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.

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!

The Banshee 3Q variant lacks the long distance capabilities of its predecessor, replacing its AC10 and PPC with an AC20 and enough ammo to last in a sustained fight.

A very recent variant, the 3S downgrades the engine size making the Banshee slower, but more than makes up for this by more than doubling its firepower.

Description
An upgrade of the 3S variant using Star League technology, the 5S replaces the engine with an XL Engine and uses double heat sinks to save weight, restoring its top speed to 64.8 km/h. The 'Mech is armed for long range combat with a Gauss Rifle and two ER PPCs. For close ranges, the 'Mech has a SRM-6, four Medium Lasers, and two Small Lasers..

Description
The 6S variant of the Banshee is powered by a Light Fusion Engine and built on an Endo Steel chassis. It is armed with an LB-X Autocannon/10 for long-range combat while a Heavy Gauss Rifle is used at medium to close ranges. The 'Mech retains the Small Laser of the 3E model but is protected with fourteen and a half tons of armor.

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.
