One of the most well-known Assault Mechs for it's venerable reputation as a relentless war monger of nowdays era, merciless in design and unstoppable in firepower, aswell as being impeccable for it's battle value, the Blood Asp is a steamrolling machine the likes of what has never been done before.

Constructed in two main stages, the first one being a rigourous build phase on the assembly lines of the Lyran Alliance, the second one consisting of a multi-jump point transportation to New Avalon, this Steiner-Davion mech was a complete replica engineering of the real Blood Asp mech that originally was created by the outisder exiles, the Clans.

When Davion's Federated Suns industry leaders requested House Steiner's a complete rework of the idea, Steiner complied in duplicating these blueprints for Davion's usage. Then, when they entered Federated Suns territory, they only had to put together the under part of the chassis with the torso, and painting it accordingly.

Feared by most pilots, this version of the Blood Asp has a devastating 6x Extended Heavy PPC, wich can be arranged in Chain-Fire configurations or Alpha-Strike by wealthy lance commanders or point commanders that can usually afford them. Heat management was never an issue with this build, because it used an XL Thorodan Engine wich is consuming large amounts of pure ressource.
