First fielded in 2515, the WarHammer was intended as a heavy engagement platform made to destroy or severely damage any 'Mech in its own weight class or lower. To this end, it has proven quite successful.

StarCorp was commissioned to create the WarHammer to serve as the heavy weapons platform of the Star League Defense Force, where it proved sufficient for the needs of the line regiments it had been assigned to without proving too costly to be viable. A powerful offensive battery made it ideal for advancing and breaking enemy formations, with weapons specializing in anti-'Mech, vehicle, and infantry operations.

This widespread popularity and versatility would see it spread across the Inner Sphere, with each major House fielding their own variant of WarHammer to this day.
