Description
The Naga is an odd OmniMech in many ways. Most of what could be pod space for the design is actually taken up by a pair of Arrow IV Artillery Systems. Following the success of the design at the Battle of Tukayyid, it spread from its origin in Clan Wolf to a handful of other Clans who recognized its usefulness. This fast assault 'Mech mounts a meager nine tons of armor, but tactical doctrine keeps it far from the front lines. The Naga is often derided because it rarely allows for the glory that comes from an individual kill.
Armament
The primary armament is the pair of Arrow IV Artillery Systems. They are capable of firing rounds that home in on a target designated by TAG and a variety of indirect munitions. Twelve double heat sinks help to keep heat in check.
Each progressive variant adds short-range defense for the glorified artillery piece. The primary configuration carries six tons of ammunition and three ER Small Lasers.
