Recently upgraded with enhanced electronics and structural improvements to competed with more modern designs. |
+ | |Strengths=It is the only Light Mech capable of mounting a 4-slot Energy weapon, such as the Linked Capacitors PPC (which would give it an exceptional rate of fire at long range) or the Plasma Cannon (which would give it substantial damage potential at short- or medium-range). Possibly a good contender as a Solaris Mech against other Mechs in its class. | ||
