Description
The Grasshopper GHR-1M Is a custom mech created by Pirate Leader Midnight Moonbeam. The chassis was salvaged by Captain Midnight Moonbeam and was converted to carry several Light Rotary Rifles and a variety of support weapons in order to shore up his unit's over-reliance on ammunition as well as a lack of heavy mechs in their arsenal.

Description
The Grasshopper has developed a steady reputation as a highly mobile and very durable skirmisher design but that was not its origianl intended design. Originally, the 2778 prototype was intended as a stealth mech for deep raiding but there were difficulties incorporating the stealth tech and it was changed to the GHR-5H known and beloved today. However, ComStar discovered the original during the Succession Wars and solved the technical challenges, releasing the -4R as intended. While its weapon load is very similar to the -5H, the Null Signature System it mounts is very different and completly changes the chassis. The -4R sees limited deployment in ComStar and Word of Blake forces, where it has a favorable reputation among pilots.

Don't be fooled by its whimsical name-the Grasshopper is a killer that specializes in hunting down light and medium 'Mechs. Its superb jump ability and good armor allow it to get behind foes easily to bring its all-Energy weapons to bear.

Description
An upgrade of the Grasshopper using Star League technology, the 5J replaces the large laser with a extended range model, replaces the LRM rack with a Streak SRM-2 model, and removes the two torso-mounted medium lasers for an Anti-Missile System.

Description
Where the Grasshopper-5H has a Large Laser, the simple weapon swap -5N has a PPC, giving it slightly increased range and damage at the cost of heat efficiency. Don't get lax around one though, it's still plenty capable of killing you stone dead with a barrage of lasers.

Description
An advanced tech upgrade, the Grasshopper-6J splits from the common Grasshopper trend of one big laser and some little ones by instead having two big lasers, in this case Large Pulse Lasers. These are backed up by 5 ER Medium Lasers and a Streak SRM-4 for close-range firepower. It otherwise has Grasshopper armor and speed.

Description
This Grasshopper has been heavily modified from its baseline configuration. Armed with a variety of high-tech weapons as well as clad in both a Chameleon Light Polarization Shield and a Null Signature System, the Kamakiri as it is called is the final word in heavy stealth operations. A Large and a Small Variable-Speed Pulse Laser provide primary firepower while 4 Streak SRM-2s back them up. A set of BattleMech Claws on the left hand give it some brawling potential while TSM amps up the Claws even further.

Description
Patterned after famous MechWarrior Tor Miraborg's personal ride during the 3039 Ronin Wars between the Free Rasalhague Republic and rogue Draconis Combine units, the Mjolnir has proven a powerful arena combatant. Armed with a long-range loadout of a PPC, a Large Laser, and a Gauss Rifle, the Mjolnir favors destroying enemies at range instead of point blank like most mechs of its lineage.
