ON2-L Orion
Created at the dawn of the Battlemech age to be the first Assault 'Mech, the Orion has faithfully served that and many other roles in the following centuries. Now considered little more than a Heavy 'mech, the Orion was once the choice of General Kerensky himself. Changed and modified over the years to suit the tides of war, the Orion can still be found in many variations throughout the Inner Sphere. The model presented here is a personal modification of the common Liao variant.
