Description
The Banshee is already a budget-friendly mech for the discerning Periphery buyer and so takes well to simple budget refits. This refit of the BNC-3E swaps all the weaponry for a Chemical PPC, a Heavy Rifle with a Periphery FCS, and a trio of Small Chemical Pulse Lasers. Though the mech is entirely ammunition limited, the firepower is usually good enough to end fights before a lack of ammo does it.

Description
The Banshee 3E was originally designed for close combat, with better speed than most other assault 'Mechs. While it has heavy armor and powerful Melee attack capability, its firepower is severely lacking and it can still be flanked by lighter units.

Description
The Banshee 3M mounts respectable weaponry with better-than-average speed and armor. This comes at the cost of very poor heat management. It's good at hunting lighter units, especially if it can close to Melee range.

Description
Brought to you by the wildcards over at Periphery Armory, Inc, this Banshee-3PA is a monster of a mech. Armed with a massive battery of guns including 5 Medium Chemical Lasers, a Heavy Rifle, 2 Large Chemical Lasers, and even a Reloading Rocket Launcher 15, the BNC-3PA can destroy anything it catches. And with a massive Jury-Rigged XL 380 rated engine, it can catch quite a lot. And it has armor to back it up, with Heavy Plating keeping it in the fight longer than other comparable assaults. The Banshee, finally done right, by Periphery Armory, Inc!

Description
As the Sanctuary armies realized the potential of the Banshee, it was natural that new variants would roll out across the Sanctuary Worlds. Among them was the BNC-4D. Armed with only two weapons, they're among the largest that the Sanctuary can provide: a Double-Barrel AC/20 and a Gamma Cannon. Thanks to this combo, the Banshee has deadly firepower at any range. Four Jump Jets provide unexpected mobility while three tons of DBAC ammo keep the cannon firing.

Description
An old Inner Sphere staple assault 'Mech, the Banshee was little loved by the Sanctuary Worlds at first thanks to its poor reputation in the IS. However, Sanctuary techs quickly discovered that the Banshee's cavernous torsos were excellent for mounting weaponry and that the rugged design was easy to maintain. This endeared it to the Sanctury Worlders and they developed many variants, starting with the BNC-4E. Armed with a NPC and a Double-Barrel AC/10, as well as the standard head Small Electro-Laser, the BNC-4E proved a durable and effective assault cavalry mech.

Description
The Sanctuary Worlds developed interesting new weapons of war in their long isolation. Part of this included experiments that didn't necessarily succeed as designed. One of those is the BNC-4L, an unusual refit that saw limited production. Armed with four Large Electro-Lasers and a Scattergun/5, the -4L's claim to fame was the Supercharger it carried which boosted its ground speed, permitting incredible and unexpected bursts of speed. An AMS provided extra defensive coverage while a brace of DHS, Heat Controllers, and Heat Negators helped keep the guns in check.

Description
The Sanctuary Worlds developed interesting new weapons of war in their long isolation. Some of those mechs worked out, some of them did not. Among those that did work was the BNC-4S. Built on a super-durable Endo-Carbide frame and powered by the traditional 380-rated XL engine, the -4S uses a fairly basic loadout of a Scattergun/15 and Double-Barrel AC/15 for primary firepower while a Large Modal Laser and Medium Electro-Laser play second fiddle. An ECM Suite rounds out the defensive options while 13 DHS keep it all chilly.

Description
Designed by the Taurian Concordat after they got a hold of a shipment of Banshee-6S mechs destined for the Steiner front lines, the -6T is a decidedly Periphery take on the Banshee. The -6T keeps the 380 rated light engine but strips out all the weapons in favor of three Heavy Rifles, three Rocket Launcher 15s, and six Medium Lasers. A single Small Laser sits in the head for good measure. The mech's heat dissipation systems, though double heat sinks, cannot cope with its prodigious heat but that was not seen as an insurmountable problem since the mech was expected to engage in heavy melee combat while cooling down.

Description
The Banshee SB is a rare brawler variant of the Banshee, armed purely for point-blank combat with a battery of advanced variant Medium Pulse Lasers and nothing else. Various heat sinks and banks keep it all cool while a Supercharger and huge XL 400 engine try to get the mech into range for its weapons.

Description
This Banshee has a true pedigree as it is the mech of Victor Vandergriff, a Solaris VII gladiator who once was a Grand Champion contender. Vandergriff and his opponent Michael Searcy were dueling for the Grand Championship when their fight breached the arena walls and triggered the Solaris Riots, often considered the flashpoint of the FedCom Civil War. Siren was reported destroyed as the riots concluded, yet here it is. Siren mounts twin ER PPCs and Medium Lasers with an LB-10X Autocannon and SRM-4 backing them. Interestingly, Siren also mounts four Jump Jets, giving it a dangerous surprise.

Description
Developed by the Magistracy of Canopus during the leadup to the War of 3039, the Banshee BNC-3MC is a refit of the venerable BNC-3E. The -3MC drops the AC/5 and five heat sinks in order to mount an AC/10 with two total tons of ammo. This gives the Banshee much more close-range punch and proved an unexpected danger in the War of 3039.
