Overview:
Supposedly christened Daishi (Great Death) by a member of the
Draconis Combine's criminal underground, this 'Mech seems
particularly aptly named. Though the left-shoulder mounted long-range
missiles augment the 'Mech's firepower, it is the bundles of lasers,
autocannons, and other weapons in the arm pods that make the Daishi
most fearsome. Slow but lethal, the Daishi is an assault 'Mech in the
purest sense, able to wade through almost any defenses.
Capabilities:
The main configuration, by far the most common, features an
LRM-10 rack in the left torso. In addition, each arm carries a bundle
of death--an Ultra-5 autocannon, two extended-range large lasers, and
two medium pulse lasers. Double heat sinks enable it to handle the
heat generated by its multiple laser weapons.
The most common alternative configuration carries the huge Gauss
rifle in its left arm, along with plenty of ammunition. The right arm
holds three large pulse lasers. Dual Streak SRM-6 racks replace the
long-range missile launcher in the left torso, and an anti-missile
system protects the 'Mech against enemy attacks. Configuration B
has a turret-like assembly on the left
shoulder instead of the missile launcher. This boxy apparatus
contains four Ultra-2 autocannons, with a complicated ammunition feed
to the shells stored in the torso below. The left arm has a pair of
medium pulse lasers and a pair of extended-range particle projection
cannons arranged in an X-pattern. Mounted on the right arm is an LB
10-X autocannon.
Deployment:
The Daishi is a favorite 'Mech among Clan Wolf and Clan Smoke
Jaguar forces, who have used it to break through Kurita defenses time
and again. According to dubious but persistent rumors, the Draconis
Combine has managed to capture a Daishi completely intact. How Inner
Sphere MechWarriors could seize such a war machine is a mystery,
short of the defection of a Clan MechWarrior--an impossible act, from
all that we know of these warlike people.
