==Description==
The '''Fensalir Combat WiGE''' was an attack craft which was built as a joint effort between [[Johnston Industries]] and [[House Steiner|House Steiner]] based manufacturer Nashan Diversified. The Fensalir was first produced at Nashan's plant on [[Furillo]] in [[3084]], while Johnston - still rebuilding its own manufacturing facilities - shipped components to assemble the WiGEs.<ref name="TRO:3085p44+"/>

The Fensalir's main weapon is its [[Defiance Hammerfist]] [[Heavy Gauss Rifle]], which has been allotted three tons of ammunition. The vehicle's other weapons include a pair of nose-mounted [[Extended Range Medium Lasers]] and two [[MML-7|7-tubed Multi-Missile Launchers]].  The vehicle has two tons of missile ammunition located in the main body.

The Fensalir at the time was the largest Combat WiGE of its kind. It boasted 11.5 tons of [[Heavy Ferro-Fibrous]] armor to protect its hull.  The vehicle features an [[Infantry Bay|Infantry Transport Bay]] to allow it to deliver up to 4 tons of troops to a hot zone.<ref name="TRO:3085p44+"/>

*;HAG : Originally known as the A88 by Inner Sphere intelligence organizations developed in [[Introduction Year::3084]]<ref name="MUL2"/>, this vehicle turns out to be Clan Wolf-in-Exile's copy of the Fensalir. This Fensalir is a [[Experimental Technology|Mix-Tech variant]] which uses both Inner Sphere chassis components and Clan weaponry.  The main weapon is swapped out for a [[HAG 30|Class 30 Hyper-Assault Gauss Rifle]].  The secondary weaponry is changed out for a pair of [[ATM-9|ATM 9 launchers]] and the Clan version of the ER Medium Lasers.  The vehicle's infantry bay is reconfigured to handle a point's worth of Battle Armor<ref name="TRO:3085p44+"/>.

*;Infantry :Introduced also in [[Introduction Year::3084]]<ref name="MUL3"/> and based on the Nashan's original 50 ton infantry version of the WiGE, this version of the Fensalir revisits those features. The Infantry version allows for expansion of the Infantry bay to handle a [[platoon]]'s worth of Battle Armor.  To allow for the expanded troop capacity, the designers drop the MMLs and its ammo bays.  The vehicle has been given three [[Machine Guns]] which are mounted in the nose and the two sides of the vehicle.  With the addition of a half ton of armor, the vehicle's ammunition bay is enhanced with [[CASE]]<ref name="TRO:3085p44+"/>.

*; Fensalir (3132) : This version was inspired by the [[Schildkröte]]. It trades away missile and infantry capabilities for an [[Armored Motive System]].<ref name="TRO:3150p222">''Technical Readout: 3150'', p. 222, "New Tech, New Upgrades - Vehicles"</ref>

==Custom Variant==

*;XXL : This variant was used by pro-Lyran forces in the [[Republic of the Sphere]]. It's protected by eleven and a half tons of [[Heavy Ferro-Fibrous]] armor, while it's main striking power comes from a forward mounted [[Improved Heavy Gauss Rifle]] and a single [[SRM-6]]. A Small Pulse Laser covers the rear arc of the vehicle, and two [[Sponson Turret]]s each contain a pair of [[Machine Gun]]s. The Machine Guns and SRM have a ton of ammunition available, while the Improved Heavy Gauss Rifle has a standard three ton ammo bay. An [[XXL Engine]] is used to maintain the standard Fensalir's speed. The four ton infantry bay has been replaced by a ten ton cargo bay.<ref name=XTRO:MWp12>''Experimental Technical Readout: Most Wanted'', p. 12</ref> BV (2.0) = 1,513<ref>''Experimental Technical Readout: Most Wanted'', p. 25</ref>
