A Succession Wars era variant of the standard Highlander HGN-733, the 733P removes the Autocannon-10 and its 2 tons of ammo for a Particle Projection Cannon and 7 Heat Sinks.
The drawbacks for this loadout change are minor, but they are there. Chief among them is that unlike the AC-10, the PPC has a minimum range. This is a disadvantage at pointblank range. Besides that, the 733P is also marginally more expensive than the standard 733.
In every other area, the 733P is an improvement. The PPC has longer range over the AC-10. It also doesn't rely on ammunition, giving the Highlander more battlefield longevity. The removal of that ammunition also makes the Highlander less vulnerable to ammo explosions; the original 733 has a startling SEVEN tons of ammo onboard!
The HGN-733P is a very well-balanced Assault Mech. Mobile for its weight, with near-unbreakable levels of armor and equipped with a solid weapons loadout. Its extensive ammo bins mean it's built more for longer campaigns than short battles (that second ton of SRM ammo in particular is almost always untouched), but besides that?
It's one of the best Assault Mechs you can pilot in 3025 and second to none. |
