Overview: The Hellbringer is one of the Clans' most easily recognized designs, with hexagonal openings in its huge Marauder-like arms. It also has an unusual standard configuration, with a missile rack on one shoulder and a beacon system on the other. Named the Loki by an obscure minor officer in the Armed Forces of the Federated Commonwealth, the 'Mech lives up to his description of its "utterly mad configuration," not only in the version he saw, but in all the others as well. Though the combinations of weapons may appear crazy, not a single Inner Sphere 'Mech could stand up to the Hellbringer when it appeared among Clan attacking forces.

Capabilities: The primary model of the Hellbringer is an electronic marvel. It sports Guardian electronic countermeasures, a Beagle Active Probe, and a sophisticated targeting computer. Its blend of weapons systems is a sound combination of anti-'Mech and anti-personnel, long-range and short-range, and efficient ammunition use. However, the design cannot handle the massive amounts of heat generated by all these systems. Therefore, the MechWarrior must be cautious in his choice of targets so that the cockpit heat levels do not rise too high.
The most common alternative version of the Hellbringer is used primarily for fire-support. Its Long-Range Missile launcher and Narc Missile Beacon allow it to do significant damage before the enemy can even fire. At closer ranges, this version of the Loki can still deal out severe punishment with its Autocannon and ER Large Lasers. One of the most unusual features of this design is the triple pintle-mounted machine gun perched atop the missile launcher. This mount features a broad field of fire that keeps brash infantrymen well away from the Hellbringer.
Featuring double Artemis fire-control systems for the side-by-side SRM-6 launchers on its shoulders, the Hellbringer Configuration B can cripple an enemy with one volley at close range. With a Gauss Rifle on one arm and a LB 5-X Autocannon on the other, this 'Mech is one of the most formidable opponents the Clans have deployed.

Deployment: The Hellbringer is a favorite 'Mech of Clan Jade Falcon, though it exists in the other Clan forces in smaller numbers. It is deployed on all types of missions except for reconnaissance, and always proves to be the equal of two or more Inner Sphere 'Mechs.

MechWarrior 2

The Hellbringer is an electronic marvel. Its blend of weapons systems is a sound combination of ammo efficiency and anti-'Mech capabilities, and long- and short-range functions. The only problem with this design is that it cannot handle the massive amounts of heat generated by its mixture of systems. Warriors must be cautious in their choice of targets so that cockpit heat levels do not rise too high.

MechCommander

Recognised by its missile rack on one shoulder and similar look to the Summoner, the Hellbringer was dubbed Loki by the Federated Commonwealth Armed Forces. This OmniMech's combinations of weapons may seem utterly mad. However, not a single Inner Sphere 'Mech could stand up to the Hellbringer when it first appeared to them.
