ZEU-5Sx Zeus History: The Zeus was one of the few BattleMechs that was built after the fall of the Star League. Built by Defiance Industries at the behest of the Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces, is has become the iconic Lyran BattleMech since its introduction in 2787. With a respectable top speed of close to 65 kph, the 80- ton Zeus is capable of keeping with many much lighter units. Designed to provide long range fire support, the Zeus carries an LRM-15 as well as a Class 5 autocannon. These weapons are supplemented by a Thunderbolt A5M heavy laser and a pair of Defiance B3M medium lasers. Carrying 17 heat sinks and armored with 11.5 tons of Valiant Lamellor armor, the Zeus has a long history of capable and dependable performance. The original design, the -5T, carried an Ultra AC/5 instead of the current Model J, featured an extendedrange heavy laser, and utilized the advanced Artemis IV fire control system to improve the accuracy of its long range missiles. To keep it cool, it used fourteen double strength heat sinks. A companion model, the -5S, was introduced just a year later in 2788. Replacing the ballistic weapon in favor of an extended-range particle cannon, the -5S carried seventeen heat sinks and utilized superior Ferro-Fibrous armor. Over the intervening years, however, even the prestigious Defiance Industries has suffered from the slow and steady decline of technology and has been forced to downgrade the mighty Zeus to accommodate today’s reduced level of technology. Rumors persist, however, that engineers at Defiance Industries plan to return to the PPC, albeit the standard model on a future version. It is believed the model would also carry two additional heat sinks to help offset the additional load from the particle cannon. Notable ‘Mech and MechWarriors: Major Moria Tolan A battalion commander in the mercenary group The Filthy Lucre, currently under a long term contract with House Steiner, Major Tolan has accumulated over two dozen ‘Mech kills and is considered one of the most feared MechWarriors along the Lyran border with the Free Worlds League. The Filthy Lucre is best known for its instrumental role in the capture of Dixie as the Second Succession War was winding down. Facing elements of the Marik Militia backed by the elite Third Fusiliers of Oriente, Major Tolan’s heavy ‘Mech battalion successfully stormed the ancient SLDF Castle Brian located there taking the final Marik stronghold and prompting the Third Fusiliers to retreat off planet. Her venerable ZEU-5S, lacking the advanced Star League weaponry it had once carried, was all but destroyed as she led the charge against the heavily fortified Castle Brian but not before she singlehandedly destroyed two major defensive turrets along with a Fusilier Trebuchet and Cicada, clearing the way for the rest of her unit to continue the assault. As The Filthy Lucre carried the fight into the broad underground tunnels, passages, and massive bays of the former Star League base, a Fusilier Crusader took an ammunition hit resulting in a spectacular explosion. The resulting damage to the interior walls revealed a previously undiscovered storage chamber. Once Tolan’s forces had taken full control of the facility, she immediately dispatched the battalion’s technical team to examine the contents of the hidden chamber. There, they discovered a small cache of lostech, including an advanced fusion engine core and a supply of lightweight engine shielding. Claiming the cache as spoils of war, Tolan ordered the technicians to replace the damaged reactor core of her Zeus with the Star League version and to incorporate as much of the lighter engine shielding as possible. Rebuilding her Zeus using the repair facilities located in 133 the captured Castle Brian, the technicians succeeded in replacing the core along with about a third of the original engine shielding. The new core and shielding proved to take up considerably more space, however. Not only was the entire center torso taken up by the new engine, but the shielding also extends into both the right and left torso as well. Much to the technician’s surprise, they discovered the resulting power plant, while physically larger, weighed 4.5 tons less than the original Pitban 320. This weight savings allowed them to replace the original Type J autocannon with the larger Defiance Killer Type T model as well as add an additional half ton of armor. When Major Tolan powered on her rebuilt Zeus for the first time, she was shocked to discover the regenerative cooling system of the Star League fusion core incorporated double-strength heat sinks. She immediately ordered the technicians to remove all of the original single heat sinks located outside of the engine compartment. In exchange, she had the technicians expand the size of both of the magazines, giving her Zeus a total of 16 rounds for the Coventry Star Fire LRM-15 and twenty rounds for the Type T autocannon. She also had them reorient the rear mounted medium laser to her forward fire arc while moving the second from the now overcrowded center torso to the right side. The result is an astounding piece of technology. When Defiance Industries, maker of the 80-ton Zeus, heard of her customized version, they immediately offered her a full lance of factory new Zeus’, but she refused the offer. Subsequently, she was granted an extensive landhold on Dixie and given a noble title. Her Zeus is likely among the most advanced BattleMechs left in the Inner Sphere today.
