==Overview:==
First introduced in 2610, the Damocles has earned one of the most illustrious,
yet tragic, reputations of any battlemech.
==Capabilities:==
The defining feature, and most legendary attribute, of the Damacles is its'
durability. Damocles 'mechs have been recorded taking damage that would push
even the mighty Atlas to the brink of destruction. Thick, composite armor
plates cover every inch of the 'mech, with special protrusions and overlaps
protecting the more vulnerable joints and head. The skeleton of the 'mech is
reinforced, allowing it to absorb tremendous impacts, such as those sustained
during hand-to-hand combat, repeatedly. Every piece of the 'mechs inner
workings are designed with ruggedness and redundancy in mind.
As able as the Damocles is at taking damage, it is equally as formidable on
the offense. A powerful Donal Technologies particle cannon forms the core of
its' long-range weaponry, supplemented at extreme range by a Holly LRM rack.
It is close in, however, where the Damacles truly shines. A full suite of
seven Omicron 4000 lasers can literally shred lighter 'mechs in a single
blast. A shoulder-mounted Hovertec Hex missile system rounds out the
close-range arsenal.
==Notable 'Mechs & MechWarriors:==
During the Amaris coup, Lieutenant Ronald Anderson of the SLDF found himself
leading his company in a guerilla campaign against the Rim World forces on the
planet Ingress. In battle after battle, where his friends and comrades fell
around him, Anderson and his Damocles survived. At the site of a fierce
ambush, where what remained of Anderson's company was slaughtered, a Rim
Worlds patrol found Anderson, wandering the field in his barely mobile
Damocles, completely catatonic.
==Deployment==
While the Damocles has a well-deserved reputation for ferocity in combat, that
reputation often sees the 'mechs in the middle of the most horrific fighting.
Service in a Damocles brings with it both an honored status among fellow
mechwarriors, and a sense of impending doom for the pilot.
