6mm Trebuchet TBT-3C

thingiverse

The Trebuchet, affectionately known as the Trenchbucket, is a top-of-the-line medium weight BattleMech that provides unparalleled long- and short-range fire support for its size. Designed from the ground up to work seamlessly with other units in a lance, the Trebuchet stands out among pre-Clan 'Mechs for its exceptional teamwork capabilities. The TBT-5N boasts impressive firepower, ten heat sinks, seven and a half tons of armor, and a top speed of 86.4 km/h for unmatched mobility. However, its endurance is compromised by its limited ammunition capacity, forcing it to rely on laser weapons once its missile launchers run dry. Additionally, the Trebuchet is outgunned at close range when operating independently. The original TBT-3C was designed specifically for the SLDF, featuring two Artemis IV-equipped LRM-15s with CASE, four medium lasers, double heat sinks, an Endo-Steel chassis, and a 300-rate Extra Light Fusion Engine. However, due to the First Succession War's devastating impact on Corean Enterprises' resources, the company was forced to redesign the 'Mech without advanced technology to maintain production lines. The Trebuchet has been exported from Mechwarrior Online, a free-to-play game available at mwomercs.com. The design originates from the original Battletech strategy game, which can be found at battletechgame.com. This description is sourced directly from Sarna.net's wiki entry on the Locust.
