==Description==
 
==Description==
The creation of the '''''Savage Coyote''''' was a direct result of both the warriors of [[Clan Coyote]] clamoring for new weapons to use and the election of [[Khan]] [[Sullivan Koga]] in [[3052]]. Following the development of [[Advanced Tactical Missile]] technology, the ''Savage Coyote'' [[OmniMech]] was created as a showcase OmniMech. The [['Mech]] was also part of Khan Koga's attempts to revitalize the fading [[Clan]] that invented the OmniMech. This assault 'Mech uses an [[extralight fusion engine]] to save enough weight to devote forty-five tons of space to modular equipment and fifteen tons of armor. The base chassis contains fourteen fixed [[double heat sink]]s.<ref>''Field Manual: Warden Clans'', p. 191-192</ref><ref>''Technical Readout: 3067'', p. 130</ref>

==Weapons and Equipment==
The primary configuration of the ''Savage Coyote'' makes use of a pair of the largest ATM launcher, the [[ATM 12]], and enough ammunition to make use of all the modes of fire for each of the launchers. An [[ER PPC]] provides long-range firepower, while an [[LB-X Autocannon/10]] and three [[ER medium laser]]s are useful at medium range. At close range, a pair of [[ER Small Laser]]s help. [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarriors]] must carefully manage heat levels, even with three additional [[double heat sink]]s.

==Alternate Configurations==
*; Alternate Configuration A : Though the first alternate configuration was focused on close-range combat, it carried an [[ER large laser]] and a [[Gauss rifle]] for long-range work. Three [[ATM 6]]s are effective at all ranges, while a trio of [[Medium Pulse Laser]]s aid with the devastating attack. Enough [[jump jet]]s for up to ninety meters at a time helped MechWarriors get into close range, while an [[anti-missile system]] granted added defensive capability.<ref name=TRJp34f /> BV (1.0) = 2,536<ref name=TRO/>, BV (2.0) = 2,851<ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 225</ref> or 2,852<ref name=TRJp34f />

*; Alternate Configuration B : This variant is effective at all ranges. A pair of [[ER Large Laser]]s and a [[Large Pulse Laser]] combine with an [[Ultra Autocannon/5]] to provide an effective long-range punch. Six [[Small Pulse Laser]]s aid at knife-fighting range and can quickly devastate conventional [[infantry]]. Two pairs of [[ATM 3]]s provide support at all ranges. Six additional double heat sinks are also carried.<ref name=TRJp34f /> BV (1.0) = 1,867<ref name=TRO/>, BV (2.0) = 2,284<ref name=TRJp34f /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3067 Unabridged'', p. 226</ref>

Three [[ER medium laser]]s provide medium to close range support, while a [[Targeting Computer]] aids the accuracy of all the energy weapons.

*; Alternate Configuration J : This version uses five [[Improved Jump Jet]]s to provide a 150 meter jump radius. It carries nineteen double heat sinks to dissipate the heat from four [[Small Pulse Laser]]s, two [[ER Large Laser]]s, a Large Pulse Laser, and an [[LB 10-X]] Autocannon.

It's equipped with four Large Pulse Lasers, two [[Small Pulse Laser]]s, two [[Flamer]]s, and an [[ER medium laser]]. It also has a [[Light TAG]] and [[Light Active Probe]].

*; Alternate Configuration Z : Developed by [[The Society]] this ''Savage Coyote'' mounts a [[Nova CEWS]] system, an [[iATM 12]] in the side torsos, a [[HAG 30]] in the left arm, while the right arm carries a pair of ER medium lasers and a single [[ER Large Pulse Laser]]. These [[Experimental Technology|experimental]] systems provide the ''Savage Coyote'' Z pilot with a chance to destroy better trained Clan pilots.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving Supplemental'', p. 84</ref>
