*; Overlord (3056) : Starting in [[3056]], [[Shipil Company]] began production of an upgraded variant of the ''Overlord'' armed primarily with advanced weaponry. There doesn't seem to be a specific name for this upgraded version beyond its production year. Replacing the nose weaponry with two [[ER PPC]]s and three [[Gauss rifle]]s while adding [[Artemis IV FCS]] to the missile launchers, the remainder of the energy weapons have been replaced with either pulse or extended-range variants, the advanced energy weaponry is hampered by the unchanged coolant system. Further, minor reinforcement was done to the ship's structure. BV (1.0) = 4,892<ref name=TRO305rV/><ref>''AeroTech 2 Record Sheets'', p. 248</ref>, BV (2.0) = 5,680{{cn}}

*; ''Overlord'' A3 : Developed in [[3058]] as a [[WarShip]] escort, the A3 removes the 'Mech bays, freeing up space and weight to boost the armor and weaponry, replacing the existing array with eleven ER PPCs, twelve Gauss rifles and ER Large Lasers, sixteen medium lasers, four Artemis-enhanced LRM-20s, four [[Large Pulse Laser]]s and ten [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s. Most notably the A3 carries an [[AR-10]] capital missile launcher and a massive teleoperated [[Kraken-T]] launcher in its nose, retaining the fighter bays while adding berths for a [[platoon]] of [[battle armor]] marines.

*; ''Overlord'' A3A : Developed alongside the A3, this version replaces the Kraken-T missile launcher with a second AR-10. It carries ten Gauss rifles, eleven ER PPCs, twelve ER Large Lasers, twelve medium lasers, four LRM-20s with Artemis, four Large Pulse Lasers, ten Medium Pulse Lasers, a [[Screen Launcher]], and four [[Laser AMS]]. This variant of the ''Overlord'' cannot carry any marines or battle armor, but does carry six fighters. BV (2.0) = 18,624<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 308</ref>
