Asp stars to violently demonstrate the platform's prowess.<ref name=RG32p14/>
	==Weapons and Equipment==		==Weapons and Equipment==
−	The ''Blood Asp'''s primary weapons are a pair of [[Gauss rifle]]s that can strip off nearly a ton of armor at the range of six hundred and sixty meters, though they do not have a lot of ammunition, so [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarriors]] must be sparing with their shots. These are backed up by four [[Heavy Medium Laser]]s, a pair of [[Medium Pulse Lasers]], and a [[Streak SRM-6]] for close-range work. To aid in heat dissipation, the primary configuration incorporates four additional heat sinks.<ref name=TRO182/>	+	The ''Blood Asp'''s primary weapons are a pair of [[Gauss Rifle]]s that can strip off nearly a ton of armor at the range of six hundred and sixty meters, though they do not have a lot of ammunition, so [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarriors]] must be sparing with their shots.

−	*;Alternate Configuration B : The second alternate configuration is a fire-support design that uses a [[Gauss rifle]] and a pair of [[LRM-20]]s with [[Artemis IV FCS|Artemis IV Fire Control Systems]].

	*;Alternate Configuration C : This ammunition-dependent version uses a pair of [[Ultra Autocannon/10]]s and an [[LB 20-X AC]] for close-range duels, which its dearth of ammunition further reinforces. It mounts a lone [[ER Large Laser]] for long-range support.<ref name=TRO183 /> BV (1.0) = 1,969,<ref name=CO /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3060'', p. 220</ref> BV (2.0) = 2,270<ref>''Record Sheets: 3060 Unabridged'', p. 277</ref>		*;Alternate Configuration C : This ammunition-dependent version uses a pair of [[Ultra Autocannon/10]]s and an [[LB 20-X AC]] for close-range duels, which its dearth of ammunition further reinforces.

	*;Alternate Configuration D : The fifth configuration is similar to the primary, though it is more geared to long-range support. It uses a Gauss Rifle, two ER Large Lasers, and three [[Ultra Autocannon/2]]s. A pair of [[Heavy Medium Laser]]s enable the 'Mech to remain useful after it has run out of ammo.<ref name=TRO183 /> BV (1.0) = 1,977,<ref name=CO /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3060'', p. 221</ref> BV (2.0) = 2,396<ref>''Record Sheets: 3060 Unabridged'', p. 278</ref>		*;Alternate Configuration D : The fifth configuration is similar to the primary, though it is more geared to long-range support.

−	*;Alternate Configuration E : This configuration makes use of [[ATM]]s in the form of four [[ATM 3]]s. A single ton of ammunition for each pair does not allow the weapons to make the most of their flexibility. A Targeting Computer guides paired ER PPCs and Medium Pulse Lasers.

	*;Alternate Configuration F : Developed during the Jihad, this configuration is designed for close-quarters combat. The ''Blood Asp'' has been given four [[Streak SRM-6]] launchers with three tons of ammunition, and a pair of Medium Pulse Lasers and AP Gauss Rifles for short range combat. For medium and long range, it mounts two [[ER PPC]]s and a single [[Plasma Cannon]] with a ton ammo. To cope with the heat buildup, the 'Mech has been given an additional five Double Heat Sinks.

As its alternative weapons, the 'Mech includes a pair of ER Large Lasers split between its right arm and right torso, and a pair of Medium Pulse Lasers and Heavy Medium Lasers.  Its direct fire weapons are backed up by a Targeting Computer for increased accuracy.

−	*;Alternate Configuration I : An aftermarket configuration favored by the Federated Suns with their newly acquired Blood Asps, the I configuration carries two [[Large Re-engineered Laser]]s, one in each arm. A massive [[Improved Heavy Gauss Rifle]] sits in the right torso, with excess volume spilling over into the center torso. A quartet of [[ER Small Lasers]] occupy the opposite torso. BV (2.0) = 2,252<ref name=RG32p14/>
−
−	*;Alternate Configuration T : Created by Clan Snow Raven in 3142, the T configuration is visually identical to the Prime. However, a pair of Inner Sphere [[Plasma Rifle]]s substitute the Gauss Rifles, while each arm mounts an ER Large and two ER Medium Lasers. The Streak SRM-6 is replaced with a [[SRM-6|standard non-Streak model]], and the weight savings are used to mount a [[supercharger]] and additional heat sinks. BV (2.0) = 3,069<ref name=RG32p14/>
