The Incubus (VIX-3) is a 30 ton clan light mech. The mech is also known as the Vixen.

[edit] Blurb

This light 'Mech is very impressive, somehow managing to look aggressive despite its weight, a definite psychological advantage for the pilot. The arm-mounted primary weapon is supported by over-the-shoulder lasers, making the Vixen a threat at any range. Multiple machine guns and exceptional maneuverability make it a potent anti-infantry 'Mech as well.

[edit] Description

The Incubus's main weapons are two torso-mounted (C) ER Medium Lasers. The torso also mounts four (C) Machine Guns, each with 25 rounds of ammo, for dealing with infantry. At 9/14 it is a very fast mech, and has sufficient heatsinks to deal with most of its heat. It remains an unpopular mech though, mainly due to being much more expensive to maintain than the base variant. A (C) SRM 6 Streak provides extra close-range firepower. However, this makes the VIX-3 very weak at range compared to the other variants.

[edit] Combat record

One Incubus has seen service - it made four kills (3717 BV) before its death.
