*;TBT-LG ''"Loup de Guerre"'' : A ''Trebuchet'' named for the largest trebuchet constructed on medieval [[Terra]]. The ''Loup de Guerre'' was piloted by [[Peter Chandler]] of the famous Chandlers of [[Tiber]]. Serving in the [[Regulan Hussars]], he distinguished himself during the battle on [[Tellman IV]].  When he discovered a ''[[Thunderbolt]]'' had broken through their defensive line and had begun looting their supplies, he promptly pounded it into scrap. When asked later about why he had engaged the much larger 'Mech single-handily, his only response was that "it was what one should expect of a Chandler". The ''Loup de Guerre'' was handed down through eight generations of the Chandler family before being handed to [[Devlin Stone]]'s Military Material Redemption Program after the [[Jihad]].  The BattleMech is built upon an endo steel structure and powered by an XL engine.  It is armed with a medium pulse laser and an SRM-4 in each arm; a Streak SRM-2 is mounted in both side torsos, with an AMS being added to the right torso.  The ''Loup de Guerre'' carries two tons of reloads for the SRM-4s, a single ton of reloads for the Streak SRM-2s, and a single ton of ammunition for the AMS.  It is equipped with three class IV jump jets, one in each leg and one in the center torso, and is also equipped with ten double heat sinks to keep it cool.

*;TBT-5P : Introduced in [[3025]], the 5P retains the dual right arm medium lasers, but otherwise alters the remaining loadout, downgrading the LRM racks to [[LRM-10]]s and moving the left arm launcher to the left torso, also shifting the left arm medium laser to the center torso. The weight reduction is needed to carry a [[mace|medium mace]] in the left arm.<ref name=MW5CtA>''MechWarrior 5: Mercenaries, Call to Arms''</ref>
