Known Variants
[color=#000000]The chronic difficulties suffered by the Luxor autocannon have resulted in a wide range of variants.[/color]
[color=#000000]The most radical variant replaces the medium-heavy autocannon with a full-feature Luxor DDX-5 heavy autocannon. To accommodate the additional two tons of weight, the medium lasers have been removed. The resulting 'Mech, the CN9-AH, has a substantially higher potential damage curve at close range. This variant suffers from two serious problems. lt can only carry a maximum of ten rounds for its heavy autocannon and it must close to within 90 meters of its target to be fully effective. As a result, this variant is usually assigned to guard duty around important installations, supply bases, and DropShips, where it has an ample supply of ammunition. It functions as a major component of storming parties, where close combat is the norm.[/color]
[color=#000000]Another common variant replaces the autocannon with one heavy and one light Angst L-type laser and another four heat sinks to dissipate the additional heat generated. Four extra tons of armor are also added. The Lyran Commonwealth uses this model quite often as a guerrilla fighter.[/color]
[color=#000000]Innumerable other variants exist in small numbers. MechWarriors should be aware that when they meet a Centurion on the battlefield, there is a very good chance that it will not have standard weaponry.[/color]
