Lynx Light Scout OmniMech
By Jeffery Baker
A scout OmniMech developed by NAIS in 3060, the Lynx was meant to
replace the Commando as the Federated Commonwealth's main light 'Mech. Designed to
run rather than fight, it has exceptional speed and a jump capacity that surpasses most
'Mechs of the same tonnage. Its main armament is the twin medium Pulse Lasers in
its left arm. The Streak SRM-2 launcher in the left torso only adds to the power of
the lasers. A Beagle active probe, coupled with a powerful “SuperMag” spotlight
means it can spot and identify enemy 'Mechs with ease. An Angle ECM unit keeps the
Mech safe when it runs for home base. A TAG equipped version is available, but it
loses the Streak SRM launcher to make room.

All graphics and information are thanks to (and are the
intellectual property of) Jeffery Baker. The tables and stat translation into
Drawing Board format are my work. Because the Lynx was designed in MechEngineer
(which takes off a 1/2 ton when an arm actuator is removed on an OmniMech), I had to
reduce the Streak SRM to a standard model to make it legal when converting it to Drawing
Board format.
