STK-3N Stalker History: The Reunification War began in 2577 with both the invasion of the Taurian Concordant by joint SLDF/AFFS forces and an attack on the Magistracy of Canopus led by Marion Marik, the Captain-General of the Free Worlds League. Operations against the other two major Periphery powers, the Rim Worlds Republic and the Outworlds Alliance, would soon follow. While the Star League had expected relatively short campaigns due to their numerical and technological superiority, many of the operations, especially those against the Taurian Concordant and Rim Worlds Republic, quickly bogged down. The Taurian Defense Force proved itself especially tenacious and devious. One the eve of the invasion, they implemented operation Case Amber which savaged the AFFS navy, immobilizing their ground forces through lack of transport capacity. The AFFS lost more than two dozen WarShips and JumpShips, while the Taurians lost only three. As report after report of high-intensity fighting across all four of the Periphery territories reached SLDF headquarters, the decision was made to commission a new assault class BattleMech. This ‘Mech was to be heavily armored, bristling with weapons, and capable of single handedly punching holes through enemy lines. Engineers at Triad Technologies leapt into action and by 2594 the SLDF received their first shipments of the 85- ton STK-3N Stalker just in time for the BattleMech to catch the end of the Reunification War. Protected with 13.5 tons of Valiant Lamellor armor, the Stalker has an unusually shaped chassis. Lacking true arms, much like the ubiquitous Locust, the nose of the Stalker is heavily armored. Designed to plow a path through buildings, hardened walls and fortifications, many Stalker pilots have ambushed enemy units by hiding inside of buildings and then unleashing a devastating short range volley at their light armored rear. Equipped with four Magna Mk. II medium lasers and two Thunderstroke SRM-6s, few ‘Mechs can withstand even a single volley from the Stalker’s short ranged weapons. The Stalker carries a weapon load out designed to be able to engage targets at optimal range regardless of the target’s actual distance. Two arm mounted Jackson B5c LRM-10s provide long distance and fire support capability, while matched Magna Mk. III heavy lasers are optimal for targets located between the LRM’s range and that of the medium lasers and SRMs. To manage this formidable array of weapons, the Stalker uses the sophisticated Spar 3c Tight Band targeting and tracking system. Capable of tracking two primary targets simultaneously along with numerous secondary targets, the Spar 3c is revolutionary in that it analyzes and prioritizes threats and suggests the optimal selection of weapons with which to engage it. This is even more important given the Stalker carries only 20 heat sinks. If a pilot were to fire everything simultaneously, the resulting heat would shut down the ‘Mech immediately and likely set off a catastrophic ammunition explosion destroying the machine and possibly even killing the MechWarrior. The Stalker served the forces of the Star League well for almost 200 years, then went on to serve the armies of the Successor States. So well respected is this design that when Triad Technologies’ assembly line was destroyed in the brutal fighting that immediately followed the fall of the Star League, both Irian BattleMechs and Trellshire Heavy Industries rushed to produce the Stalker at their own plants. Given its long history and ability to withstand enormous punishment on the battlefield, many Stalkers have managed survive for hundreds of years. This longevity has revealed a problem with the Titan H1 chassis the Stalker is built around. Due to the massive weight the chassis must support, the skeleton is prone to deterioration, albeit at a slow rate. It is likely the original engineers never intended the BattleMech to survive for centuries so this issue wasn’t considered a problem at the time, if it was, in fact, known at all. If the deterioration is severe enough, the problem can be ameliorated by removing 10-15 tons of equipment. Capabilities: The STK-3N Stalker removes the four medium lasers in favor of increasing its long range capabilities. The two 97 Jackson B5c LRM launchers are upgraded to the Magna Longbow-15 model and each launcher is supplied with two tons of ammunition. The Thunderstroke SRM-6s have been downgraded to Hovertec Quad racks, and an additional ton of armor has been added as well, giving it 14.5 tons of Star Guard IV. The two original Magna Mk. III heavy lasers have been retained. This makes -3N is an extremely effective siege fighter capable of maintaining an extended barrage at long range. With 20 heatsinks, an excellent rate of fire can be maintained, with the dual Hovertec Quads sufficient to finish of anything that manages to survive long enough to close with the heavily armor assault ‘Mech. Variants: The -3H variant removes the large lasers in order to mount a pair of Doombud LRM-20s, each supplied with two tons of ammunition. Nothing else has been changed.
