Thunderbolt

The Thunderbolt started production in 2491 as a planetary-assault 'Mech, and in fact was one of the heaviest 'Mechs that could be produced at that time. Since then the 'Mech, known affectionately as the "T-Bolt" or sometimes as the "Thud", has had its classification changed as larger 'Mechs were built. Thanks to periodic updates, it is still feared and respected by many. With its varied arsenal, the Thunderbolt remains one of the best-armed 'Mechs, making it capable of serving in many roles. It is also an incredibly well-armored 'Mech, rivaling or exceeding the amount of armor carried by some assault 'Mechs. One downside to the Thunderbolt armament is poor heat management. The Thunderbolt is also noted for featuring an exceptionally roomy cockpit, even when compared to that of the Atlas or BattleMaster.

Because of its eclectic weapons mix, the Thunderbolt does not have just one primary weapon. Its longest-range weapon is a Delta Dart LRM-15 missile launcher mounted in the right torso fed by a two-ton reload bin in the center torso. Next in its long range arsenal is a Sunglow Type 2 Large Laser mounted in the right arm (or ExoStar Large Laser), which provides the Thunderbolt with respectable medium to long-range firepower. As ranges close, the Thunderbolt is able to bring its three Diverse Optics Type 18 medium lasers and a Bical SRM-2 missile launcher (or Harvester SRM-2) into play. All three medium lasers are mounted in the left torso while the SRM launcher and one ton of reloads are mounted in the right. Finally for anti-infantry work the Thunderbolt has two Voelkers 200 Machine Guns (or SperryBrowning Machine Guns) with one ton of ammo in the left arm.

While an impressive arsenal, the Achilles' heel of the Thunderbolt is its miserly fifteen heat sinks which cannot cope with firing so many heat-intensive weapons. Thunderbolt pilots must take extra care to manage their heat levels lest they shut down or cause their ammo to cook off, and many will prefer to fight within bodies of water to better cool off their 'Mechs. Indeed most commanders will order their Thunderbolts into a waterhole at the outset of a battle so that they may fire their weapons more rapidly than normal.

The thirteen tons of armor protecting the Thunderbolt, although no longer the most carried on a 'Mech, is still impressive given the fact many current assault models sport less protection than this ancient design. The thirteen and a half ton fusion engine powering the Thunderbolt gives it a maximum speed of 64.8 km/h.

The original TDR-1C Thunderbolt was the first BattleMech of Earthwerks Limited, as produced from their new plant on Tikonov. Despite the Confederation's relative inexperience with BattleMech technology, Earthwerks' Thunderbolt was impressive. The "T-bolt" set records in time between prototype and production, despite starting from scratch. The Thunderbolt's formidable performance caught the attention of the Confederation's neighbors and made Earthwerks a tremendous success.

Within fifteen years, Earthwerks expanded anti-spinward into the Free Worlds League, choosing Keystone as the location to produce their upgraded TDR-5S. Olivetti Weaponry on Sudeten also picked up the design following their formation. During the Succession Wars this made House Steiner and House Marik the largest users of Thunderbolts, although they were eager to sell the design to the other Successor States. Thus Thunderbolts remained a traditionally Capellan 'Mech too, at least until the Fourth Succession War and Andurien Wars. The Taurian Concordat was one of the largest users of the Thunderbolt in the Periphery thanks to both Vandenberg Mechanized Industries and Taurus Territorial Industries acquiring and producing the 'Mech from their factories on Pinard and Taurus respectively, with many being sold to mercenary bands.

Both Earthwerks and Olivetti introduced new Thunderbolt variants utilizing lostech just before the Clan Invasion, while the Taurian factories continued to churn out older models. When Sudeten was conquered by Clan Jade Falcon, the Olivetti factory was lost to the Inner Sphere, and, though using outdated technology by Clan standards, it was still producing Thunderbolts into 3054. Several years later, Earthwerks created an update to the aging Thunderbolt in the TDR-9M variant but ran into trouble with Irian BattleMechs Unlimited. Irian had just recently introduced the Tempest as their replacement for the ancient 'Mech and lobbied the League Central Coordination and Command to put a stop to any new Thunderbolts. A legal fight was brewing up when the Word of Blake stepped in and negotiated a compromise: the two designs would fight each other in a combat trial, with the winning design used to supply the Blakist military. The TDR-9M won and starting in April 3067 the Word of Blake began receiving their shipments of new Thunderbolts, followed shortly thereafter by the Free Worlds League Military.

New toy for the gats - Steiner DBAL D2

So initial impressions - I knew about the problems specific to Steiner units going into this like the prolapsing plussy(tm) possibility or the general fat fuckedness of the D2 specifically, and knowing what to expect has definitely made it a bit easier to settle into The weight is the main and obvious drawback and the remote cable ports work just fine if you aren't gripping and ripping like a moron.

There's still a few things about these I'm not a huge fan of, but mostly just related to the lack of aftermarket There aren't really any alternative mounts for these short of modifying existing ones to fit The availability of spare parts (namely spare lens caps) is practically nonexistent And the fire button on the back, while in an incredibly convenient position, I find rather mushy, no nice tactile click, and it's such a small button with a high guard that it's annoying to press, especially if your fingernails are any less than freshly cut

THAT BEING SAID These are as close to a military FP laser you can get that you can actually take out repair services for and that makes all the difference for me The illuminator seems nice and crisp and has a pretty wide range of focus The fact that I can zero this thing in the daytime using the visible laser which the IR laser is slaved to is a great benefit Not to mention there are bolt-on front sight blades for these lasers to use in place of a typical FSB or folding front sight

tl;dr: Pros:

Powerful af for a civ laser

Good overall form factor

You can actually get customer service for these things

Cons:

fucking heavy lol

lack of alternative rail mounts

self-removing crane ports (if you're dumb)

For frame of reference, an ancient 1990's AIM-1/DLR somehow weighs less than the DBAL D2 lmao
