Overview[ | ]

The CPLT-A1(C) is a Champion BattleMech. It features a modified loadout when compared to the Catapult CPLT-A1, but it has the same hardpoints. The CPLT-A1(C) can only be purchased with MC (MC), but it does provide a 30% XP bonus. It also shares the same efficiencies as the standard -A1 in the Pilot Lab tree.


Stock Loadout[ | ]

Like the standard -A1, it comes with two LRM-15s, but unlike the -A1, it adds four Streak SRM 2s and a Beagle Active Probe. It also up-rates the standard engine, slightly increasing its speed to 69.7 km/h. In order to do this, it comes with Endo-Steel, Double Heat Sinks, Ferro-Fibrous armor, and drops all of the Jump Jets.

Strengths[ | ]

  • High number of missile hardpoints allows for specialized missile focused builds.
  • Although it doesn't come with Jump Jets, it is capable of equipping just as many as the standard -A1 (four).
  • Slightly faster torso and arm speeds than the standard -A1. The Torso Pitch Speed, Torso Yaw Speed, and Arm Pitch Speed on the CPLT-A1 are 45, 80, and 180, but on the CPLT-A1(C) they're 48, 86, and 196.

Weaknesses[ | ]

  • VERY ammo reliant and becomes useless when ammo runs out.
  • With all weapons in the arms, destruction of the (relatively lightly armoured) arms results in the 'mech losing all ability to fight.
