Three [[ER small laser]]s are potent backups for the high-heat ER PPC and limited ammunition.

Planning their [[OmniMech]] forces around a single mass-produced design intended to work in concert with two rarer but cutting-edge units, the ''Septicemia'' was built using proven technology with a focus towards mutual support on the battlefield, its every aspect intended to allow it to engage the [[Clan]] ''[[touman]]''s using methods of warfare they found ''[[dezgra]]''. Appearing during the [[Wars of Reaving]] when Clan warriors were even more intent on an exceedingly strict adherence of ''[[zellbrigen]]'' to avoid accusations of Taint, the ''Septicemia'' would prove frighteningly effective, earning it the nickname of '''''"Pariah"''''' by the [[Clan Diamond Shark]] forces that first faced it on [[Babylon]] in [[3072]].<ref name=TRO138>''Technical Readout: 3075'', p. 138</ref> <ref name=WoR-216>''The Wars of Reaving'', pp. 216-217 "Septicemia"</ref> Despite its role in the Wars of Reaving, the ''Septicemia'' would see service after the conflict in the ''[[touman]]''s of the four surviving [[Home Clans]]. Avoiding extinction unlike the ''[[Cephalus]]'' and ''[[Osteon]]'' due to the capture of its production plant and lack of integrated [[Nova Combined Electronic Warfare System]], while the other surviving Clans would push for a renaming of the ''Septicemia'' to excise its taint (''Void'' and ''Codex'' being popular suggestions), ''[[Khan]]'' [[Magnus DelVillar]] from [[Clan Stone Lion]] successfully campaigned against any moves to rename or remodel the design, citing that it would serve as a constant reminder of the dark crucible from which the Clans had emerged. <ref name=WoRS-15>''The Wars of Reaving Supplemental'', p. 16 "Tactics of War - Clan Strategies & Tactics - Clan Stone Lion"</ref> <ref name=WoRS-18>''The Wars of Reaving Supplemental'', p. 18 "Tactics of War - Tools of Blood"</ref> ==Weapons and Equipment== Devoid of the more experimental technology utilized by the ''Cephalus'' and ''Osteon'' to allow it to be built in higher volumes, the ''Septicemia'' saves weight with a [[275 Type II XL]] [[extralight engine]], [[55T Battle Epsilon-5 Profile]] [[endo steel]] chassis, and nine tons of [[Compound SJ8CW]] [[ferro-fibrous]] armor. While the location of its weaponry in its torsos hampers its ability to carry [[battle armor]], this was intentional to ensure hand [[actuator]]s were retained for maximization of physical combat abilities.<ref name=TRO138 /> <ref name=WoR-216/> The Prime configuration of the ''Septicemia'' is a long-range combatant. Its largest weapon is a [[HAG 40]], though it only has enough ammunition to fire twelve payloads. An [[ER large laser]] provides effective backup and gives the 'Mech staying power. Both guns are aided by a [[targeting computer]].<ref name=TRO138 /> ==Alternate Configurations== *; Alternate Configuration A : A support configuration, this second most commonly seen version of the ''Septicemia'' mounts two [[ATM 12]]s with three tons of ammunition for each, supplemented by three [[heavy small laser]]s in each arm. Three extra [[double heat sink]]s keeps heat levels in check. BV (2.0) = 1,935<ref name=TRO139 /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3075 Unabridged - The Cutting Edge'', p. 262</ref> *; Alternate Configuration A-Z : This configuration carries a [[Nova CEWS]] and [[light TAG]]. Offensive capabilities are provided by three [[improved heavy small laser]]s in each arm and an [[iATM 12]] in each side torso, fed by two tons of ammunition. 17 [[double heat sink]]s keep it cool.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving Supplemental'', p. 62</ref> BV (2.0) = 2,388<ref>''[http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/5024/ MUL online entry for ''{{PAGENAME}}'']''</ref> *; Alternate Configuration B : The third configuration excels at close-quarters combat in restricted terrain, such as an urban environment. Seven [[improved jump jet]]s enable the ''Septicemia'' to leap up to 210 meters in the air, while two [[large pulse laser]]s and three [[small pulse laser]]s allow the [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarrior]] to make full use of the 'Mech's jumping capabilities and still be accurate. Three additional [[double heat sink]]s keep heat levels under control. BV (2.0) = 2,310<ref name=TRO139 /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3075 Unabridged - The Cutting Edge'', p. 263</ref> *; Alternate Configuration B-Z : This Society variation of the B configuration uses two [[large pulse laser]]s as its main armament, supplemented by two [[small pulse laser]]s, all enhanced by a [[targeting computer]]. As with all Society 'Mechs, the [[Nova CEWS]] is present, along with a [[light TAG]]. It retains the seven [[improved jump jet]]s and 14 [[double heat sink]]s.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving Supplemental'', p. 63</ref> BV (2.0) = 2,349<ref>''[http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/5024/ MUL online entry for ''{{PAGENAME}}'']''</ref> *; Alternate Configuration C : The fourth configuration is primarily for use against non-'Mech forces. Three [[plasma cannon]]s can drive a 'Mech's heat up, but are devastating against conventional vehicles, while eight [[AP Gauss rifle]]s and two [[machine gun array]]s, each of which have four [[machine gun]]s, can effortlessly annihilate unarmored [[infantry]]. Four [[medium pulse laser]]s are effective against hardened targets, including [[battle armor]]. BV (2.0) = 2,227<ref name=TRO139 /><ref>''Record Sheets: 3075 Unabridged - The Cutting Edge'', p. 264</ref> *; Alternate Configuration C-Z : Based on configuration C, this ''Septicemia'' is also intended for battle against conventional forces. Three [[plasma cannon]]s, six [[AP Gauss rifle]]s, and six [[machine gun]]s in two [[machine gun array]]s provide devastating firepower against conventional infantry and vehicles. Two [[medium pulse laser]]s in each arm deal with more heavily armored foes, while still remaining effective against infantry. Finally, the Society's engineers equipped this model with a [[Nova CEWS]].<ref>''The Wars of Reaving Supplemental'', p. 64</ref> BV (2.0) = 2,264<ref>''[http://www.masterunitlist.info/Unit/Details/5024/ MUL online entry for ''{{PAGENAME}}'']''</ref> *; Alternate Configuration D : A hard-hitting command configuration, the D was the least-commonly fielded of all the ones seen on Babylon.
