Overview:
  Early models of the Coffin carried several tons of ammuntion, and
every test pilot called it the Coffin before it was even officially
named.  Before the engineers could redesign it, the name 'Coffin'
somehow became the official name.  Rumor has it that one of the pilots
testing the machine snuck into the computer center and managed to
enter that as the name of the 'Mech in the database.  What is more
likely was that there was some kind of clerical error.  So far, the
name has not affected sales of the 'Mech in any noticeable way.

Capabilities:
  Of the 65 tons, half is taken up by armor and weaponry.  The Coffin
is biult to be a pure assault 'Mech that can hold its own.  Heavily
ammo dependent, the ammo bins will run dry quickly in heated
engagements.  Although this is not usually good, it forces the pilots
to choose which targets to fire at.  The AC/10 is the main weapon.
The right hand actuator was removed part way into the design process
for better placement of the autocannon.  Dual SRM-6 packs give the 
Coffin its short range punch.  These SRM packs are protected by
armored shutters that open before firing.  Two medium lasers are
there for the pilot to fall back on when times get tough or ammo runs
low.

Deployment:
  Limited numbers of the Coffin are deployed by the FC, CC, and the 
FWL.  These are usually assigned to second-line units, and sometimes
can be seen in some of the Capellan warrior houses.  Mercenary units
use the Coffin as a replacement for battle losses.
