Description

Developed by House Liao in the late 25th century in response to House Davion aggression, the Slowpoke is an early-era experimental design with how small a BattleMech could be while remaining useful. Arguably, the Slowpoke fails on the usefulness factor, but the Capellans have kept it in service regardless. Built on a miniscule 20-rated fusion engine and armed with merely a single Medium Laser, the Slowpoke is indeed one of the slowest 'Mechs ever built. At least it has two jump jets to help it move around in its preferred urban environments.

Description

Developed by House Liao in the late 25th century in response to House Davion aggression, the Slowpoke is an early-era experimental design with how small a BattleMech could be while remaining useful. Arguably, the Slowpoke fails on the usefulness factor, but the Capellans have kept it in service regardless. The SLP-3U is a Capellan upgrade of the Succession Wars-era -2U which brings the design up to modern standards. Using an XL engine and Small Cockpit, the -3U upgrades the engine to a 40-rated XL, which gives enough weight to mount Stealth Armor, a trio of jump jets, and two Medium Lasers for firepower.

Description

Developed by House Liao in the late 25th century in response to House Davion aggression, the Slowpoke is an early-era experimental design with how small a BattleMech could be while remaining useful. Arguably, the Slowpoke fails on the usefulness factor, but the Capellans have kept it in service regardless. The SLP-4U is an Endo-Steel rebuild of the design, resting on a 60-rated XL engine for power and using Ferro-Fibrous armor for extra saved weight. It uses this extra speed and tonage to bring two Machine Guns and an ER Small Laser to bear against its enemies.

Using a 40-rated XL engine and Small Cockpit, the -5U uses its free weight saved to mount an ER Medium Laser and four Rocket Launcher-10s for surprisingly high burst damage.

Description

Developed by House Liao in the late 25th century in response to House Davion aggression, the Slowpoke is an early-era experimental design with how small a BattleMech could be while remaining useful. Arguably, the Slowpoke fails on the usefulness factor, but the Capellans have kept it in service regardless. The SLP-6U is the most cutting-edge variant of the chassis and uses the best technology the Capellan Confederation could acquire. Powered by a 170-rated XL engine, clad in Heavy Ferro-Fibrous armor, built on a Composite structure frame, and equipped with a Small Cockpit, the -6U is unbelievably fast, one of the fastest designs ever fielded. It uses its ridiculous speed to bring its sole weapon, a Clan-grade Heavy Medium Laser bought from Clan Diamond Shark, to bear. For protection, it uses a Chameleon Light Polarization Shield (of unknown provenance) and for heat management 10 DHS keep it all frosty.
