Description[]
The Emperor, originally a ancient model 5A, now modified and became known as the Empress of the Sun. This 'Mech was one of the few left over in COMSTAR's stockpiles on Terra. Since there were so few with many of them leaving during Kerensky's Exodus the COMGUARDs didn't want to put them into service so gave them as gifts instead.
This is a unique custom variant of the Canon Emperor designed by fan writer, AlphaMirage, for his fan book Ian Davion, Golden Lion.
Armament and Equipment[]
Due to age many of the components needed to be gutted and the Chancellor requested that prototype Triple Strength Myomer be installed ensuring the Empress of the Sun was capable of crippling even medium mechs with a single punch in the right location.
These punches are delivered via hand actuators manufactured by Grumium Creations in the Draconis Combine. Alongside them are a pair of Imperator Automatic Ultra Autocannon-5s and Medium Pulse Lasers acquired from Corsara of Northwind. A large laser occupies the left torso, while two Medium Pulse Lasers are fitted into the right side torso. One autocannon occupies each side torso alongside three tons of ammunition for the hungry cannon making, it is thus fortunate that it mounts the powerful battlefists.
