*; Gauss : This [[3054]] version of the Rommel replaces the standard weaponry with a [[Gauss rifle]], a pair of [[medium laser]]s, and a pair of [[Machine Gun]]s in the turret. For additional anti-infantry capabilities, this version also mounts a pair of Machine Guns on the front of the tank and a single Machine Gun covers the rear. The only real weakness is that the design only provides a half ton of ammunition for all five Machine Guns. BV (2.0) = 1,178<ref>''Record Sheets: 3058 Unabridged (Inner Sphere)'', p. 157</ref>

*;Sealed : This [[3076]] variant uses [[Environmental Sealing]] to participate in amphibious attacks. It carries [[Heavy Ferro-Fibrous]] armor and a [[Guardian ECM Suite]] to protect itself, and trades in its weaponry for a [[Heavy PPC]] and a [[Streak SRM-6]]. To defend itself in the water, it also carries a bow-mounted [[SRT-4]] system. Two MG provide additinal protection on both sides against conventional infantry.<ref>''Technical Readout: 3085'', p. 191</ref> BV (2.0) = 1,270<ref>''Record Sheets: 3085 Unabridged — Old is the New New'', p. 42</ref>

*;Howitzer Prototype : This version of the Rommel removes the standard weaponry and replaces it with weapons that are allegedly easier for newer troops to use and less likely to fall victim to electronic warfare or Anti-Missile systems. The main gun is a [[Long Tom Artillery Cannon]]. This weapon can inflict massive amounts of damage on the target and its immediate surroundings and it doesn't require a great gunner. The LRM-5 was replaced by a [[Thunderbolt 5]] launcher to provide more punch at the cost of range. Two front-mounted ER medium lasers provide ammunition-independent fire. Twelve tons of [[Heavy Ferro-Fibrous]] armor protects the tank. BV (2.0) = 1,507<ref>''Experimental Technical Readout: Steiner'', p. 11</ref>

*;Howitzer : The [[3087]] production model of the Rommel Howitzer replaces the XL engine with a standard fusion engine to reduce costs. This reduces the tank's top speed to 54 km/h. This version also carries a half-ton less of the Heavy Ferro-Fibrous armor, but the weapons systems remain the same as the prototype's.
