Atlas

|Description=Designed by General Kerensky to be: "A Mech as powerful and impenetrable as possible, and as ugly and foreboding and conceivable, so that fear itself will be our ally." The Atlas lives up that ideology with up to 25 tons of armor and 50 ton for weapons combined with numerous electronics. The 'Deaths-Head' is more than a match for any Mech on the field.

|Strengths=With the exception of energy weapons, the Atlas is not capable of fitting a large number of similar weapons (boating), configure this chassis to engage targets at all ranges. Its high profile places most weapons very high in the chassis, perfect for sniping from behind cover. Its low top speed, and lack of agility make it suitable as a support mech, but its quick base speed, close range combat capability and massive armor creates a fearsome assault threat as well. [[ECM]] is effective for approaching enemies undetected, engaging them from flanking positions at long range. The addition of [[BAP]] and [[IFF Jammer]] in the Mercenaries expansion only serves to enhance its stealthy characteristics and long range capabilities.<ref>[http://trm.mektek.net/index_mechs.htm MechWarrior4 - Technical Reference Manual]</ref>

|Weaknesses=Use its lack of agility against itself, smaller mechs can effectively maneuver around it at close range, picking away at its weapons and armor. Legging, while not easy with the amount of armor carried, creates a virtual stationary target. Its high profile can make it difficult to find suitable cover, pick away at its head with long range weapons. The arms, especially the left, and the right mounted gun rack are primary targets when attempting to reduce its firepower.<ref>[http://trm.mektek.net/index_mechs.htm MechWarrior4 - Technical Reference Manual]</ref>
