The UrbanMech is a light Inner Sphere BattleMech. The UrbanMech is designed for just what its name suggests, urban combat and defense. This is achieved by making the UrbanMech the slowest light BattleMech in existence with a top speed of only 32.4 km/h. All variants have a stock jump jet distance of 17 meters, but can add another ton of jump jets for a maximum of 32 meters. On an open battlefield, speeds that slow would be a death warrant for any light 'Mech, but in the streets and alleys of an urban labyrinth, even with its slow speed, the UrbanMech is free to fight and fade back into the city as it sees fit.
The most notable feature of the Urbanmech is it's Torso's ability to turn a full 360 degrees. This allows it to rapidly engage targets from any direction, further adding to it's "Urban" combat abilities.
Currently the UrbanMech is now available for , C-bills, or from the MWO Gift Shop.
The UM-R60L replaces the AC/10 from the -R60 with an AC/20, at the expense of some armor. With only seven shots worth of ammo, you'll need to make every shot count.
